apa yang boleh? nobody would know for certain

still need to wait ar?

petrol price has higher chance of dropping down to 1.92 than iphone coming in.....

LOL

iphone wont come...will pass by only

good one!

No need to come Malaysia.. alot of people already have them..

True.. Now u can get it easily in here but all u need is enough $$$ to buy. Same thing also if the iphone 3G launch here, no $$$ no iphone. Now Malaysia colored with Iphone 3G from all over the world. ( Australia/Singapore/USA/Hong Kong and many more..)

if the official iphone 3g come to late,just buy a locked one because the official dev team is almost achieve to unlock the iphone 3g via SOFTWARE UNLOCK.

yes you are right SuperG (but to an extend). surely we know that locked iphones are cheaper. however experience from the previous generation will tell us that artificially unlocked units will still possess disadvantages as compared to officially unlocked units.


when i was using maxis on my artificially unlocked first gen iphone (software unlocked), the rate of call failures/dropped calls/unsent text messages were so high that i almost gave up on iphone permanently. but when i migrated over to an officially unlocked unit from SingTel, (which i'm very glad i did) i have never experienced such unfortunate incidents anymore. now that's what i call a truly pleasant experience with my iphone!


not to mention, with the upcoming fw 2.2 coming along, i will be glad as hell to be able to click the "update" tab for my 3G without any sorts of hesitation! no more keeping my fingers cross that someone will be able to overcome the so called cheap-skate 3G individuals disabilities.

yes you right,the dev team did said if you want to unlock the iphone 3g,but you must not EVER upgrade to software 2.2 which got sum good goodies.

thts one of the disadvantage,my guess the best solution is just to wait for official launch (like tht's gonna happen soon,duh),

but having a unlocked iphone is better than not to have one,rite?

my unlocked iphone still call drop quite often...

well not for me definitely! maxis has been serving me well ever since!

Added on November 21, 2008, 11:25 amfrom my personal point of view, not upgrading to the latest fw is not the main concern, mine is actually those call failures/dropped calls/unsent text messages. i mean it's a phone afterall. imagine having the need to make an urgent phone call, and you are faced with all these travesties (i swear to God, that i feel like smashing my first generation iphone on the floor sometimes)

one other way to buy unlocked iphone 3g,if you have a friend or relatives in singapore,ask them to buy an iphone which bound to sum plan (but still it is unlocked bcos singapore doesn't allow locked phone) which around 308$ singapore dollar for 16gb version then pick the cheapest monthly plan for about 52$ then after a month, terminate your subscribed plan and you'l get a penalty of 800$ .aafter tht,your iphone 3g is free to use!(not to bound on any contract,unlocked)
if you do the calculations 308+52+800= 1160$ is only bout rm 2700 sumthing.thts alot cheap than the iphone 3g tht sell in malaysia,
