iphone application is increasing in number. maybe after price drop and iunlock, there are more people demanding/contributing more application.

btw,

anyone know how to disable edge? i tried using Deedge but it didnt work. anyone has success with it. AT&T charge me 1.5 cent per KB without the package.

yup aware of that.

o alright. so basically you can get the phone without the need to subscribe to the telco / sign contract.

coz normally you wont get that in UK, unless you pay the phone as sim free set at much expensive price.

got it! above explains why now.

How is AT&T charging you? Did you open an AT&T account? Are you roaming from Malaysia (??!!)

I'm in the US now

I just tried the new Gui Unlock method. My finding:

1. I can use maxis simcard in the US (finally!!)
2. I can receive sms and call in
3. but cannot call out and sms out
4. *122# works and tells me the baki
5. topup using *111* also works

this result is using maxis sim card while roaming (under AT&T carrier). so malaysia result may differ.

hmmm cannot sms and call in
how come only maxis got such prob

huh... finally can disable edge.. that stupid things cost me 5usd since u used it for 4 days

The price for iPhone compnents is actually just around USD199. So, seeing how Apple is selling it at 599 and now 399, they're making enough money to pay back their research cost. They're tied to AT&T because of the 10% revenue sharing and so they can roll out features like Visual Voicemail. They could have easily not do so, just less $$ for them and since they have no experience, it's a good move. They tried it with Motorola, and now AT&T, soon they might even start becoming a telco themselves

1million iPhones with 10% revenue is like 7 million per month without doing anything. 2 years = 168million. Check ur facts.

USD199? And who told you so?

And how you know they're earning enough? And how you know how much is their R&D cost? You work for them?
making a lot of assumption there huh?

Aren't your last statement supporting mine?
I wonder who that's need to check the fact here.

I believe most of the cons of the iPhone can be sorted by just a firmware update, for example the sms forward, e-mail attachments and stuff.

btw..AT&T store.. can go straight in buy without signing line?
and is there any 3rd party application for iphone ?

but after u update the firmware..phone will be locked again..and i might be easy to unlock it again...just my opinion

i heard already got unlock methods for v1.0.2

Hmm got poisoned to buy one?

haha my brother already bought 1 for himself and coming back soon
but dunno he managed to go to the shop and buy 1 for me b4 his plane fly

hehe amusing. i think the people should be responding is the people who is using an iphone as we speak.

you don't have to subscribe to AT&T when you purchased an iphone from the US. when you buy an iphone, you are required to activate it via itunes. so if you dont activate it, then you just have a locked iphone. but since there's countless ways to unlock it, then..lol...

theres so many paranoid people in this thread.

doesn't mean when u purchased the iphone for 399USD, its compulsory that you sign up with AT&T and get billed monthly..thats entirely up to you..not them..

icic
cause at first i thought is have to sign up with it
now only i know u don't have to
now my bro is waiting to use it on DIGI network
ahha

i also facing the maxis problem with my iphone ... so my temporary solution is activate call forwarding service from my maxis line ... then hold 2 phones at the same time ...

wat to do

dont know who is the first hero that can solve this maxis problem leh!? must salute to him

hmmm hokkianu bro
ur iphone is in wat version?
