Joke of the year : iphone India launch

As expected, greedy Apple and even greedier mobile operators Airtel and Vodafone have totally screwed up on the pricing of the iphone in India. At 31000 for the 8 GB version and 36100 for the 16 GB one, I doubt they will be selling more than a handful. Personally, I never intended to buy the iphone, but was hoping for competitive pricing that would force Nokia to cut prices on its other smartphones (like the N82). At this price, I doubt they would even bother.
