Vodafone India unveils iPhone 3G price

 

iPhone 3G hits India on this Friday and out of the two exclusive operators, Vodafone is the first one to reveal the prices. And the prices SUCK. If you have got enough money to burn then 8GB will cost you Rs. 31,000 ($709) and Rs. 36,100 ($826) for 16GB. This price does not include any data or voice plans and the contract details are still unconfirmed.

Airtel is yet to reveal the iPhone prices and we still reckon they’ll pwn Vodafone’s gameplan.
