No Tumpangs until I settle the last 5 and until the mods here clarify the definition of Tumpang (as a non Sale/Trade thread).

Looks like it is game over, folks.

Just received my roster online. ZERO Auckland next month. Got Osaka, Mumbai, Shanghai, Frankfurt and another Tokyo.

To those who I still hold your money, please come back with me with what you want me to do with it. This is so depressing! cry.gif

I dont know if there is anything I can do with that Mumbai flight, arrival in Mumbai on Saturday night, and departure Sunday late night. If Indian iPhones are indeed unlocked and if anyone knows where I can get them, I am willing to purchase them on your behalf. Anyone?

Before we begin to think of anything, I need someone to tell me where to get them and if there are truly unlocked. I am clueless in this, I need directions and as much info I can get.

it's almost impossible to source for any info regarding the release of iphone 3g in india. it seems like those indians can't be bothered with the release at all and rather go with n96.

based from his post; http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p...757&postcount=8

i'm predicting and sensing a very high possibility depressing outcome of the release.

I think both Bharti Airtel and Vodafone India are locked. Otherwise, people would be buying one from a carrier and free to subscribe to the other carrier.

One by one, the window of opportunity closes.. sad.gif

Still waiting if Harmeet can update us with the information regarding Vodafone Essar India. If they maintain the same policy as per Vodafone NZ, there may still be hope. flex.gif

Guys, I've a question to ask, which apparently brought up after the accusation on my conduct here in this forum.

Am I an Alpha-Male to you guys?

Am I treated differently just because I'm helping you getting the iPhones, or am one of your possible ways of getting one?

I hope the answer is NO, because if I know I get special treatment and people follow me and whatever I say and do (the Alpha-Male affinity), I'll stop doing all this Tumpang and all. I repeat , I do not want any kind of treatment for doing this, other than how one person should respect and treat another person. I got branded as an Alpha-Male to you guys for no reason and I get insinuated as leading you guys into flaming NOOBs. I have enough troubles in my life as it is already, I dont need more of this.

My first post in the thread after 8 pages :

Nope. If that so, i already post something like "kipas" you in this thread.
But i always respect people doing good thing. I;m actually want to complaint regarding final list 15, and distribution of 11 iphone. But i dont want to complaint. Why ? Bcoz that such mistake is too small than what you have done to us. Tumpang thread should not to be close, if you really ikhlas. Go to hell those ******* people who are jealous with u and i will treated you as my friends not bcoz "tumpang".

I am not looking for short term friends that comes and go, I'm looking for reliable ones. The ones that stick with you through thick and thin.

People befriending me because I can get them iPhones , and only because of that, those are not type I'm looking for.

I'm just sad that someone accused me of being an Alpha-Male to guys here, and that gives the impression that people befriended me only because I'm the route to their iPhones.

Makes you realise who your real friends are.
