For those people that are hoping for the Singapore launch, the price and the no contract phone availability are not known as of today. So most of the "news" or "I heard" are just speculations. Wait till Singtel makes the announcement themselves.

Most of the people are waiting for the Singapore launch because they think they can get the warranty. But if we bought a non contract phone from other place i.e Australia or NZ, won't we able to claim warranty from Apple Singapore too since we're not tied to any contract (provided we restore the phone to clear the jailbreaking)? Last time with the 1st gen phone we can't do this because the phone only available in the US and EU only. If this is true then it doesn't matter where we purchase the phone because we still can claim the warranty from Apple Singapore. Right?

Is it confirmed that the warranty are restricted to region of purchase? I thought that only applied to 1st gen phone since its not available worldwide (is this the correct term ) before.

Added on July 13, 2008, 2:15 pmLet say we bought the phone in Australia or NZ (which is a non contract phone that needs no jailbreaking or unlocking) and then went to US. Suddenly lady luck is not with us and spoil the phone. Can't we just walk in any apple store and claim the warranty? Or do we need to return it back to Australia or NZ? If its the latter then what a bummer.

So we're still out of luck in the warranty department if Singapore's phone is not like the one in NZ. Mmmm ... well thats not a problem to me since i'm not interested in getting one . I'm more interested in FW2.0 itself.
