Risks of being an iPhone early adopter in Malaysia....

1. snatch theft, kidnap, ransom by other people envious of your iPhone
2. bugs causing the iPhone to crash/fail while you demo it
3. laughed at by your colleagues for buying a RM 2.5k phone without 3G
4. no spare parts, warranty or support if something doesn't work

early adopter = grey imported US phone

1. I believe that's a risk for any phone you use, only iPhone will have higher chance of attracting thiefs (coz rare)

2. Bugs can be fixed by updating the system OS...

3. The Nokia Sirocco, upcoming Nokia Luna & a lot other fashion phones also cost a bomb without 3G (EDGE/HSDPA)

4. Too bad then... XD

This has got to be one of the most pointless topic posted... Haha...

snatcher never bother what model of phone u use .
my friend using 3310 .. also kena .

but wait, early adopter of iphone in malaysia,

I think rich apple geeks oso wanna snatch ur phone, wahhaa.

you guys... how do you know it will work here in Malaysia? Apple is making it exclusive to AT&T Wireless, which usually means it will be network locked. How about testing in the US with a Sprint PCS or T-Mobile SIM card, and finding out?

but i'm laughing out loud for those using 3G phone but never use them, n knows nothing bout 3G. hahahaha

quite agree wif this...i have many frens using 3g phone but when ask them to show they say they never use the function b4...so wats the point of having 3g phone then??hehehe

Just some ridiculous points of view and needed to open a thread? Why can't you continue it in The iPhone Thread.

Why do you care so much about 3G, show off? Let your friends laugh, they don't know Mac OS X. If they do, they'll envy you. Don't show off too much and please take a good care of your iPhone, by this no any kidnapping/ransom or theft cases. Final release of the iPhone must have the bugs cleaned up already. If you're living in the States, you can go to any Apple Store for warranty or problem.

Please merge this thread ...or purge it

why seldom ppl think about that bolded phrase? i bet it need take at least 3-6month to success unlocked or longer or never FU~FU~ FU~ You guys should know that apple is good in those security field.

because people here apparently prefer talking (posting) rather than doing some research

I have no idea how are you going to use it in a Malaysian Network unless you pay $599 for the IPhone and an extra $200 to terminate your contract with AT&T.Honestly,for $799,I rather save the money and get a Nokia N95

1.Snatch theft?even 3310's also a target for snatchers,ransom?4 wat?haha..better ask ransom money 1mil..
2. i believe thats Apple will never release something 'beta' or test unit to public..unless like Safari that is for Windows
3. Sirocco RM3k=no 3g? Vertu RM10k> no 3g? Nobody will laugh if u use iPhone in Msia..
yeah..got 3g but not utilize the function also no use
4. spare parts? i believe a lot Apple shop in malaysia..

@ themanwithnoname, your attitude is a little scary.

Just cos there's a Sony shop doesn't mean they'll support any and all Sony items you bring in, for free.
And none of you cared to address the point what if its network locked?

I mean, do you know what happens if you parallel import a Honda car here, and then ask for service from a Honda dealer here? they're free to charge you whatever they please...
