If this is true, all of us will give you a hug But my guess is RM2499.

Agreed but I still don't get why we still need to impose the tax (besides the obvious $$$ to the Govt)....isn't the Govt. pushing for adoption of tech?
Yes, but only for non-communication devices. Tech stuff like computers yes. Apparently custom officers are very sensitive to the word 'Communication Devices'. I had a few items sent over by my client. They made a wrong declaration by putting them into communication device category and there it goes. For those who attempts to compute a breakdown in costing to get an estimated price, you can't really do that. Because our tax and duty structure is different here. HTC/SiS may even have a different price structure for Malaysia. Its normal for global companies to price a product higher in some regions to compensate for attractive pricing of the same product in another region. In other words, there are a lot of factors and variables to account for to get a clear indication what price it may be. Its as good as anyone's guess.
Don't we already know? People price a product however they want it be and there will still be people buying it. Its rampant here. Its only recently I see main brands like Apple playing nice with their product pricing. And so on... Frankly speaking, the Legend going for RM1999 is a good start for SiS. I hope it doesn't end there.
