    I heard that iPhone 3G is available in India too..

    But none of the sources could lead me to the exact place where i can buy one!
    If anyone is from Delhi, can you please confirm this?

    I need an iPhone but seem to be unlucky in finding one.

    They're the only operators which will have iPhone available in their network [afaik]. So, you'll have to wait.

    Well iPhone is comming soon in India, I used iPhone because my Room-mate in Pune had that phone which is came from USA and he is using Airtel Sim Card with it. Few Mobile shop will setup the phone. Check mobile store to get more idea. He did in Mumbai.

    If I were you, I'd purchase the iPhone 3G directly from Apple's website. Just have them ship it to you, that's all.

    Why don't you try in ebay. Buy it from US sellers to be sure it's genuine. Avoid buying from sellers in Asia especially from China and Hong Kong.

    If you were I, you would have checked whether apple really ships products to India or not :)
    Actually they don't.. and so Apple stores are being launched in India very soon(a few are opened already, but no info there!)
