It's a gamble game on the tax thing.
Tax is small matter, max is about 200-300, still cheaper than paying the rip-off local unlock set. The SIRIM application is the headache part. You have to run here and there just to get the bladdy fuggly stick on your iPhone. Totally spoilt the whole fun.
wei, do give us an update when you get your phone whether you had to pay taxes and whether or not you have to go through sirim etc. I've bought several things from the US to be shipped here, so far only one got taxed (some cables, go figure).
Anyone else interested in getting an iPhone? I might just order it from the US if wei's experience is positive and if I can get another two people to share the shipping costs with me. RM1800-1900 max should cover everything, not including local taxes.

I've had electronic items shipped to me via Fedex and DHL. Both typically will call you if there are any taxes to be paid. They will get your confirmation that you will pay, and you do COD when it arrives at your door.
