just went.....

sorry to impose, but free feel to reject my request. no problem at all.


considering that you will be rushing to the s'porean iphone launch, is there any chance that i could ring you up for confirmation that it'll work on a malaysian sim card? slim chance that it will be unlocked, but nothing wrong to be hopeful


thanks louismhc

nokia, why it would be slim chance to be unlock ? Any reason?

@baretta


telco providers will usually try to push for contracts.


but for your sake and mine, i do hope that the so called slim chance will be fatter

I dunno how many singaporean using singtel and how many of them using plan. You also know that their law will not allow telco to sim lock like a few other countries. Don't forget their market just not Singapore, but also Thailand, malaysia and Indonesia.

fingers crossed then!

but this arn't a good thing for consumer who planning to go vacation , study overseas , work and then the sim is unuseable by that phone . This can cost lot of problem tough .

Can u give more detail?

@friends
Old already but still power sial
Hahaha....

@LeonTan
Main sabun ar?!

@nokia2003
Sure...once i get the phone will update here, coz i'm Malaysian too.
Need to use Malaysia's sim card

Guys....if the phone is lock, i will quite this deal. I'm rather get a ticket and when to NZ to get it. Getting a plan for me in Singapore is just a stupid ideal, coz my company provide me a cell phone too. Let's said if i get this phone with singtel's plan, i will be keeping the stupid sim card on pocket and put in maxis on it
For me to get "singtel's plan" is just to make me easier and get "Aifontriji" only

Nokia, we all know that singtel own 100% aust optus, right. So, why not they just follow the same concept like optus? FYI, singtel also have a share in Bharti India and Globe philippine. Both telco also will launch iphone on 22nd august.

@baretta
Pray for singtel....hope singtel is not selling for high price

generally from the MNP review recently this week...Singtel having the larger sub base in singapore with prepaid and postpaid...

i would say this iPhone going to launch next friday will be contract base. On top of tat u have to pay at least S$500+ with 2 yrs contract...
(for my own reviews no source )

why would i say that....coz Singtel can get mass products from Apple where they can meet the quota with Apple to promised them they can sell that certain amount. But for Starhub and M1...they cant promise Apple they can sell tat amount compare to Singtel.

If u in Singapore, remember when the first launch HTC Diamond? Singtel giving best offer whereas other telco's price tag above S$200 extra compare to Singtel.

if u sign plan it should be cheapier, but since just planned to buy the phone only, i think it will be much more exp

haha every telco giving out cheap phones they loss profit ~
Nevertheless, with contract base phone will be slightly cheaper than outright but still u have to fork out extra money to get the phone on top of that..every month u got to pay at least S$24 for the line hehe

S'pore telco is smart hehe
I also hope tat Singtel giving 2 days HOT SALE for 500 first comers for S$0 3g iPhone hehe

do you think they will do so ? I doubt it very much....

I dont think that there is a min quota for telco to achive. Beside that, you must remember about their law regarding sim lock.
