just a thought- maybe its delayed here because 3G quality in malaysia is so bad?

since when did the telcos improve on our 3G quality? rolleyes.gif

when you compare the speed between 3G & HSDPA, you will see the BIG difference.

Apple website says :"Twice as fast, Half the price."

if i am not mistaken, when the first gen of iPhone is brought in to malaysia, they jack us the price as much as RM500++

so i'd assume it would be around RM 1.5k+/- huh unsure.gif

awwww my iphone price is depreciated kao kao liao~!!

maybe Apple will roll out a "3G Video Call Dock" (as an accessory, making extra money again!)

when you want to do video call, you put your iphone on the dock (nokia has been doing that since their nokia 6630 era) rolleyes.gif

Hi, I don't know much about iphone but I would like to ask your opinion. Does bluetooth mean a lot to you? I used to have a bluetooth phone and I enjoy sending and receiving pictures with my friends. However, if I got iphone, will i feel miss out a lot?

sadly, the iphone bluetooth is not meant for sending/receiveing data.

it cost $199 if only if you get it on 2 years contract.

unless your cousin is willing to pay every month for 2 years for the contract, you wont be able to get it at $199 only.
