India’s leading GSM telecom operators - Airtel and Vodafone - are set to bring Apple’s latest iPhone called iPhone 3GS to India in August 2009. The new iPhone 3GS that offers a new camera, faster data transfers, video recording, compass and voice control - was unveiled in US earlier this week. In India Apple has exclusive tie-ups with Bharti and Vodafone and this is one of the few markets where the US-based technology firm Apple has a tie-up with two biggest Indian Telecom operators. Apple had issued a guidance saying the iPhone 3GS would make its debut in India by August 2009 but refused to specify the date and the pricing for the country. The guidance also added that the handset would be launched in 31 other countries in August 2009. Additionally as per information made public by Apple, the iPhone 3GS will go on sale in 10 countries including the US on June 19 and another 32 countries in the month of July 2009. In India the new iPhone from Apple is set to face competition from smartphones such as Nokia N97 and similar offerings from Samsung and BlackBerry. Another handset that can be a potential threat to Apple’s new product is the Palm’s Pre which has just hit the US market but is currently not available in India. But unlike handsets such as Nokia N97, the new iPhone 3GS will have a unique advantage as it has over 100,000 applications and also enjoys the support of the most vibrant and innovative developer community in this space. This implies Apple product is more than just a technically superior handset but more of a software platform with thousands of custom made applications. However, the catch is that the earlier model of the iPhone’s India entry has been a huge failure both in terms of sales coupled with a steep price tag and poor advertising which resulted in the brand failing to connect with customers here. Few iPhone 3GS features: 1. Elegant and easy e-mail management 2. Creatively using Cut, Copy, Paste 3. Go places with GPS 4. Call control 5. Shoot, edit and send To know more about iPhone, please visit iPhone Official Website Apple iPhone 3GS News Resource: Internet
