Finally, there are carriers in Malaysia promoting Android Devices, but boy oh boy, they seriously must be stupid? Why will a local telco company promote a USA telco company Application. Taken from:- http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/android/A...Marketplace.asp as of 30th April 2010



Maxis, must be seriously either
a) stupid, for promoting another company's application which won't work on our local devices, or
b) lazy, for just copy-pasting the application list from the original Android Marketplace.

Also by checking out here:- http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/android/Android_Phones.asp , we can see that there is up to 5 choices of Android phones, which is great, since we get more choices, but the difference between the prices that Maxis offers compare to the regular retail price is only RM400. In USA, the Motorola Milestone is 199USD (it is called the Motorola Droid there) if you buy it from Verizon Wireless with a package, which is around RM700 if you convert it using the current currency exchange rate. Here in Malaysia, we buy it with a package, is around RM1899 (original price RM2299). They really are greedy assholes. They really still dont grasp the concept of how to sell phones.

simply dissapointed...

have been deciding to switch over to yellow man~

Yellow man rocks the boat then.

Meh.. But I love their H connectivity here in KL :-)

Earlier today I noticed the HTC Legend package is RM1499.

Now it is RM1399. LOL.

For those who didnt get it, I was just highlighting how Maxis just copy and paste without even checking kinda sloppy if you ask me

This ad made my day! ROFL

lazy maxis....

official launch 1st May, so the site may be revised i guess

This is a testimony that Android is READY for general consumer. Maxis doing this deal shows that they recognize Android as a upcoming platform. This is the time to get your Androids or consider it as a serious iPhone replacement hehehe...

With maxis and digi promote android phones, general consumer will know about android and their advantages, my friend don't know anything about android, they only know about nokia, se, iphone, i have to educated them about android.

same..they even duno what is windows mobile and symbian..only know manufacture name like nokia,htc,etc
but rly is time for malaysia telco bring more android phone

when i read the advertisement from newspaper,
i hope maxis will have a cheaper plan for us,
at the end,
digi are still the best with data+voice plan,
on maxis,
we should sign for any value+data plan,
and digi only data plan+pay as per use call plan..

Really disappointed to maxis... Digi, really the smarter choice

cheapest for maxis oso rm50+rm58=rm108... digi is only rm68+pay per use (voice)...

guess as at today, digi still de cheapest among all... no doubt crazy celcom is still hugging their data plan of rm168! gila punya... >

time for MNP.
Maxis user are u ready to switch to Digi?

maxis service is sucks since last year. Connection drop when crossing over blackhole. Too many blackhole.

haha...i hope Mr Ananda Krishnan noes bout dis

he no more incharge, he leaves his companies to others to manage
