It is the Vodafone’s “buy iPhone on EMIs” SMS which made me write this. It goes on like this - “Now, the iPhone you have been waiting for is even more wonderful. Buy iPhone on EMIs of Rs 2470 only. What are you waiting for {crap}”. Here’s the link to complete plan - http://www.vodafone.in/existingusers/products/pages/iphone3g_emi.aspx

Enough is enough. Frankly, this piece of art from Apple is in bad hands now. First, they (Vodafone) bully the Indian market and launch iPhone at an exorbitant price. Then, they come out with this EMI shit and try to make it “look” affordable. Aw cmon guys, iPhone is a phenomenon. Ride on it. Don’t try these cheap sales shit to sell it. It’ll sell like hotcakes by itself. Just price it in 15K range and see your iPhone business have scaling problems!

I personally don’t like Airtel much for their services. But they are marketing the iPhone nicely. They are giving it what it deserves on its way to become a solid business phone brand in India.

Whatever good or bad is there with iPhone, remember, there can only be one iPhone.
