No, the prices have not been officially announced yet. The announcement, I believe, was only to make the people aware that they have a monster phone coming up.

Oh, by the way, I have a question for James, Ewan and the other hardcore mobile users:
Given a choice, which one would you go for, the iPhone 16 GB or the N96?

I am an Airtel subscriber myself, and I'm happy with the EDGE connection that I get. Yet, there are a number of times that the EDGE speeds are just not bearable. The iPhone is touted as a remarkable internet device, but living with sub-standard EDGE speeds doesn't do it justice. And for people in areas where there is no EDGE, god bless.

And no, iPhone has not added any regional fonts in the iPhone. In fact, it even has the same number format as the US. It is the same firmware that's available in the US, but that works with Indian carriers.

remind you all no other country other than india you get free “incoming” calls for prepaid. this is not available in any other country as far as i know. (may be in s.africa too)

the best mobile phone service is being experienced in india. it is infact better than hong kong as i use both extensively.

i am not sure if iphone added the indian language fonts in the iphone. if not…then i am disappointed.
