Hmm, in a way iValue plans can be slightly cheaper too right.
Actually all have pros and cons, just depends on which suits us more.

Thanks for the info man!

There are rumours about the August Event right?
So I guess Apple will announce the release date for August batch at that time.

Yeah, but it seems that Malaysia is very unlikely to be in the August batch.
In a way, we can say that the iPhone 4 is coming very soon too as Maxis asked us to stay tuned in their E-mail, right?
I feel better this way. lol

Pre-order is usually 1 week before the release.
So if its coming out in early September, the pre-order will start in late August.

Sigh, even China is launching iPhone 4 early next month.

Very true. My friends in Australia and the forumers here who already have iPhone 4 mentioned that it isn't an issue.

In fact, the antennagate is never an issue. Those Americans just overblown the real situation. Maybe because the signals are too weak in many of the areas over there.

Just don't get it if you think it's an issue.
So that I have a greater chance to get the phone LOL

What's so dumb about getting an iPhone 4?
Because there are better phones like Blackberry and Android phones?
In my opinion, in terms of productivity and usefulness,
Blackberry is way less productive compared to iPhone due to the lack of apps.
Android phones are very customizable and have the potential, but because its too open, they have no control over their android market which resulted in many malicious and no-privacy apps that could impact the users. They really need to be careful while downloading apps onto their phone.

How ignorant is a person to say that this is dumb.
Nothing is perfect and everything has pros and cons.
Of course, iPhone has many limitations too, but at least I get to do everything I want everyday, without worrying that my info will be disclosed to the public (Those apps that I use are safe, at least).
I'm not like many people who don't wanna use iPhone because its too common.
I love it because its capable of being more than just a phone. Its also an internet device, a gaming device and a very productive tool.
Don't care about the others if you really think that one is good and useful.

This is why I still stick to iPhone since 2007 among these top three brands.

Hmm, its unique.
Don't you realize that its the only brand where almost all of its models come with horizontal screen?
Its like Blackberry's trademark.
RIM used to be famous of its powerful enterprise features but no longer.
Still cool though, I see some girls who can type really fast on their BB. lol

Don't use Apple products especially iPhones and Macs.
Too hard to control yourself, and you can never go back. lol

OMG I'm out of topic.

Its not 88 countries MORE. Its in TOTAL as of September.
Steve mentioned in the keynote that there's an August batch before the September batch.

5 countries in the first batch on the 24th of June,
18 more countries including South Korea in July,
24 countries in August and 40 countries in September.
So its 88 countries in total.

Maybe Apple will merge the August and September batch. No one knows.

Of course there will be a pre-order.

My iValue 2 plan for iPhone 3GS is expiring tomorrow =.=''
And I'm getting a prepaid just to last for the next 2-3 more weeks. Sad.

They said it is a 1 or 2 year plan when you signed up for one.
However they assume that you will continue on this plan should you didn't terminate it and switch to other plans.
I guess I'll get a one-month prepaid plan. lol

Yes, they'll continue it.
Unless you terminate (Termination through calls are not accepted) it in the maxis centre.
This is what they told me when I first thought that Maxis will automatically terminate my iValue plan.

Haha yours is different.
Mine's iValue 2! =.=''
Should have got the iValue1.
Can't believe I paid RM55 extra for every month for 1 year. Sigh

Pre-order is usually 1 week before.

The iPhone 4 antenna is not an issue.

Of course those 3G video calls in the previous years require much lesser bandwidth, as those are 3ggp format. The difference is really big, if you seen both video calls before.

Does anyone know if Maxis accepts Amex or public bank credit card?

We don't need to get the micro sim now, right?
Can just change it and will receive it immediately when we get the iPhone 4. Is it so?

Isn't it RM0.01 per kB?
This is how I was charged this month. SIGH

I checked out with the Maxis center in Pyramid.
Credit cards including AMEX and Diner's as well as debit cards (Maybank with the cherry picture) are acceptable during the upfront purchase only.
AMEX and Diner's are not accepted for installment.
