The price would drop because if it is the same price as the Iphone 4 32gb, I don't think anybody would want to buy the 3gs 32gb.

Price should not be too expensive but I am worried at the beginning they wont sell the Iphones without a plan.

Final verdict after talking to people from maxis center not the Maxis MEP or dealer..

Source from people in front desk to behind the scene brows.gif , until today no information has been released by maxis top management regarding the Iphone 4 plan/price or date of release to the maxis centers and MEP/dealer.

However I managed to get the name and mobile number to the management team for *ahem*

Maybe once it launches I can help you all if possible.. Hopefully he doesn't forget me lol..

Also many people enquired about the mid sale iphone 3gs promotion.. Currently no stock in the maxis center..

Bangsar branch got stock till the last day I worked.. Now don't know still got anot..

Two stages pre-order is it one stage for staff and second stage for maxis customers..?

Few of the staff working in Maxis center are also waiting to buy the Iphone 4 themselves.

By right pre-order should get the Iphone 4 faster than those who did not pre-order. But sometimes the Maxis center no stock and have to wait for stock, so pre-order also need to wait.

I planing to pre-order then ask contact to reserve the unit before stock runs out.I notice the "Out of stock" currently with the 3GS mid year promotion, Maxis center no stock at all need go waiting list but bangsar MEP can straight walk in and get stock.

Get contacts in Maxis center, I am sure they can just keep one unit in the office on the reason of reservation for loyal customer that is what I am gonna try to do brows.gif

For the pre-order, does all Maxis center provide collection of the Iphone or only the KLCC Maxis Center..?

First in line, eh? So the "wait and see" fence-sitting stance along with the complaints before has changed to this?  whistling.gif
It's only an issue if you make it one. For the rest who already have theirs and confirmed their observation, it's not even an issue at all, more like overblown out of proportion and the general public eats it up like mindless sheep. whistling.gif

I would like to point it out to you again that your "wait and see" theory is doh.gif . As I said before Iphone 4 has not even reach our shores yet of course Malaysians including me will "wait and see" until it launches here. I have a preference to the warranty and rather not get other countries set and also not willing to pay higher price to people selling it. As you always said go get the Iphone 4 before complaining/discussing about the reception issue which is so sensitive. So YES i want be be FIRST IN LINE to test it out myself and if it is crap I can sell it off easily as I am sure Maxis gonna run out of stock whistling.gif
Also in my context of "first in line" meant that I am trying to skip the queue rather than waiting long hours just to get it not like some people who get it first just to flash it around as they go outside sweat.gif

I also don't think it is maxis set. Ask him to show your the maxis warranty card.

Actually maxis plan is good for those high users like people already on postpaid or prepaid monthly bill same as the plan. Those people can enjoy a new phone and package with what they existing already paying. For people like me prepaid one month around RM30 sometimes less take the plan burn a big hole in the pocket laugh.gif

Hay guise.

I sent an used unit of iPhone 4 (bought on April 29, 2011) to Maxis KLCC about two days ago, due to loose part inside the iPhone (there was rattling sounds when I and Maxis reps shake the iPhone).

So they changed the iPhone 1 to 1 with a replacement unit. All settled in 30 minutes sans the usual waiting game before you see those reps.

Several things I observed.

1. They don't know/don't care if I JB the unit. Obviously I sent it in restored to stock.

2. They claimed the replacement unit is indeed new. I don't think so.

3. The replacement unit, OUT OF THE BOX ALSO GOT RATTLING SOUND. Almost similar things happen to my wife's new set.

On April 29 (the day I bought two units of iPhone 4) out of the box, there is no sound. They brought the unit somewhere else, and came back. Suddenly got sound.

Now my wife's unit sometime no sound. When she massages a bit beside the Home Button, the sound comes back. She don't want to change 1 to 1. Malas she said.

So my point is, when you go to replace any unit do check it super meticulously. I got rattling sound from my 1st iPhone 4 (1 month old), I got rattling sound from my 2nd iPhone 4 (several seconds old), my wife got NO sound from her iPhone 4.

Now I'm on my third unit of iPhone 4. So far so good.

Did you check whether your iPhone 4 replacement set has a yellow screen or blue tint screen ? My friend got replacement klcc also but yellow screen unit. Complained again they say it is due to different LCD manufacturer therefore yellow.
