Hi, I booked my iPhone on the 22nd of September and I collect it today (8 days). I booked mine from Mac Studio at the PJ Digital Mall.

I was worried I had to wait 30 days but I got a pleasant surprise when I got a call today. Overall good service from the guys at the shop.

Wow, got back from work and I can see everybody is pretty upset about the waiting time (I fully understand)... Anyway I'm not a Datuk/Datin/Minister/Politician/PM, I'm surprise myself when I got the call. I didn't even call maxis to check. Although I plan to do so after day 10.

Here is my story:
In fact when I first asked around, the first shop I went was the maxis MEP at Sunway. I was told outright by the SA 30-45 days, and was given the arrogant look (like he saying go away...)

At that time I was completely and utterly disgusted at the apple buying experience and almost decided on buying my 2nd choice (SonyEricsson Xperia X1). My existing phone has gone wonky on me and I urgently needed a replacement.

Anyway 2 days later and after much research the iPhone was too compelling to ignore. I tried calling some shops and finally found the Mac Studio had a good a pleasant SA on the other line (I was told 30 days) and I said what the heck. I went over ordered it and prepared to wait. Mind you 8 days was agonizing enough, that's why I really feel for you guys.

Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones. Anyway my theory is that because Mac Studio handles much less volume than say the MEP's then maybe Maxis can better allocate them to such shops. Anyway I really do hope that those who are waiting for such a long time get your phones.
