QUOTE(stringfellow @ Mar 13 2009, 04:37 PM) If this March 17th/18th announcement by Apple confirms the existence of a new iPhone this coming July, a lot of people, namely the ones already booking the Maxis iPhone are going to be royally pissed. Unless Maxis does a one-to-one exchange from the current-gen iPhone to the next-gen iPhone when it arrives. Personally, I dont put too much stock on that happening. Does this has something to do with why the booking period for iPhone 3G by Maxis ends on 17th March (11.59pm)?  QUOTE(arshad @ Mar 13 2009, 07:22 PM) If I book now, can I get the iphone after the launch? By referring to the Terms and Conditions on the iPhone 3G Maxis webpage, under term number 7, it stated "Each customer with a Confirmation ID must collect their iPhone 3G at the selected location during booking. Their iPhone 3G is available for collection only at the location of their choice during booking and will be held at respective location till 26th March 2009." Hope this might help.

QUOTE(vui_msia @ Mar 13 2009, 09:22 PM) I have checked the website b4 i post this. The plan available for port-in are value 50, value 80, value 150 ... there is no ivalue, cuz ivalue is for iphone only... Yes there is no way you can directly subscribe to iValue plan right now as it will only be rolled out starting from the day on the official launch of the iPhone 3G by Maxis. In the mean time, for your alternative you may select either one of Value Plus packages offer by Maxis. Once you have subscribe to any Value Plus, only then you may be able to perform online booking for your desire iPhone 3G package and select either to opt for new iValue package or you may remain with your Value Plus (if you choose the 6 months contract. However, kindly noted this does not apply for Value Plus 50). Like for my case, I was once a Hotlink user. Then when I went to Maxis Centre @ KLCC last Wednesday, the CS told me that I need to migrated to Maxis postpaid user first before I may proceed with my iPhone online booking. As for temporary period (until the official launch of iPhone cum 20th March), I am currently subscribing Value Plus 50 and later decided to change to iValue 1. Hope this might help.

QUOTE(stringfellow @ Mar 14 2009, 01:38 PM) There are two, I believe, because each and every localised Apple regional website are maintained separately by the differing countries. Apple.com is the one maintained by Apple themselves, our Malaysian webpage is maintained by Apple Malaysia, and since Apple Malaysia knows about the local iPhone launch more intimately than Apple HQ, it has not been updated. The news about our local launch picked up by Macworld and iLounge are mainly feeds submitted by readers who knew about the launch locally. Apple HQ either still dont know about this, or will update it later. Or, the worse case scenario, Maxis's position as an appointed telco isnt recognized at all, and they are banking on Singapore for their units, hence launch still under the name of Singtel/Singapore as "official available now". Makes you think why "Malaysia" wasn't on the "Coming Soon" list before too either isn't it? QUOTE(frozzbyte @ Mar 14 2009, 02:06 PM) Mmmm ... makes me think that Apple Malaysia is going against the mother ship? If Maxis isn't recognized then the deal was between Singtel/Singapore and Apple Asia instead of the big ol' infinite loop? Sounds fishy. Yeah. In fact, if we click on maxis logo in Where to Buy page, we will be redirected to SingTel Customer Service - Locate Us official webpage. This post has been edited by camaro: Mar 14 2009, 02:40 PM
