If you had read my article on Vodafone to launch iPhone for 13k in India on my personal blog, I had stated that I would publish more info regarding the iPhone 3G on my personal blog…but for some reasons I am forced to post it here on TechnoBitez. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Anyways, let me get back to the topic.

It was Vodafone to launch the iPhone 3G in the month of August, but it’s now Airtel too. I got the news stating that Bharti Airtel has scheduled to launch the iPhone 3G on August 22, 2008 here in India. Pricing details have not yet been released but would keep you updated if I am

“iPhone has been the iconic technology revelation of this year. Airtel has been at the forefront of innovation and customer delight in the Indian telecom sector. Introducing iPhone 3G to India further underscores our commitment to enrich the communication experience of all Airtel users.”

As said by Sanjay Kapoor, the president of Mobile Services at Bharti Airtel.

The customers going with Airtel will be able to purchase the iPhone 3G at Airtel Relationship Centers. Also, Airtel customers can get more information and book their iPhone 3G here.

P.S Also got the news that Vodafone would be launching it on the same day.

From CNET: Well, well, what do we have here? Engadget Mobile (via Internet Tablet Talk) caught wind of a WiMax-enabled Nokia N810 Internet Tablet after it was posted on Nokia Europe’s Web site. Unfortunately, the link to the product page isn’t working at the moment, but you can pretty much figure out that it’s like the Nokia N810 we reviewed earlier this year but with WiMax support. Rumor has it that we’ll see the debut of this device at CTIA 2008, so check back next week when our show coverage begins to see if this puppy shows its pretty face in Las Vegas.
