The iPhone 4 will have a 3.5 inch display with 640 X 960 pixel resolution, two cameras and a 5-megapixel camera with built-in LED flash.

With the launch of 3G services, telecom companies are betting big on smartphones. airtel and Aircel are offering their 3G (high speed internet access) services across various cities in the country.

iPhone, the touch screen handset that acquired a cult status in the US and other western countries, was launched for the first time in India in 2008. Following the launch, the new upgrades have also been introduced in the Indian market.
