So Bro String, I can just ask sum1 to get one iPhone from NZ and i can use it straight away with my sim card correct?

Yes. This applies should the same criteria remains.

Still no decently-priced Aifontriji bluks locally yet. Any luck with the roster lady yet, mate? NZ1.1k is still rather steep considering the fact that it was supposed to be "half the price" But yeah, I guess it's only 'fair' (in Apple ideology ) that we pay a BIG premium for not being victimized by outrageous data plans abroad.

hmm..waiting for tumpang thread..but i guess nxt mnth the soonest

Kudos to you Stringfellow - the gadget pioneer who braves dangerous waters! All my worries about the iPhone 3G have now been quashed thanks to your testing.

My Maxis SIM Card and US iTunes account eagerly await the "tumpang" bulk buy from New Zealand. Thanks String, I know where this month's salary is going.

My pleasure. I was biting my nails worrying as well, gald it turned out in my favour. It also helps when you have people who are going to go out of their way to help you. Kudos to Psyeo and Cocklea for this.

The verdict, on whether I get NZ flight next month or not, will come in less than 16 hours, when office opens tomorrow. I dont know how many times I say this, but pray for me.

Excellent, well I'm certainly praying for you to go! (although I must admit my intentions aren't entirely unselfish...) Hope you are enjoying your victory

OT : Malaysia airlines has started putting multicolored seats in their planes (orange/red/green/blue/etc.) - must be trying to get a Disney brand-association or something...

MacGuyver, am I reading this correct? You are going to help people buy iPhones from NZ IF your management sends you there?

MacGuyver???

Haha~! Ok, my mistale. Airwolf guy.

Slip-up on design department. Lucky we dont see that on my fleet. *barf*

Alright...slip up. It is Airwolf's Stringfellow Hawke, if I'm not mistaken, again. So, if you are flying to Auckland, you would be helping people out with the purchase?

Keep an eye out on the Tumpang thread.

Can tell the price u bought for it again? Need to plan my budget now..

It's on first page lah. About RM2800 to RM3000 depending on the exchange rate.

every body is waiting your tumpang thread...hahaha...
since Iphone come to malaysia still a dream or rumors....

hey..so hw?

aprroved r? hehe

can iphone use with msn messenger or anyhting?

Use Meebo.

Okay, just another point to stress here. If you have activated and used MobileMe and use that service to push and update your contacts and iCal into your iPhone, there's a glitch.

The glitch is, MobileMe "Push" feature work only over WWAN , meaning 3G. I was looking through my contacts details today, and they are all missing their phone numbers! Something is definitely wrong with MobileMe, as you canobviously find out from recent news ,that Apple is working the kinks out of that system. In iTunes 7.7, you either actuvate your MobileMe to be used as your sync/"Push" to your iPhone or the Sync tab in your iTunes to do the same thing. It is either/or not "and", so you cant use both. What I had to do was delete my MobileMe setting on my iPhone, and resync it back using iTunes "Info" tab sync, to retrieve back the missing data.

Note, this has nothing to do with 3G, it is working fine. It is the iPhone/MobileMe integration that is still on the fritz right now. Lucky I found this out earlier, otherwise, I would have been stuck with phone-numberless contacts inside my iPhone!

On regards of my roster, I've called the rostering department, and I'll get my answer in 30 minutes. They are currently swamped with uploading the roster up into the system for staff access, so I'd give them a break right now. Fingers cross so that I get Auckland next month!

String, looking forward to hear good news from you
