No, don't believe. Back your belief up. Why do you think so?

Exactly. Come on lah guys, be logical and realistic. You don't expect the newly iPhone 3G to be cheaper than iPod Touch???

steve jobs not so stupid one leh.. he said $199, doesnt mean it will be $199 worldwide without the plan.. like wat others have said, the full cost of the 3g has been subsidised by the telcos if its $199.. look at the plan u already know.. like wat optus is offering.. madness.. rip off..

whatever he, or everyone said in the conference have been planned properly already.. u think they go up there the n just talk without planning one meh.. marketing is the word.. i can tell u that i'll sell my current ferarri for RM50.. and charge about rm1k for the shipping cost to ur place.. but then i'll also charge another RM 2m as service charge..

but, if u think about it. RM2.5k for the 8gb version is quite reasonable already since the price for the first iphone is about rm1.8k.. and its still cheaper than the HTC TYTN II! and better! i used the tytn2 for a few mins my fingers already tired.. have to use the.. i duno wat stick is that.. LOL. .

I actually wrote something about it earlier too.....

I strongly think that the main concern now is whether the phone can be used without signing contract with the telco without being penalised. Although UK somehow is willing to do it by hiking up the end price of the phone, it is still expensive as the cost is RM2540 for the 8GB model as one forumer has earlier pointed out. By the time it reaches here, the sellers here will hike up the price somemore.

But as I mention, price we worry later. For now, we need to wait till 11th July and see if the phone can be telco-bound-free. If that cannot materialise, then honestly speaking it'll be quite hard to use it here....unless our telcos are willing to subsidize the phone.

That's just my 2 cents. Thank you.


Cheers

ya, just have to wait till July and see.

So 3G iphone will available in July?The price wise,how much?for 8GB model?

rough estimation: above 2K

no one know how much will it cost to buy just the Phone yet, but most probably close to RM2k.

So much for 199$
