Hi,
Does anyone have an idea.. when HD7 is available in India... i am sick of my current phone... and i don't wanna go for iphone...

The "grey" market says mid-November. Its usually available here once it releases either in the UK or Hong Kong.

Thailand is even worse no mention of windows phone 7.
The dealers I asked said next year some time WTF.
The only option will be to get a gray import and I am not keen on doing that.

well it would be july 2011 atleast , i bought HD7 from london and unlocked it, it works like charm. best bet is to tell somone from UK to buy one for you from O2.
HD7 is a rocket phone.

i know a friend thats selling 2 unlocked HTC HD7s. Would work in India.
PM me if interested

Can you please provide me one unlocked HD7
Hello can anybody send me unlocked HD7..
I am from india....please pm me...if somebody has any info.
Thanks

New Htc Kaiser

What will be the price of new kaiser 4550 in india
India it will not b released as there is no word on 3g networks..in case if it is released, then it will be quite highly priced say around 35k..but as far asI know, no plans for this phone for next 6 months in India, you will need to get them from USA, singapore or HK probably..

Indiaplaza.in has it listed here:
http://www.indiaplaza.in/mobiles/ph...nufacturer-warranty-laptop-usb-light-free.htm
for Rs36,499 with Airtel lock (whatever that means). The specification looks like a copy paste from the htc website and has 3G specs.Not sure whether both will be available for different price ranges- they are claiming delivery in 15 days.Anyone here from Mumbai or Delhi- Can you check Heera Panna/Palika Bazar ? In Bangalore -dealers are telling 15 days -1 month.Airtel call center does not have a clue about what HTC diamond is.....

38k. wtf! i dont think so!!!!! i think someone is playing the price there. dont buy until u have some other confirmation. btw ur right abt the last part. keke. i went to global access arnd commercial street and also national market near majestic, and guess what.....these guys dont even know what htc touch diamond is....i was like.....kekekeke...cos global access is listed as an official retailer for htc in india
any luck
Anyone ?? Any luck with locating the Touch Diamond in India?
The elusive diamond
On the HTC India site, it says that "The HTC Touch™ (sic) will be available through Airtel in top 25 cities across the country at a maximum retail price of Rs. 27,500.00 (inclusive of all taxes) and all authorized HTC resellers.
http://www.htc.com/in/press.aspx?id=49180&lang=1033
I tried calling some of these authorized retailers in Mumbai and none of them had a clue when it was going to be released nor could they even confirm the 27,500 price. Didn't bother calling up Airtel customer care as I'm sure they would be even more clueless.
A salesman at Alfa, probably Mumbai's most popular mobile phone retailer, expected the handset to retail at 40k. Indiaplaza.in is also listing it at a list price of Rs. 40995. Although I wonder if they really have it in stock.
So has anyone in India got hold of the diamond and/or is able to confirm the 27,50 price?? Please let us know!

Ok in that case then any european country will have them ie UK i know definitely has Diamonds now with the newest rom unless you want to try ebay but im sure most of the Diamonds on there are the grey imports ie older roms with plenty of problems.

thank you, Mr. Spawn
Its probably cheaper for you to buy one from HK. You can upgrade the rom anyway.
Look on ebay, or just google!

frm india AND NEED THE DIAMOND2 BADLY PLS HELP

hi frm india and i wanna get the diamond2 but its not gonna be released here for a long time so planning to get it from some other country
SO PLS TELL ME WHICH COUNTRY WOULD BE THE BEST OPTION
Europe!
I think there won't be any serious differences between the European countries...
But think of Germany, because we are the "Export-Champions".
The Touch Diamond 2 will hit the German market (ca.) at the 17th April and will cost about 450€.
take a look:

It works out cheaper to buy from the UK, if you can find someone that does international shipping. The Euro is too strong compared to the pound at the moment to make ordering from the rest of Europe worthwhile.
i too am from mumbai india abnd needed the diamond could some1 let me know when is it expected in india and if i buy it from europe will i still be able to use all features prefer buying it from here though
dude, just get it from Clove UK. they have very good ratings..

yes but will all features of a european diamond work and also during a rom update will u update it as india update or uk update since the radio and connectivity will be different
not 100% sure, but the specs of the euro diamond should essentially be the same as the ones you will get in india..check out the specs, only difference between euro and us version are the wcdma bands and as far as i know india does not have proper 3g connections yet, so why bother?
as far as updates are concerned, u will get the standard update..there is no uk/india update unless your phone is tied to a network. u can go ahead and buy the d2.
I am from India too.. i am planning to buy D2 from Clove.
But what about the excise/customs charges? How much do we have to pay to import the D2?
I think now it's 35% for personal electronic goods (Previously blanket 200%). But never know these corrupt ppl anyways. Not much personal experience.
Also Express shipping DHL are always checked unlike ordinary post which may skip thru. Also for gift items they might consider waiver (upto 10$/INR 500 worth) but not for such costly items. Never misstate the contents as it may get confiscated in addition to getting U into serious legal trouble.

[Q] HTC OTA update

I intend to buy a HTC Incredible S in Swiss as it is on sale ATM for a really nice price. I wonder if I bring it back to Vietnam in SEA, can I still use the OTA update for Europe if I want to?

for branded ... You will not able to use different carrier, s-offed will not get OTA. why bother with OTA, once OTA come up. You can download the ROM and doing RUU by your self. Btw which part of vietnam is you live in (?) last week I visited Ha Noi, Hai Pong and HCM City (Saigon). Most vietnam ladies are great ... slim and nice looking
Thanks for the answer, I'm only curious as I have used two Samsung devices and they can be upgraded wherever depending on its CSC (country sale code). I wonder if HTC put on an IP check to see if I'm in the correct country in case I want to use OTA, might be never though. Still any info on that?
The phone I got is unlocked non-branded one, it's branded new and for only 250USD.
About Vietnam, well I live in Saigon and Hai Phong is my home town. About ladies I know what you meant hehe, only if they're a little more top heavy...
