hi guys after playing a cat and mouse game with Maxis CS i managed to get myself in the Maxis iPhone Loyalty Program, its more of an interest to get into the prebook list and the promoters will call you up and let you know the date when and where to collect once maxis get their stocks,someone in the Digi thread posted an article where Maxis CEO said the iPhone might be here in august, note that i used "MIGHT" so dont take my words for granted. If you are a maxis postpaid user call 123 now and bug them.

QUOTE(samurai1337 @ Jul 5 2010, 06:00 PM) Spoke to a Maxis stuff in The Gardens MV, and I'm told that iPhone4 will be in either September or October, and there will be no pre-order for iPhone 4 Can anyone tell me if I am fooled? if you spoke to those promoters, then i would say they are clueless, i rather believe Maxis CEO than those pesky promoters standing at the entrance of the store.

QUOTE(phat @ Jul 12 2010, 08:31 PM) but for how long?but then,i juz saw a price slash of rm400 from maxis website?dat made me tempted to buy..huhu plus minus 2 months, ala just wait lah and put yourself in the iPhone loyalty program, call 123 and ask them to check if you are eligible for it and state the color and capacity of the iPhone 4 you are interested in, as soon as they have it, you'll be first in line for the phone, plus why pay more for an outdated product anyway?

QUOTE(phat @ Jul 12 2010, 08:43 PM) Ermm...how about the price then?i'm worried about the price since i can get 3gs now for only rm890..if i can still have dat price,i wouldnt mind the wait..but the 3gs intro price is around rm1290 for a 24month contract of ivalue2..rite? price should follow the maxis plans before the discount, well pay a bit more for a new phone is better for an outdated model right? Than latter when iOS 5 comes out you'd be complaining why the phone lag so much man.

QUOTE(akira de aimbuster @ Jul 20 2010, 12:10 AM) After a few reading i am still not very clear with the plan  1) Lets say if i wanted to apply for iValue 1, means every month i need to pay rm100, and that's including my phone-call charge? 2) After i apply for iValue 1, I still need to pay rm2299 in order to get the phone? getting more confuse  The RM 100 is divided 50:50 with calls and data, this is your monthly commitment, RM2299 is a discounted price point for the iphone, so what is so hard to understand here? did you think they'd give the iPhone away free?

QUOTE(akira de aimbuster @ Jul 20 2010, 03:11 PM) I see, so for people who phoned about rm100 every month, now they will need to pay for around rm150. Oh so the rm2299 is already the discount price. Lol not totally free though, I did thought that they would sell it at a much lower price.
Thanks anyway  RM700 discount of the phone is a significant discount dont you think?

QUOTE(Mike3300 @ Jul 20 2010, 07:02 PM) Hopefully they offer the same price for outright purchase on iPhone 4. 3GS 8GB can remain RM1990. if look back at the previous price, normally its a difference between RM20=RM50

QUOTE(Blackbird @ Jul 20 2010, 08:58 PM) Just registered too.. this will be my first iphone if the price is not too high. Budget RM2500. Hope it's possible for me to own 1. its not impossible, get the plan that offers you the most discount and best commitment monthly and you can get under 2500.

QUOTE(Blackbird @ Jul 20 2010, 09:07 PM) Currently i'm with Rm80 call plan and RM58(500mb) data plan. So, what's ur advice?  ivalue 150? im planning for the ivalue 100, my data is solely for twitter, email, fb only nothing serious so 500MB is enough, heres hoping for Maxis to increase the data cap to 1Gb for ivalue 100.

QUOTE(sembilan @ Jul 21 2010, 09:13 AM) Weird thing i noticed about the maxis registration site is that it wont let me register my interest for 16GB (i tried numerous times and failed), but when i chose 32GB, one time and i'm in. i have registered just fine also, maybe your flash not the latest version?

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Jul 21 2010, 01:42 PM) @teikwing, Ah.. it sure looks like this is gonna be a super hangat thread when Maxis launches the iPhone 4 - looks like I'm gonna be getting a post count boost soon  @engseng, No - there's no word and Maxis is keeping their mouths very mum about it. I do know however, Maxis will prob be releasing the phones in September, possibly almost the same period as DiGi  @tinkerbel steve did say that overseas customers might get the free bumpers, but this i dont think will happen to the Malaysian market as the problem would have already been rectified by then.

QUOTE(Bellatrix LeStrange @ Jul 23 2010, 08:48 AM) im not that loaded to pay on one shot like u, mista. dont be an ignorant, you barely know me yet you think you do, Maxis plan is such that you pay a monthly commitment and you pay for the phone price upfront/one shot? do you get the formula or not, do read more and come back when you do understand, theres even information posted in the beginning of this thread have a look before posting such a simplistic question?
