No Google Nexus Phone, No 3G, No WiMAX…India Shinning

Written By: Vardaan
Google has just unveiled a Android based Super phone called – Nexus One phone and India being one among unsupported countries. however people residing in India may psychologically satisfy themselves watching the Inetractive demo , 3D Tour or videos of Nexus One phone until it arrives in India as there is not any mention via Google of how, why and when it will arrive in India. The Google super phone will be available only in US, UK, Singapore and Hong Kong.
Noticeably unlike to Apple iPhone Google Nexus is “Unlocked” GSM phone sold and shipped by Google only.
Moreover, unavailability of 3G Mobile technology in India could be strong reason for Nexus phone unavailability, as at present its with BSNL only. Ironically, countries like UK had already made trials of next generation 4G mobile broadband technology.
Question – Why Google didn’t approach BSNL? as its also 3G and GSM phone operator in India.
However, India has its own Jugaad of getting Google Nexus by – shipping it to India (US$529 + $60 shipping + import duty = 32k INR approx.) or can also get it from ebay once people people start to resale it.

FYI ….India do not have any B2C WiMAX network and few companies are doing on experimental basis. 3G spectrum is set to be auctioned this year feb. and further take 6 more months to take effective in market …so 3G will be properly available to Indian consumers by end of 2010…..search – '3G auction in India' in Google news -> sort by date …will get know the exact scenario..
3G is with BSNL only at present and what about rest -> Airtel (110 million+ subscribers), Vodafone (85+ million susbcribers), idea (60+ million subscribers) and many more ….apprx. 90% mobile users do not access these services..how would u clarify this.

The Nexus is a awsoume phone in regards to features.in my opinion it wont be succesfull in the long run though.Why would people buy this when the can buy an iPhone 3g for 100 bucks?Its all about brand recognition . dominating all other phone makers at
