@prototype_x0 in USA, only AT&T & T-mobile have GSM service... n T-mobile is too small to be a decent partner.
also in Malaysia, its illegal to lock a cellphone to any carrier, so telco have to compete via plans or coverage, not device lock-in.

QUOTE(nonameNo @ Sep 22 2010, 09:35 AM) is a good news for celcom user as i was waiting for it. as said, celcom did mentioned they are not interested to take in iphone due to support issue. so they will focus on blackberry part only. im surprise to hear the news. let's see how the price and plan going to be. hope will be competitive price then, rather than conquer by maxis alone (on ip4). i also heard this one.. they said their system cannot support IPhone.. hmmm

Hi, I did hear about Celcom bringing the iPhones in but October - hmm.. that's pretty soon. My source tells me it's December but ah well, no point speculating. Let's just wait for the announcement and discuss when it's made public

VERY3 STUPID Please lah. Don't speak as if you know how to run a big company. Loyal customers aren't going to jump in the bandwagon simply because of iPhone4. Some people can afford to wait because they have the patience to do so. Some don't even care about the iPhone4. Do you see Celcom went bankrupt when the iPhone3GS was released by Maxis/Digi?

Ahh, good to know that Celcom is finally joining the bandwagon.
This is definitely good for us, consumers.
Now if only we have the same kind of competition for Internet Service Provider.

Late comer may have lost their 1st mover advantage but their can price the plan to beat maxis n digi in later stage.

@vin_ann keep dreaming. Celcom will charge like Maxis n provide a wider coverage. Celcom's customers are the hardest to switch out, cos they got good coverage... lower price will not always get people to switch. what is a better plan? I would like a RM88 plan, unlimited data n RM50 for calls. but no telco in Malaysia has this kind of plan.

Allo black panther, nowadays all people want to have IP4..u also interested on it.. CONFIRM.. otherwise you are not in this thread.. i also a celcom postpaid user maaa just like u.. i also cannot wait.. why do u think celcom suddenly want to provide IP4? this is because IP4 wave lol.. most of their loyal customer (including me and some of my colleague) will lompat to other provider.. who want to stick to Nokia and etc FOREVER..or you can buy IP4 SG set and used on your CELCOM (WIDEST COVERAGE) without Data Plan whatsoever.

i agree that celcom could make the competition stiffer, already digi is hyping up the launch and maxis is doing it this week
