FYI,
"Ida Systems Pvt Ltd will be reselling the Neo Freerunner in India.
After careful consideration the the Retail Price in India has been
fixed at Rs 20000/-. This includes all taxes, shipping to your
address, 30 days return and one year warranty. We are hoping to be
able to ship the Freerunners to customers by end May. For more
information please email sales at idasystems.net.
There are still a few slots left in our inaugural offer for the first
40 orders of Freerunner at Rs 15399/-. Please mail me at rakshat at
idasystems.net if you would like to pre-book and avail the offer." [1]
Considering the import duties levied for electronics and hardware in
India, and to provide four RF components for this price is quite good
IMO. INR 15k is quite affordable to the folks working in the Industry
in India.
No, I don't work for Ida Systems.
