Its been now confirmed that India would have to wait for the official iPhone launch here. Bharti Telecom is rumored to start selling the iPhones by Sepetember this year. The iPhone will be version 2.0 with 3G support. The countries where it would be available from 11th July are:
Australia, Austria, Belgium (French/Dutch), Canada (English/French), Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland (French/German), UK and USA.
The pricing in India might be a little higher than the Rupee equivalent of the Dollar prices. iPhones in the US would be sold under contract of at least 2 Years but that format wouldn't be applied to the Indian business model, hence, the difference in price.
However, if local vendors are to be beleived, the next generation unlocked iPhones would be available in Grey Markets by the end of July and would be priced at around 20k for an 8GB model.
