if they really facing short on stock, then didnt they stop the booking... it did mention while stock last

if they really cant get enough of stock, and keep letting ppl book their iPhone, they seriously going to have a lot of trouble now...

i not an insider so i not sure how the much stock there is... but i trying to point out that IF Maxis really do so, they will get things more messy, and have more complaints on them, ppl will react like "No Next Time", they loose some trust from their customer...

now i have another question regarding activation... so if they activate ur iphone on the spot... and then when u go home, do u need to restore it again? especially for case of Mac user, as we know for Mac user the iPhone or iPod will use HFS+ file system, restore is definitely needed for it to sync with Mac.

as i only use iPod before, not iPhone, so i not sure bout the scenario here... anyone care to clarify?

have u use iphone before? even u activate it using windows, it's still can sync in MAC..... and vice versa.

MAC is using HFS+ file system... but iphone is not.

is it? i only played with iPhone, never actually get my hands on to do every test... i thought that iPhone file system was following the platform that restore it, like iPod, if Windows it will be formated with FAT, and on Mac it will be formated with HFS+...

hmm i guess if activated on Windows and able to sync with Mac and vice versa, then it will be due the iPhone OS itself able to support both platform syncing...

thanks for the info biggrin.gif

well my Hotlink converted to Youth Club plan... and keeping my existing number... even if new plans does come out i will stick to my Hotlink now... cheaper calls and sms... just that data are not cheap...

and as Maxis staff (the one 1 asked) also said...u still can change ur plan during the day u collect ur phone, so even Maxis does launch a new plan before 31st, they still can change the plan during the collection date... but if Maxis launch after 31st... i guessing there might be some uproar..

anyway my Best Skin Ever arrived... Woo-Hoo... all left is 5 more days for the phone... biggrin.gif

Agreed. No need worry if you already pre-book, you will get it just a matter of time. You should worry instead in getting a set where it's displaying some common symptoms such as hairline cracks, yellowish screen  tongue.gif

So if you are unlucky and get one of those, and stocks are low..don't think Maxis can give you a one to one swap immediately..so end up you need to wait again.

those with hairline crack normally appear on white right?

i tot the yellowish screen was due the the color temperature...

Err.. I thought all 3GS are new, what's the difference between the "new" - no yellow and "old" - with yellow tinge??
Different place of manufactured?
*
the "new" and "old" are compared by the manufacturing week i think... all Apple devices serial number can show in what week of the year is it made...

the website just posted (as said) can determine ur product details... i not sure since i didnt try it...

got my iPhone today... based on the serial number it was from factory 85, week 27, no yellowish (as compared to those posted in the previous post) when full brightness, while on 50% it looks warm, but it was around the same looks as my iMac, so i assume that it was the way Apple wanted it to be...

when i got to Maxis Centre KLCC their system was down... so they do it manually... and i can still get my iPhone 16GB...
