USED iPhone 3G can be bought from 14k to 16k from USA via eBay.com easily. Bought 3 of them for my friends around 3 months ago. :ohyeah:

Can you pls tell process which you followed ?

Did you purchase using Indian credit card ? What about customs & delivery in India ?
 
^ For all 3 iPhones I did payment via PayPal on eBay.com.

One of them I got delivered in USA itself to my friend who brought it here ... so only around 8 USD shipping charge for delivery in USA

Rest two of them I got delivered in India ... Shipping charge 35 USD total ... but I asked seller to show value of package as 60-70 USD ... so no customs duty applied :)

EDIT: Both the iPhones were in one courier and it was marked as GIFT :D
 
yes but sometimes u can have a very bad experience wid the customs officer if at he doubts the veracity of ur price claims and checks it.
 
guys opera mini 5 is amazing.run it on nokia 5800,5230/33.really good surfing experience even on EDGE networks.(note i said surfing and not downloading).for few mb downloads i.e songs etc its pretty okay.i think this is the best solution till 3g becomes ubiquitous in india.i can do my mail,read news,netbanking,shopping,networking all from my phone.and i think nokia has a big lead in india in term of services offered.nokia messaging,gps maps,email,online file storage,wireless sync over cloud.all just works once you set up your account.android services in india still lag behind in terms of handsets and bugs.
 
Ahem so marking iPhone as 10k gift.. need more ideas on it..

@drsingh

you are right, Nokia is good too, but big screen of iPhone lures for best exp.

On 3G, well its just 2 more months & we have almost all leading players launching 3G
 
best I would suggestyou is any of nokia communicator...!!!

First I used my 9300i then Nokia 9500

tried my brothers E90 also..it`s superb...

theres`a huge difference in downloading speed when I connect my communicator and some other phn ( ihave tried iphone,Nokia 6300, htc touch viva)..!!
 
Mr. Khurana is right,I have the exact same experience,E90 is still the best device for surfing,Iphone does not support flash content,otherwise it is decent but way too overpriced,I have seen another phone with very good browsing capability, htc hd2 aka leo,it beats i phone hands down,though running winmo 6.5 you wont feel it,htc has skinned it nicely,it is a beast,literally.
 
@m.khurana

Thank you, personally dont like those compass box kind of nokias

Will prefer 5320 or iPhone.
 
for ur info you will be lucky if you see 3g implemented this year.the auction has been postponed.nokia 5230 3.2 in screen and i phone 3.5 not too much difference.and now kinetic scrolling on nokias make surfing much easier.you must atleast try opera mini 5 on a nokia once before making a decision.
 
bsnl 3g is not reliable in my place(punjab).the point i want to make is basically that right now symbian s60v5 are the most useful ,mature software wise,good app support and also happen to be the cheapest full fledged smartphone as an added bonus.opera mini5 is in beta but i use it.its optimised for touchphones with full qwerty support.but also know that this year is going to see great phones launched.symbian^3,windows phone 7 series,android 2.1,and iphone 4g.out of these android and symbian devices will be cheaper as they are open source.i feel that like the netbook craze all with intel atom,1gig ram,i60 hard disk, drove down prices to 13k a netbook,likewise optimal requirements for these new os such as 1 gz snapdragon or tegra,256 mb ram,wifi,gps,3 inch touchscreen,3 mp camera or similar configuration will ultimately drive down smartphone prices <10k.and that my friend will be exciting!!!!!!!!
 
Agree with you.

I just checked iPhone with safari.. Browsing exp is just awesome.

Yet to check Nokia with Opera mini.. Dont you think Nokia 5230/5800 screen is smaller then iPhone.

Just to add,

Which mobile (other then iPhone) support Opera Mini & has screen as big as iPhone
(Pref Nokia/Sony)
 
I own both the iPhone 3g and the Nokia 5800.

IMO as far as the internet surfing is concerned nothing in mobile phones comes close to the iPhone.
