double posting to update australian iPhone 4 users about the case order.

Nice... How long did you waited for the casing to arrive? I have already ordered mine (smoke nude) I have to freaking wait for 1 month for it to come..... Stupid apple

It will be nice if you can put a picture of your iPhone in that case... 

As for me, still considering which case to order...

@nokia2003,
Y r U still buying iPhone 4's?  Also, I meant to ask quite a while ago - u know that picture U posted; on the top right portion there's this purple "flag" - apa makna-nya it?!

It's been there since OS4 IINM *hehe*

anyone knows in melb city any place got stock?boo hoo!

Try the Apple Store on Hay St. That's your best bet for unlocked units, in fact thats the only source for unlocked units in Perth.

You may also wanna try Apple Resellers like Nextbyte around Perth CBD.

Safe trip, and carry island reserve fuel yah!

P/S: Someone just text me from Paris stating disappointing results wi Paris iPhone hunt. He was texting from the L'Opera Apple Store in Rue Halevy. Hope you have better luck in PER.

Will be in Perth tomorrow,any idea where and if stock is available for the Ip4?
Thanks!

is it cause australia set expensive?

or everybody get their iphone already?

how come so less ppl?

I bought the iphone online, how will Apple deliver it to me? Anyone been through this?

Guys, need some help here..

Buy in australia is cheaper than buy in malaysia?

Ok.. Now i've tried using "3" sim card and I can sync the ip but when i change back to digi it reads "The SIM Card Inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported"

hi, i will be going to Melbourne soon and will be there for the next few years, would like to ask your opinion what will be the best telco for using iphone? i mean by data coverage and customer service

i already have an iphone but thinking of getting an iphone 4 for my wife in melbourne, please advise.. based on nokia2003 comment it seems that 3 is out, i have been in uk and been using O2 payngo (prepaid) on my iphone and was very satisfied with it, where i paid 10pound and get unlimited internet and 300 msg.

and is it easy to get an iphone 4 in melbourne? or there is still a waiting period

please advise

thank you in advance

New students can't get Optus cause Optus will reject you, you'll have to go for other brands although Optus offers the best deals.

You can go on a contract with Optus as in international student, but in most cases the salesperson will have to call India to get an override approval for the credit check.

They are, however, extremely strict on the minimum criteria for international students. The expiry date of your student visa must be after the expiry date of your contract. Sometimes they require an additional 2 months, so if your contract duration is 24 months, as a rule of thumb they require your visa to be valid for 26 months. If you are currently doing pre-U and plan on going to Uni after but only have a visa valid for a year, you can forget about it. They will also require proof of income/allowance from parents, bank statements, etc. In some cases they may also limit you to plans that are below a certain value, say $49, which makes it rather difficult to obtain high value phones on instalment. There is a ton of ID that you need to bring, best to check with the store beforehand.

Any iPhone issued by a carrier will be sim locked, including contract units purchased from Apple. The only unlocked iPhones are those purchased outright (ie. prepaid units) from Apple.

Carriers can unlock the phone for you, I don't know what the charges are but last I heard Telstra unlock fees were pretty expensive. Sometimes it takes several weeks, usually it's done in a few days. The carrier needs to put a request through to Apple to update the registry so that your phone is unlocked. After that, you need to restore your phone so iTunes can unlock it.

FOC? Thought you needa pay haha. Great then. Thanks a lot.
