1999 is the price for registering a new line with them.
without registering its 2.1k

AP set.. sealed from Hong Kong ( AP supplier: PDA Gadgets.)
Just call them to order and usually takes 1 day or less to get the stock.

They don't have ready stock with them.

ha...i thought Rm1999 was the price...


i wonder if someone clicked buy @ lelong how ah??? they cant be shipping the new registration line right?


Hong kong set somore doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif everything is chinese language on default??


btw.. AP warranty what company?? PDA gadgets is wat?



i wonder when the original set will come?? the Malaysia set i mean.. this is the 1st time buying a phone breaking my usual phone price record [more than RM1k O.O] ... and i dont want to get a RM2k phone that is not even orignal ....

4)Everybody is waiting for Malaysia but i dunno when will that be too many dateline past.... And its gonna be more expensive than the current price.
5)AP its a original phone .... However the AP company import it from overseas and sell it locally.

already reach singapore adi??



I seriously dont know how Malaysia pricing works man...



Why is everything priced beyond the average demographic pricing?? or maybe i jump into conclusion when i saw a dealer here saying its gonna sell @ RM2.6k when the final pricing is not yet announced



surely it wont be priced more than RM2.1k gua?? since IPHONE 3gs priced in HK (HKD6,288) is also nearly similar to what it is priced in Malaysia ... the price of milestone would be expected to follow HK pricing gua?


its definately not possible for them to just simply pushed the Price for milestone to RM2.6k since the its going to be the range of Iphone 3gs liao..


How would they compete that way?? people would just go for the Iphone 3gs if the milestone being OVERPRICED to the range of iphone 3gs..

yea me too man!!! i want the milestone so badly ... its the only reason i want to change a new phone...



I seriously hope the milestone comes at the end of febuary and priced around RM2k .... adi so long liao price adi drop lo from international markets...


if they still insist on pricing it beyond RM2.1k ... i think i have to give up changing a new phone liao.... its not that i cant afford it... its just that i seriously dont believe in buying the phone at such an Overpriced rate...

Cannot do anything bro, got forumer sell 2.1K but u assume the price still high... if like that u by mine lar.. case close at RM 2K want  laugh.gif usng only few days only

priced RM2.1k for orignal set then i dont mind


its just ridiculous buying something thats overpriced... US is selling it @ RM1.9k ... HK is selling it @ RM2k ..


i assume malaysia phone standerd price would follow HK since even the IPhone 3Gs price follow the HK pricing...



now all i have to do is wait till the official released.... i dont think they would be that stupid to sell it at an unreasonable price



Btw... why u want to sell yours?? regret on buying it liao ah?? LOLZ

Someone already said official will be 2599. Really can't be helped. Tax are insane here. That's why APs are cheaper.

yes... you are right...


@yrh0413

I think you saw some forum that says the motorola sg site have the milestone and even put up a link to direct you there. DONT BE FOOLED, its a hoax ..... that idiot just changed the HK-EN to SG-EN ... thus showing the location Singapore and the milestone...

Ive tried it too and it also works for Malaysia.....



On the part wheater it had released in SG .. im not sure.. but i heard no such announcement on any website saying it had officialy launched in SG...


@Cheezeball
Where are you from? If your from JB then its ok to get SG set.... if not .. its the same as getting the AP HK set.. cause i dont think if you are from KL traveling to SG just to fix your phone is any good..

hi bro i updated mine via software updater, you should try.. there is a new equalizer widget in it. But one thing that got me dumbfold is when u access the calender it asked u to log into google =.=

Oh yea those who wants to use mp3 as an alarm ring tone.
just create a folder in the sd card called "notifications" and copy ur prefered song in it.
The standard alarm ring tones are too short

hmm any of you guys successfully disable the camera shutter sound ?. besides setting your phone to silent mode

Motorola products is technically made in china ?? cheap labour ?

its due to the tax and so on. Can't practically do anything unless u take a flight there and buy 1 yourself and next time you claim warranty just go HK.
for AP,
you can claim warranty locally but not @ HK.
*
which means Iphone is made in malaysia thats why Iphone here are standerd price againts Iphone in HK?? i dint know O.O

i thought Iphone were imported too... by anychance Milestone would be made in malaysia too when its available here?? LOLZ


Btw.. more feedback and reviews on your unit... since its HK unit... updating to android 2.1 would be any harder?? The GPS how issit actualy the exact standerd phone or theres something diff base on demographic..

and how does the MotoNav works?? the Turn by turn can be used in malaysia without internet conenction?

Updating from HK unit is practically easy just use your phone and run the system update. takes a while to download the 30.1mb patch
once it download finish everything is practically automatic. after 3-5 minutes of extracting and patching(done automatically) your milestone is up to the version of 2.0.1

or you guys can download it here
http://www.motorola.com.hk/eng/motoupdate/

Well for this i tried the Google Map to locate my location.. curious Google map not properly updated or otherwise. My location is always like few meters different from the exact location.
MotoNav didn't manage to try.. 
It keeps giving me the "Please insert your Motonav SD Card". Still finding a solution of this.
tried this but
https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/...928.node0#89738
it doesn't work

it seems i accidentely delete the Motonav content in the sd card... need to find a way to get it back.

anyway motonav is free for the first 60 days then u need to pay...
*
Ooo... btw... i saw the video showing milestone doing turn by turn ..

is it for the google map or the 60 days Motonav..

btw... do u need an internet connection for the turn by turn or google maps??

Uhm ... then there's isn't any point for 2.1 upgrade cause it seems useless since MILESTONE already had multitouch ==


by the way, i saw many people rooting thier milestone to 2.1 having the active wallpaper and those nexus one features..


If the official one does not do any of those... i guess sticking to 2.0 is better ?

Got  my Milestone from A-bites today, Euro version with 2.0

Happy to see Market but after linking it to Gmail and browsing about 15 mins (nothing downloaded) my balance went down by $30  :-(    Any tips for cutting costs on downloading apps?

Getting message about upgrade. Is this for the 2.1, which is not priority for me?

Can't seem to get Bluetooth to work. Pairing but no connection.

you mean you browse the market also cost RM30??
