It's hilarious how every time an article on India and iPhone is posted, some arm chair expert chimes in with India's income, corruption, comparing it with communist China et al...

As if, generally speaking, folks in the US just stroll in to an Apple store and drop $1000+ cash on a mobile device lol. If it wasn't for carrier subsidies, tradein deals, financing options.. I'd be willing to bet a lot of those people wouldn't have the latest and greatest idevice!

As for India's corruption, lack of education, poverty... people forget ( more likely have no clue ) that India was finally independent after 1947 ( from Moghuls to British rule ) that left the country not only divided, ( India-Pak ) with major military conflicts, but was also robbed and plundered, thus setting the nation back economically by far!

That said, She's reborn and well on her way back..
