iPhone in Sri Lanka
Sri Lankans are very unlucky fellows when it comes to iPhone. Apple has announced about a new version of their iPhone OS which will enable you to send MMS and it’ll also allow you to perform copy and paste functionality.
Meanwhile Apple has released a new model of iPhone (known as iPhone 3GS). This model got much more features such as built-in video camera etc.
You can buy iPhone with an operator contract for about $99 and iPhone 3Gs for $199. Unfortunately iPhone is not available in Sri Lanka and none of the operators are supporting it.
If you see someone with a iPhone, he is either using a iPhone like fake phone or illegally bought iPhone.
Sometime back Dialog came up with the iPhone deal and everyone was talking about it. Later they dropped the plan and the page also went missing from their site. If we can get one of our local operators to support iPhone we can get iPhone with a connection for about 11, 000 LKR, which is far way cheaper than all Nokia smart phones.
Hope to see iPhone in Sri Lankan market soon.
Dialog iPhone deal gone to trash bin?
Recently people started to send me email saying that Dialog’s iPhone page is missing. I went ahead and checked it. Yep, they have removed it.
I wonder why? Possible reasons are legal problems or may be they want to re-consider the price of the phone as its too expensive for most of the Sri Lankans.
Hope Dialog will come with a better idea for the iPhone deal. I can’t wait to get my hands on iPhone, even though I can’t afford it
Dialog unveils the revolutionary iPhone 3G to Sri Lanka
I just can’t believe this, Dialog has introduced Iphone 3G to Sri Lankan market. I think Dialog has started its offensive against Airtel.
Unit price is 89,000 LKR with one year warranty. If you can’t pay the money at a time, you can go for easy payment scheme. It’ll be around 7,416 LKR per month.
Dialog also offers iPhone Finger Tips Guide as PDF which you can download from dialog.lk.
Pomegranate – an iPhone Killer
Pomegranate is a powerful hand held phone that going to kick on the ass of iPhone. I just got the link to Pomegranate on Twitter in John Reese’s Twit. Design is stunning and eye catchy. I’m sure gadget lovers gonna be crazy about this stuff.
These are some interesting stuffs I need to point out
Global Voice Translator
It translates 50 Languages. Say you wanna speak with your French friend, all you need to do is speak on this phone on English, and it’ll automatically translate and speak out in French for your friend from the speaker in the rear. You French friend can do the same thing.
Most of us are still wondered about web based translation tool. Obviously it’s an awesome feature. Personal translator got a real big problem. In near future political leaders can bring this phone instead of a beautiful translator lady.
Shave while you travel
There is a razer attached to the phone. You don’t have to spend time on wash-room to shave your beard. You can do it while you’re on the run. Ladies can use it to shave the hairs on the hands and legs.
Shave and talk while you on the street. Cool huh?
Watch Movies with Pomegranate
You can use your Pomegranate phone as a projector and watch movies and TV shows in you home. It’ll bring Home theater experience to you and your family.
Also you can use this projector feature for your business purpose such as showing presentation etc.
Make Coffee with your Pomegranate
OMG you can now even make coffee with your phone. All you need to do is insert a flavor to your phone and use the phone and it’ll suck the water inside and make you a coffee.
Harmonica
You can play music with your phone. When you’re tired and stressed you can play music, as you play mouth organ.
Doesn’t it ring bell? Yes exactly they are fooling us by showing this wonderful site. Lol
It took some time for me to find this out. Its your time to fool your friend.
So what is this? Well, it’s not a mobile device. It’s an advertisement for Nova Scotia…
The Pomegranate phone is part of the Nova Scotian government’s “Come to Life” viral marketing campaign. Nova Scotia has been criticized for spending $300,000 on the ad campaign, though the website received around 150,000 hits after a month, and they are considering it to be very successful.
