QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Sep 21 2010, 10:49 AM) @gurus, Yes but it's not available at launch time [outright purchases] Also, Maxis has stated they will give 24 months warranty to those who's signing on a 24 month contract. icic..thx for the correction. already edit my previous post anyway its nice of them to include the 2nd year warranty from maxis

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Sep 21 2010, 10:54 AM) @mrhenree, Just go to the landing page (http://maxis.com.my/personal/iphone4/landing.asp) and scroll to the bottom. It's written there: "Customers on a 24 month plan can now enjoy extended warranty up to 24 months with a new iPhone 4." I'm thinking to change back to 12 months to reduce my commitment. Now i see some value here. Mind to share with me is there apple care protection plan for iPhone in malaysia? how much is that? (I check http://store.apple.com/my/browse/home/applecare dont have. )

QUOTE(Joey-kun @ Sep 21 2010, 10:57 AM) hi guys, if maxis never send me any email to buy iphone on this thursday can i still go and buy? i think you would still need to register first for this thursday event. if not then you can go purchase an iphone when it is released for public. how come you didnt register your interest for iPhone 4 in the first place?

@mrhenree, No AppleCare available in MY @Joey-kun, U will need to pre-book in order to get ur unit on Thursday. Get the link from Maxis Facebook page or scroll back a few pages for the pre-order / reservation link This post has been edited by tinkerbel: Sep 21 2010, 11:23 AM

Just want to do quick survey here.  my option go to 24 month contract because : ~ i dono which plan to take after 1 year without the plan and is not worth to choose idata plan after 1 year unless the price lower down again la ... ~ 24 month warranty ~ and all my previous phone im using also used around 2 year and more than 2 year ... but my mindset can change easily if digi came out attractive price plan b4 24 sept  haha

im with crixalisrox  after 1 year...if i take value plus 50 + mobile internet rm58... end up slightly more expensive after two years (rm4366 vs rm4150). this is assuming im paying rm115 monthly (ivalue 1 + 150 sms off-net, my average this year  ). so that's 1390+24*115 compared to 1690+12*115+12*(50+58). valueplus 30 is too little for me my previous phone also 2 year plus hehe.

Was thinking to update my value 50 to ivalue 1 once my contract ends next month. My bill was like 120-130 each month including the idata plan.

Managed to book a slot for the midnight launch Sure will see a lot of forummers joining this happening event even it's at midnight  I'm already an iphone 4 owner The main purpose I book is to upgrade my current 3GS contract to the iphone 4 contract which double up the free data from 500MB to 1GB as well as SMS and MMS The down point is now I'll be tied to Maxis for another 12 months

I registered my interest just a few hours after the interest registration page is available...lol....And I don't get anything from them....From what I understand...Firstly, to obtain a chance in getting the email, we need to register ourselves as principal line owner...Secondly, they said that the event codes are given out randomly to all whom have registered their interest..
