Barat,

I also live in India in New Delhi and I saw the same product announcement. From what I have read the card has still not been released to stores. I have not read anything on whether Apple will be working on a software driver for the card. Regardless do you think this would be available for purchas in India. If yes, where?

Thanks,
Dean

Hi Dean,
Can't say anything right now....
Checked the sites of Mobile Operators in India, but no info.
Really waiting in anticipation for these cards to be launched in India.
Will keep you posted on any developements... 🙂
Regards,
Bharat
