QUOTE(torped91 @ Jan 7 2009, 02:01 PM) Its on the site, not sure if still can buy online. The optus shops dont do it anymore, sales dude told me that the pre-paid thing ended after xmas. But i see there are ppl on Ebay Australia selling this Optus iphone packages. My sis-in-law checked last weekend (after xmas), yes they still have the prepaid deal.

hello all! I am not sure whether I suppose to post the question to this thread. Anyway, just wanted to give it a shot. Yesterday I went to a phone shop at PJ. The sales lady told me that all Iphone 3G will not function for maxis / Digi / Celcom, so no point buying an Iphone 3G phone. Is this true? Instead she recommends me to buy the Iphone 2G.

There's no problem using the 3G iPhone with our local telcos. As long as you purchase the units that's recommended on the first post of this thread. |

Works completely fine for me. Picked up a fully unlocked 3g from a Czech Vodafone shop, as well as a bottle of absinthe too. It was about 15,000 Czech Koruna, which is about RM2,700, but there's a instant cash VAT back at the airport of about 1,700 Koruna which makes the phone about RM2,400. No issues with the phone at all here. |

i am wondering if anyone can help me. i will be in australia for a week in feb, and i heard that it will take up to 10 days for the telco to send the unlock code. I am wondering if i will still be able to receive the code, and hence unlock the phone if i am out of australia.
I know there is the yellowsnow thing out, but i prefer to have the telco unlock it for me. Thanks in advance.

i am planning to get the prepaid one from Optus and another one by signing up for a plan as my sister is going to be studying there. For the one on prepaid, i think they are going to contact me using the prepaid number isnt it? I have to sort this one out before i go over, as if it takes up to 10 days, i might ask someone to get it for me first.
