I would like to thank you guys for this initiative. It greatly eases
our shipping+customs+tax import issues. Yes, I have made my order :)

I just have one request. If you guys can strip the current model to
just have 1. a GSM (say INR 5k, or USD 125) , or 2. a model with
GSM+GPS (with a reduced price, of course), it will be extremely useful
for the "mass" market in India. I would assume the GSM takes
one-fourth of the total price of the product. Not sure what is the
proportion of the GPS component.

INR 20k (with four RF components) is quite affordable to most people
working in the Industry here in India, but, a basic, customizable
phone would be really something that will be usable, and affordable
for the "masses".

Just my thoughts,

SK
