You are pretty right, Voda in NZ is sucking blood in NZ due to lack of competition. Well, at least here in Aus we have telstra, Optus, virgin and voda offer iphone so the price is not that bad compared to NZ. But honestly i regret of taking 500mb data plan coz i use less than that each month, only about 130mb, what a waste. Even 1GB is more than enough, unless u dun have pc or u always travel. Well, but looking at the good side, though it is unlimited 3G in malaysia but the signal and connection is not as good as it should be.

rm300 or rm3000???

soon is too universal.... prior to the the tread topic.... soon
just want to say this..... we may already have online apple store... hopefully we'll have our own apple store here in malaysia.... but even by then.... im so sceptic of iphone coming to malaysia.... but the case soon is too general.
so malaysian... go get ur iphone somewhere or be ready to be rip apart by the handphone sellers....
it aint coming SOON enough....

myb he meant RM300 from the total of amount he saved/allocated to buy the iPhone

iphone coming to msia o.O

The puzzle pieces are falling into place.

I have stated before we needed a couple of conditions before we could ever see a locally launched iPhone in Malaysia.

1. Our own iTunes Music Store. Check! We have that since the launch of the Malaysian iPod Touch. Reason being, the iPhone needs the iTunes to connect online via the iTMS to verify the authenticity of your iPhone, and unlocks it for proper usage (not third part unlock/jailbroken).

2. Our own online Apple Store. Check! This just in a few days back. This is to facilitate the purchase of the iPhone itself, should the locally appointed telco could not cope with the demand. The Online Apple Store also can be used as proxy on behalf of Maxis/or whoever gets the iPhone contract here, to that when the unit itself in purchased via the online Apple Store, the activation process can be directed towards a Maxis-specific portal.

3. A local telco willing to bend over to Apple's whims. This remains to be seen, and remains to be seen if the general public here would respond well to contractual obligations (tied to a two year contract). We are only used to buying our phones and subscribing to plans that measures our talk/data usage AS WE USE THEM, not on a contract basis.

Point #3 is the last hurdle needed to be overcome before we see iPhone Malaysian edition.

I smell celcom already...muahahahah

@ string,

just a quick question, are u on any data plan for your Celcom line now?

@string,
Sorry OT,

How's the usage then? I tried the maxis unlimited data plan and the speed and coverage is seriously crap. Thought of changing to Celcom since MNP is around.

Thanks for your reply.

OT mode on.

@derlin,
Pretty good, especially around Klang Valley. I roam around KLCC, Kelana Jaya, PJ and the ultimate test, to me at least, is to get acceptable 3G coverage while I'm using it on the ERL train to KLIA. There are several blackout spots but it gets better after passing the Bandar Tasik Selatan station. Coming into Putrajaya, maximum speed, and KLIA, the whole airport is covered with excellent speed as well.

Celcom 3G so far ok
i using the same plan as string

the line speed some time fast some time slow
depend on area
n i found tat iPhone safari by time to time will stuck,
which mean it din load, till u have to restart the safari a few time only it start to load

and from a 3G area to another 3G area
i blame their DHCP not doing a good job assigning our line well
it stuck n take a while only u can continue load
to be honest
malaysia 3G service sux!
no matter what telco

but still i feel celcom better than maxis

@String and Coolerthings,

OT again!

Thanks for the reply. One last question, are u able to login to fring or any messenger using ur data plan (Not wifi)? I tried mine with a few areas (PJ area like SS2, SS16, Sunway area around pyramid, SS15, Kajang, Cheras, Damansara area, all these areas i can't logon at all, it gets timeout. Most of the time i'm on Edge rather than 3G..

Can ignore places like KLCC since bloody maxis tower is so near so surely those places sure can connect..

Note: Maxis Wireless Broadband has the same problem as well!

Salutes for your hasty reply!
