Vodafone starts giving iPhone 3G in India to the registered users

When I first wrote this post regarding the price of iPhone 3G in India on August 16, I received a lot of abusive comments, mostly saying that the price that I had given in the post is incorrect as even the employees of Vodafone and Airtel does not know the price of iPhone 3G in India. Even my friends said that the price is incorrect, you are putting false information on your blog. But to all those who had criticised me of quoting wrong price of iPhone 3G in India, I would like to say that Vodafone have started sending out mails to the ones who had already booked the iPhone with Vodafone, since the stock will be limited it will be only available to the one’s who had booked with them earlier and that to till the stock lasts.

I am putting the entire email by Vodafone <iPhone@vodafone.in> to my friend who had booked the iPhone with Vodafone. Please look closely to the price that they are offering, it is exactly same that I had given in the above referenced post. So guys please think a lot before you are giving abusive comments.
