Iphone Update

By: demesne | Posted Jun 11, 2008 | General | 283 Views

What was Steve jobs thinking when he introduced iphone 2.0 day before yesterday?


For a person using Iphone in India for a long time this update means nothing nothing at all.


1) App store --- I already have Installer


2) 3G --- The speculation of 3G being launched in India has been going on from 2003 ( 5 years and still no 3G)


3) GPS --- sure how many time have you got lost ? In India if you get lost, you ask the nearest man where to go and he will tell you. At some level iphone already had a locationing service in iphon 1.0


Also you need GPRS active for that -- which is very very costly.. vodafone has a 899 unlimited plan. I don't know about Airtel. Don't even think about a non unlimited plan if you are planning to use gps you will be shelling out more than 899.


4) Exchange server --- I don't want to be connected to office 24x7. Get a life utside office.. also will your company IT team let you use one ?? big big ?


so what is there in the new version that there was not there in 1.0 ?


ya price 199$+ taxes hmmm but us price are different with subsidies and cheap electronics price


it will still be around 15K - 18K not 9K+2K taxes = 11K


I'm disappointed :( probably was expecting too much from apple.
