Apple iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C may not have the best hardware, but doesn't mean consumers won't line up a week earlier to get a taste of much talked about "iPhone experience."

Surely, Indian market is not as big as China; neither CEO Tim Cook ever thought to visit country once. Although for Apple, India is the biggest dump ground for selling discontinued devices (iPhone 4), however, now the makers behind iPad have started accepting the fact that Indian market could be as big as China in the coming years.
