Apple CEO Steve Jobs is back on the job after a six-month medical leave, the company said Monday. “Steve Jobs is back to work. He is at Apple a few days a week and working from home the other days,” Apple spokesman Steve Dowling said. “We’re glad to have him back.” Dowling would not comment further on specifics. Jobs’s return may do little to quell the tech community’s obsession with his health and future role at the hip tech company. Bloggers and tech-news writers are asking many questions aboutJobs’ return, including: Would Apple be fine without its famous chief executive? What does Jobs’ health mean for Apple stock? And why has Jobs’ health been such a drooled-over story? Jobs, a 54-year-old pancreatic cancer survivor, had a liver transplant about two months ago. Apple, maker of the iPhone, iPods and Mac computers, had remained mum onJobs’ status except to repeat, over and over, that Jobs would return to work by the end of June.

25 Comments | 28,267 views Over 1 million units already sold this baby is definitely to get. Yeah.. lets talk about iPhone 3GS and then iPhone 3GS price in India. What I liked about this year’s WWDC was that Apple did not brag about their iPhone 3GS too much. What I mean by that is the release of iPhone 3GS, World Wide Web is flooded with the Benchmark of iPhone 3GS. It is actually x4 times faster than iPhone 3G which is over delivery of what iPhone 3GS announced at WWDC i.e. x2 times faster.
OK, lets get to business now. I mean the price of iPhone 3GS in India and price of iPhone 3G in India after the $99 announcement. Last year if you remember when Steve Jobs announced the iPhone 3G price as $199, Indian media and people went crazy and starting speculating the dawn of competitive phone manufacturers. People thought iPhone 3G in India will be available at around 8,000 Rs. But that did not happen because Indian market can not have a subsidized iPhone 3G whereas in US AT&T has subsidized the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS and its available with 2 year contract. So iPhone 3G in India was launched with the a very high price tag :
iPhone 3G 8 GB (Black) for Rs 31,000
iPhone 3G 16 GB (White & Black) for Rs 36,100
There is not much calculation to be done for the iPhone 3GS version as the price remains the same. But we might see some price cut this time by both operators. Don’t expect too much.
Now the most important part is the sale of iPhone 3G 8GB which is now sold @ $99 in US. If we do the calculation $199 in US and in India 31,000. $99 in US and iPhone 3GS price in India should be around 26,000 by deducting the $100 from the price tag.
So the final iPhone 3GS price in India should be something like this as per my prediction, considering the fact that this time both operators would like to subsidize a little bit of amount with 3G data plans to attract more customers as they could not capitalize on this beauty last time.
iPhone 3G 8 GB (Black) for Rs 26,000
iPhone 3GS 16 GB (Black) for Rs 31,000
iPhone 3GS 32 GB (White & Black) for Rs 35,000
If the prices I predicted are correct then my plan of getting one would be trashed. Anyways what do you think ?
What will be the price of iPhone 3GS in India when launched in August this year?
Will there be 3G launched as well with the new version of iPhone 3GS ?
Have your say !
