no way ... jose ... !!! i phone 3G in malaysia ... you must be "DREAMING"

with all the local telco in the market ... whom are only
aiming to squeeze $$$$ from the user ....

i really doubt that .. this item will be in malaysia .. !!

reason as follow ..

1) how good is OUR line signal for 3G data ... ( not talking of so many blind spot in town or outside town )

2) with this POOR signal ,,, you think the engineer of APPLE is going to give a "GREEN LIGHT" for approval
( whose reputation in more important .. apple , or maxis ( all our telco )

3) consumer behaviour...
How many of us would like to sign up for the unlimitted data usage with our telco .
( afterall this is the ONLY best Option to use this Iphone ..)

4) even our 3G video call is total failure ... that is to show that our consumer are NOT ready yet ..

5) and as for the account on itunes .. well .. so far it is only to attracted more on people using the i touch

this is my opinion

I waited ... waited and now finally comes .. hopefully in the next 10 hours ... news will flash .....

and looking forward to hold it in my hand "malaysia officlally I phone 16G


hey fren outhere ...

when making the "maths" of us 299 (16 G ) with 2 yrs contracts... unlimited usage of GPRS and 3g data ...( IN USA )

the story goes like this ..

my USA counterpart office mate .. got this infor for me ...

he paid ... yes US 299 for 16G set and contract US 65.00 per month for 2 yrs .. included unlimited usage of data and gprs BUT NOT call time ...

so .. he surf lots of data on the set but limited CALL time.


so all in all he paid US 1859.00 so far ... 2 yrs of usage ...

which is equal to RM 6910.82

AT & T is even more blood sucking compare to our Maxis ...

and if maxis would retail it at RM 2599 16set . with 1 year contract of RM 150.00 per month ...( if with unlimited usage of data )
equal to RM 4399.00

maths show that malaysia is still cheaper to own and use this "I phone "

of the 5 months you are using .. have u surf or usage the data unlimited .... or you just call and answer call ...

then this is Not the right way to comment about "worth"

bro..dun compare la.. US ppl stay there 1 ma.. 1.8k USD is very cheap for everything...

set like AUS or SG set... iphone price around $600 + 2 years contract = around RM2k+ for the 16gb version..they paid everything completely only they sell RM2.7k at GS... meaning the line they are using is free for them...this is what u call cheap compare to maxis.. else how u think ppl at GS can earn??

very interesting .. !!! why ppl only compare I phone ... $$$ and not mac book or apple computer ... cos .. for those .. whom are using this is also paying more expensive as compare outside malaysia ...


maybe cos .. mac computer does not have unlock version or jailbreak version .... hahahahahahahahah


interesting ..right ... !! saying this b'cos .. i am an apple user for the last 8 yrs ...

it is logic neither same price with our neighbour instead, coz maxis won't be so stupid until let all other people who wish to have iphone flow away to neighbour country to buy...

we can get the iphone from singapore with 2700++ , why our own country we cant?
*
it is only "logic" to match the $$$ with SIN telco deal ) if not lower $$$

cos next door up north is NOT the enemy for them ... but down south is ...


so ,,, the deal must be (should) be ALMOST the same as down south ....
