lol 'sup with the rage about sense 3.0? Not everyone wants dual cores. Sense 3.0 is how they differentiate between mid range and high end.

Do u think this will affect their sales? They already clarified that they will bring some of the 3.0 features. Probably no 3D effects for single core phones? Beats me. So anyway we can only buy the phone from Maxis? So if i want to buy without any strings attached i have to pay 1799? Sorry i have no experience in this telco exlcusivity thingy since i'm still using a Nokia.  What about warranty?  Other choice would be AP set right?

If im not mistaken, we need to wait for a month or so until SIS release the phone exclusivity from Telco. Im currently on hotlink for more than 10yrs. Heavily thinking whether it is the wise choice to jump into maxis postpaid for this phone...

Maxis postpaid is not worth it. Especially if you use the internet a lot. Bill shocks will cause heart attacks. Go for the Incredible S instead.

But maxis FAQ say this. Can I purchase the Android™ device without a contract? Yes. You may purchase the Android™ device outright based on its RRP. sos http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/android/Android_FAQ.asp

So you can just buy from them straightaway. But probably can't nego the 1799 price.  Added on April 16, 2011, 11:13 pmexkay: Do Maxis have them in both Silver & Black? This post has been edited by Joseph Hahn: Apr 16 2011, 11:13 PM
