@shdwkillr,
6-8hrs of queuing? That sounds v ridiculous lah !

@mONSTers,
U mean these people just queue for the sake of queuing cause everyone else is doing so?

@jonest,
Er.. I can live with the Kiaboh

i am a user of 8GB 3G iphone with iOne plus plan since november 2008 and i wanted to upgrade to 3GS 32GB....any1 can tell me how much i need to pay to get the new phone without trade in

is it paying 600 for the new phone with 24 months contract again? the calculation damn confusing

@rockdaman
$600 plus the phone price under the chosen plan

ok...i can forget about it...lol

yea...16GB white iPhone is out of stock and I'm back with empty hand
decide to wait as they still will honour me the early upgrade fee + $100 discount + $30 acce voc.
not rushing into getting the GS

-------------------
saw 1 uncle collecting his iphone as well. the most headache part was, he keep asking the staff how to do this and that with the phone.
nowadays, ppl really buying something that they themselve dun ever know what they buying.

Hmm, seems like I can make the conclusion that Singtel really failed this time.. what is the purpose that they asked pre-orderer to make a reservation with SGD50 deposit and in the end not even securing a phone for them..
Well..

@mONSTers

Did they extend the date for u? Coz all those who preordered are allowed to collect their phones by end of July with the same benefit.

@mONSTers,
Er.. so U didn't get the unit U reserved for but SingTel will honour the discounts and freebies when new stocks come in? Hmm.... other units available or everything out of stock?

So, when's the expected date of replenishment?

Singtel extended to those that preordered at their website ($50 was charged to their accs for the preorder, I think) to collect their phones by the end of the month....

@jonest
yup. I just make sure they keep the launch discount/freebies to me by taking down the remark into their system.

@tink
yup. only 16GB white not avaiable. They asking me wether wanna change to 16GB black or 32GB white. they cant really sure when the replenish stock will arrive, but maybe around 2 weeks to month.

Singtel actually very flexible in some way, i means even after i get my phone after july, but they do able to waive the $50 preorder fee if it's due to the stock shortage. So im really no worry about it.

But, my hunger for GS getting lesser day by day, maybe i'll stick with my i3g and let my gf take up my reservation slot.
still considering.

@mONSTers,
Ah well.. like I said in the beginning, it's just all hype! If U don't need the i3GS then don't bother lah

yeah, its the hype

come to think of it, i might as well wait for next year new model?

Well, if ur existing i3G is working well, y not keep it.... u may never know, Jobs may surprise us with another "WOW" next year..... As for myself, I used to have a 2G oni, sold it off and waiting for the launch.....

@rx330,
Yeah that is possible too!

@jonest,
I'm quite sure there will be a new release next year

normally i dun sell my phones

tinkerbell, i agree with u as well
hopefully, not the same looking
but worst comes to worst, next year do another upgrade again

@rx330,
I don't even usually change phones until the phone dies on me or something but muAhahAH I made an exception with the i3G and sold it too; otherwise how to finance the i3GS wor?

@rx330, jonest, tink
yea...especially after playing with the demo unit yesterday, it's really just another i3g. faster? yes. and the integrated compass is quite useful, at least for me as im relying quite a lot of on the map (im person with no sense of direction haha)

but as my data plan contract will end august, and currently no data plan (50GB) as cheap as that so choosing the iflexi (500MB) will save me $10 each month. my monthly usage is around 200-300MB.

still got time to think while waiting for the stock to arrive.

@mONSTers,
Ah well... I don't use the compass much, in fact I'm under utilising my phone; if only I could export the Compass app to U

If U want reasons NOT to buy the i3Gs I can give u several. But if U want reasons to get it, I too can give U several. Just let me know which side of the fence U want me to sit on

@jonest,
Er.. U don't need convincing because U oredi sold ur 2G awaiting for the i3GS. My question was meant for mONSTers

the darkside perhaps???

it's meant for him too.....

@tink
haha, i knew the reason for not upgrading to GS.
so give me more reasons to upgrade to GS

p/s: i dun play games. i got 3 pages of game apps on my i3g but the chances to tap on them is merely <10% camera? don't need, i got my DSLR. Video? hmm, maybe 5% usage?
