Received sms from Maxis

RM0. Maxis iPhone5 Launch Prebooking: We have ran out of 32GB/ 64GB. You may select 16GB at the launch event (Capital Square, KL) or we will notify you when the stocks arrive.

If we already prebook on 32/64GB, do we still need to go or wait for notify?

They doesnt allocate stock for ROI customers. The maxis supervisor say many ROI for 16GB and ending with 32 or 64 GB. Thats why they running low stock and they allow them to change capacity on the spot. Bad practice i'd say.

It depends,

I guess it is the thrill of queing up with other many fan boys just to get one of the most amazing phone on earth. It has been a tradition for almost all I-phone model launch around the world.

The feeling of getting the something that you want without much hassle is not so satisfactory, compared to the challenge,the wait, the adrenaline rush, excitement, bragging rights and ego of personally searching for something so long awaited by a fanboy. I could personally order online to save the hassle of all this, but i choose to hard path because I find the experience very rewarding and it gives me a higher satisfaction of owning the most amazing phone yet!

It is not just about getting the phone, rather that it is the exciting and challenging journey and experience that one true fan boy will truly enjoy and cherish. Because you did it yourself!

But then, this is just my personal opinion, others may think otherwise.

Yeah . I too choose the hard way . Been going for launch event for past few iphones. I love the atmosphere but joining the corporate side instead tongue.gif . After the launch event , I dont advise just hunting down iphone every morning to numerous outlet. Its better to order online. I dont see the point queuing outside the outlet store.
