No impact. Who buy iPhone @ this price (31000 & 36100)? If people have little bit intellingent power then they do not buy. Only buy crazy people. Are they selling mobile or gold in India?

They got huge number of iPhone booking through their website, thats why they decided this high price. People believed, when launching in India the price is same as US price or maximum 2000 Rs more than US price that why all people are booked through their website.

When launching in other countries, all retail shops are very rush. Queues were started from early mid night. But in India, I think .....

Wait & See...

They will decrease price, when they feel it\\`s a big mistake....

Guest , you are again, classifing the people, like our so called netas do. This is the route cause of our ills, & that is why we are not able to achieve what we should have achieved by now. Thinking like this, gives our illiterate netas ,further boost to destroy our country. And where are you getting all these misleading figures.You only require a change in mindset, clarity of thinking, & the world will look different to you. Recruiting by, merit should be the criteria, rather than distribution thro reservations.

dear mfactor , India will be a strong country only if the majority of bahujans(Dalits , back wards , poor upper catses and minorities ) becomes middle class in india. Right now 20% of elite people (mostly upper caste) is belongs to middle cast , bcs they control the economy , Job market - pvt & Govt- and all country resources .

If the majority of bahujans becomes middle class in india it will boost our economy and will ultimately benfit people participating in stock market like us. So first we need to fight against the social discrimination against all sections , then automatically the issues like terrorism and maoism etc will disappear.

See our Intelligence , 95% is upper caste there and not recruiting any people from muslims , then how can they know and prevent about extermism among muslims? . So first bring all sections into the mainframe of society ..then our country will be great and strong.

You can please call me PQ-pitquote or what so ever. But please do not add SIR. I am rather shy. Thanks and keep FIT AS FIDDLE. Cheers. Best fat burner in this world is GINGER and US is trying to patent it. Unfortunately we sideline Pepper Ginger from the VenPongal our parents serve. I hope Indian govenment looks into this in addition to the nuclear deal. First they tried turmeric/then they started working with Neem and now it is the turn of Ginger. ...

Anyone CAN assume anything, PQ sir; the fact remains that we are all frogs in a way; some in the well, some in the kettle and some merrilly hopping around on moist earth totally immune and unaffected by whatever happens around.

Well here is a holy one before u knock off.
A new priest at his first mass was so nervous he could hardly speak.

After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done.

The monsignor replied, "When I am worried about getting nervous on the pulpit, I put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. If I start to get nervous, I take a sip."

So next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice.

At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink.

He proceeded to talk up a storm.

Upon his return to his office after the mass, he found the following note on the door:

1) Sip the vodka, don't gulp.

2) There are 10 commandments, not 12.

3) There are 12 disciples, not 10.

4) Jesus was consecrated, not constipated.

5) Jacob wagered his donkey, he did not bet his ass.

6) We do not refer to Jesus Christ as the late J.C.

7) The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not referred to as Daddy, Junior and the spook.

8) David slew Goliath; he did not kick the shit out of him.

9) When David was hit by a rock and was knocked off his donkey, don't say he was stoned off his ass.

10)We do not refer to the cross as the "Big T."

11)When Jesus broke the bread at the last supper he said, "Take this and eat it for it is my body." He did not say "Eat me".

12)The Virgin Mary is not called "Mary with the Cherry".

13)The recommended grace before a meal is not: Rub-A-Dub-Dub thanks for the grub, Yeah God.

14)Next Sunday there will be a taffy pulling contest at St. Peter's not a peter pulling contest at St. Taffy's.
Regards,
Ravi...
