i dont think the price will be high as jobs said int the keynote that 199usd is the maximum price in every countries.
but maybe the plans from telco may get high..

yeah. Steve say only for $199. No more than that. But maybe it will tight with the telco price.

You mean "tie" with telco price?

From USD599 to USD399 and now even better with 3G @ USD199.

IMHO, at USD199 the phone can only be obtain via telco's plan for 2 years

owh sheet...

The moved the dock worth USD29. It's sad because I love the convenience of docking.

The only way to get the phone without telco's plan is to buy one with the contract then cancel your bank account... you will have the phone for $199 and not tie with the contract (Before you do this just wanted to remind you guys that this is illegal)

got iphone in msia meh?

i thought only selected countries has $199 price ?

this is not only illegal .. this is crime and you can go to jail for this ..

It's 199 for 8GB, and 299 for 16GB. When the iPhone launches in Singapore, we will probably get it after them, maybe a month later.

BTW, I think the local telco's are giving Apple a hard time over here, maybe that was why no "Malaysia" mentioned in listing.

But normally when a product launches in Singapore, Malaysia will get it as well. As for the price of the phone, I think it's going to be around the iPod touch's price.

Geez, everyone in my company is waiting for the iPhone.. it's a bonus from our company, haha...

Not this time...

errr no...


even in the uk, the most that they can do is just to send you countless legal letters.

still u only can have it with contract..

same like ps3 case, if u wait for official release in malaysia, maybe ps4 already launched in japan.

Apple say"TWICE AS FAST,HALF THE PRICE" at US only

At Malaysia is"NOT SO FAST,DOUBLE THE PRICE" lol

i wish they'll still keep the usd199 price.
exact conversion to rm.

haih.

drooling already over this phone.

no free lunch.

Some people just don't understand, yet. Sigh!

$199 makes everybody go wishful thinking.

LOL.... Steve jobs is great mar... Tell ppl the whole world it is 199 BUT... need to sign contract... Country like Malaysia dun really understand about that... Also the commission from Malaysia from monthly spending it not worth them bringing into Malaysia. Corporate user in UK and America pays on average GBP 100 - 150 per month for their bills... and i doubt we have many that pays that and would like to use iphone... having said that, it seems like iphone will never set foot into malaysia like many other game consoles... Just not worth to brings in...
