Some reports also highlight Cook is set to meet telcos in the bid to look for partnerships for distribution and sales of its devices. Besides, he will also be meeting politicians and some leading businessmen In the earnings call, Tim Cook had explained how LTE rollout (in India) has been one of the factors that has been holding Apple back, as the potential and the power of its mighty devices cannot be unleashed on 2G. But with good networks coming in, things could change, he had said back then. He had also spoken about problems related to building good retail channels as phones are not tied to carriers here, like in developed nations. Now, citing sources related to the matter, the ET report further adds that Airtel is in talks with Apple and looking to team up for 'distribution/selling through retail stores, offers on devices and even training of personnel'.
