Why not Maxis sell the phone without any plan... Or just a few plan who really need one... not all people force to buy the iPhone with plan + contract and finally change their mind for prepaid user...

Do you think that iPhone price supposedly around iPod touch price..??? I don't know... from the beginning of iPhone have been launched in the US, I really hope that if it come to Malaysia the price is just like iPod touch, since the phone only has camera function to add up compare to iPod touch...

Prices are killing me though...

Mr Nokia, I know all the plans from Maxis and I know all about how we can buy iPhone without have any plan now.. but what I furious about is how Maxis suck up people's money when iPhone first been introduced... and how the feeling that, "I want that iPhone but the price bother me" and "Mom can you buy me an iPhone?" and mom said, "Are sure you want a mobile phone which cost me nearly RM3000?" which I consider I can't even have it.

And I know it's all about quality that really make sense and it's all about satisfaction of having it... I'm so envy with US people though when grade 5 students are using iPhone...

Thinking again, the price of iPhone will never going down, unless the new model comes out, not like normal phone...

Frustrating...

Well you cant always have the things you want in life. If you cant afford it then move on or save your own money. Hey, im only 19 and you know what? Iphone motivated me to get my own part-time job lol Was juggling between pre-uni studies and job. Can you believe that? in 3 months time i saved up the amount of money needed to purchase an iphone 3g 16gb. I don't go begging my mum for money to buy the iphone. It motivated me to be responsible and not to depend on my parents for money. You cant blame maxis for the price.

Dude ive stressed that US currency and Msian currency is different. What do you expect bro? If you feel jealous than its not something that can be helped. Imagine the price for shipping that maxis have to pay and the contract blablabla.

If maxis sells iphone at a cheap price, how are they gonna survive? Im not being bias but as a normal human you can judge what items in life are cheap or expensive. You can't go saying that iphone is at a unfair price just because you cant afford it. Yes no doubt many people mourn over the price... but hey the mourning isnt gonna change anything much because iphone is an exclusive item. I hope you understand that to get something that is nice and good, you cant have it at a cheap price.

Like they all say "Cheap thing no good, good thing no cheap". Just gotta say bro " if there's a will there's a way"
