Settlement requested Mon 25th Aug 8:44am PDT by newswrangler: Winning prediction = "Above Rs 31000"

Price appears to be Rs 31,000 at both vendors. Competitive difference appears to be amount of initial down payment required to purchase on "installment plan".

BTW: price is 4x the price charged in the US :-|

"Though the launch attracted hundreds of curious onlookers late at night, very few of them were convinced enough to shell out an exorbitant Rs 31,000 for the 8 GB version and Rs 36,100 for the 16 GB one."
