Hello IPhoners,

I wonder where can you get an (cheap, not the cheapest) IPhone in KL? What's the price range? Will a visit to lowyat help? Which shop did you buy from...?

Don't buy iPhone yet, wait another 9 days for the WDC, 99% gonna announce a 3G model (which might be available worldwide)

iPhones now have no warrenty cos they are jailbreaked.

You don't have to move it. The answer is already right above.

iPhone that has been activated by telco carriers that has Apple approval will have warranty. Other than that, outside US or other countries that are not eligible will not have warranty. Doesn't meant that they are jailbreak.

Possibly June 9th. There are 2-3 official events by Apple every year. Early January is MacWorld, early June is WWDC and sometimes early-mid September is Apple Music Event where mostly is about iPod & iTunes. These dates you need to give a glimpse cause usually these events, Apple will be releasing new products and updates. Currently on Mac computers, if there's update on processor and new features implemented... Apple will just secretly update their Apple.com website.


Added on June 4, 2008, 3:49 pmFirst gen iPhone is currently Unavailable according to Apple Store so mostly you'll be buying either second hand units. When new product is release, Apple will sell the older products cheaper and then discontinued it.

just a little bit of my personal idea to buying an iphone...

if u already sign up the 3g unlimited data package. then dont buy now. the 3g iphone is much faster then any 3g phone or 3g pda in current market.

if u dont want to use 3g, then normal standard iphone is perfect enough. i been using my 16gb version iphone. it's working fast, nice, helpful, and perfect. i been lovin it so much.

when the 1st day i get the iphone, i been using it like crazy, but i forgot i dont sign up the data package, end up... my maxis billing for data access is RM592.00
damn expensive bro... i call the maxis center and they dont want to give me some discount...

because of sometime when u run the internet or email application or some games, it will connect to internet without asking for ur permission. so, just watch out bro...
