With my "work" behind me now, I can concentrate on the launch tomorrow. Anybody going for the launch at midnight as wanna meet up, or test FaceTime? I'm definitely going and will be there with my MiFi so that we can try FaceTime. Wanna get in on the festivities and tweet-on-the-spot on the happenings at the launch.

Feel want to try...But how to meet up?

I'll probably designate a place to meet close enough to the launch venue, and tweet it from there for the location to meet. I dont think other hangout places around the immediate area are open at that time.

You were right. You were right all along! I got to someone who knew what he was talking about at a maxis centre and yes phones need to be the second one if u want to buy outright.

My friend is getting the ivalue plan and the second phone  she booked I intend to buy outright using credit card under my name.  Hope they don't give me a hard time for that since the credit card will be under my name.

No problem. I dont post predictions or expectations that subconsciously hangs on one's preference, without hard evidence. Now the question is, do they let you get it on launch day, or will they ask you to come back on 26th/27th?

oh.... i nvr thought like that..... is it possible?

I dont have the answer to that, it depends on their discretion on launch day. Remember I posted the alloted numbers available on the different days and time of the launch? On my documents it did not state if they are strictly only allocation for those buying with a plan, or if there are allocation for outright purchases.

I would read the confirmation email as if I am able to get it there and then.

The title says "Thank you for booking an iPhone 4 from Maxis"

The launch details provide the 'pick up' date and time and location.

So I'd take it as if it is at the bare minimum, 51% likelihood of us getting it there and then.

What I meant was allocation for "buy outright" units. I'm sure those coming to the launch will get their units there and then. They may not allow "buy outright" unit to be purchased until 26th/27th.

Well the Guy in the polo shirt said ( if I remember right ) That for launch day you need to buy the iphone with an ivalue plan , then the second phone you can buy outright. Otherwise, you have to get it on 26th onwards.
That's the first obstacle (LOL) The next issue is she booked 16 GB by mistake for me when in fact I wanted the 32 GB. However I booked 32 GB as well under my my name but I don't want the iValue. I'm hoping to transfer that 32 GB under my name to switch with the 16GB .

I pray you're right. Weird that they did not specify that option being available, but probably just to maximise the amount of people getting it on plan by not making that option known to public.

Making my way out to Gardens now. Dinner first then scouting the location with on-the-spot tweets and pics. Pics will only be on my tweets, to save from flooding this thread with pics. Probably will be posting just one or two screenshots here only.

Do you guys need a meet up thread for tonite's launch? Let me know.

I'll set it up.

That's probably a good idea. I'll be there with a couple other forumers so if a dedicated thread is up, then easier to arrange meetups.

I'll be there with my MiFi so FaceTime is definitely a go. Ample power supply too with my portable external battery.

Yes, you're allowed to bring a guest -- but the guest has no power to purchase a plan or phone.

Are you sure about that? tongue.gif brows.gif

Yes you can. Whether your guest is willing to wait there with you is another story altogether.
