Please read the first post and read Commonly Asked Questions on Maxis iPhone 3G. Thank you

Sorry David, I've been MIA from LY forum for moons already until yesterday. Planning to get the 3GS but didn't want to switch to Maxis, hence I need a confirmation that Iphone bought from Maxis could be used on other telcos w/o the need to software unlock as mine current 2G is kinda unstable when software unlocked.

What's the normal procedure for activation, izzit to activate it with a maxis sim card and then could use with other telco sims?

Thanks.

Thanks Tink, couldn't believe Maxis would allow it... given their known reputation... Now just can't wait for them to launch the 3GS.... hmmm wonder how much would Singtel offers then.... sweat.gif

Just pop in any simcard and it will work. Even did  jailbreak a Maxis iPhone 3G unit and works the same may it be DIGI, Celcom, Umobile simcard. As long as it is offcially unlock, you're good to go. Same thing even if you travel overseas.

Danker...

@jonest,
Your guess is as good as mine.  If you're really interested in getting an iPhone 3GS, look up stringfellow; he's got 1 space for 1 more unit; coming in from Rome @ EUR 715 (32GB iPhone 3G S)
*
Saw his posts, but EUR715 @ RM3521.70!! I'll pass it... All we could hope that Maxis or Singtel or even Apple HongKong won't be that scrupulous (I meant Apple Italy)!!! sweat.gif

Pray Hard! notworthy.gif

@jonest,
It's uhm.. 32GB ! tongue.gif  But Yeah I'll give it a pass too.  If it was 715 in local currency I would have jumped on the bandwagon biggrin.gif

If it's RM715, I'll place the order for at least 5 units, so every1 in the office would be using Iphone!!! yipppeeeeee .... it could only happens in a couple of years, when they launched the 5th or 6th gen Iphone, then the 3GS would become obsolete model....

Yipppeeeeee, registered my interest on the web, have you?


Added on July 9, 2009, 3:46 pmFor all we know, they gonna announce the pricing on 15th July 2009 (according to the FAQ) and launch date on 17th July??? (I wish)... heeeee. Anyway, to those who are interested in the Maxis iPhone 3GS better register first then decides late once the price plan is out on 15th. Then we can know which set is cheaper, OZ, NZ, Spore or M'sia?

Yes I'd been asking people to stop discussing Maxis on other threads tongue.gif  Also know teikwing's going to be opening and new thread hence didn't start one [besides, I don't want to be updating the price information like what nokia2003 did!] hehehe

Anyway, HOPES Maxis will launch it 8G - RM2K+ 16GB - RM2.5K+ 32GB - RM3K+....... just pray.....

And to those who are planning to profit from OZ or Spore set, a piece of advise, don't be 2 greedy and bring back 2 many sets that u can't handle. Sekali Maxis sells it at OK price (with Maxis I wouldn't use the word "CHEAP"!) then ur stuck wif extra set and gotta sell at loss to recover. Just be careful, GREED kills!!!

@jonest,
Yeah.. last I checked, Machines point redemption is quite worth it.  I've like 400k+ points in my account but I don't really need a Mac right now - also, mine's under MR (for Amex) so might be different conversion.  Need to check it out .

400K points!!!!! OMG....... shopaholic huh??? brows.gif tot mine was great.... can't beat the giants thou....

@viosowner,
It's not like U can blame them; if they have stocks left they will still need to clear it.  Consumers just have to be wiser that's all biggrin.gif

Tot they cleared stocks??? what to do? selling price so high so not many contemplating to get from them. Hope they learnt a lesson well...

@manchurr,
I'm with Maxis post paid + data unlimited package @ RM99.
Well, come to think of it, it's kinda worth it at RM99! I'm wif DiGi with unlimited Edge at RM66/mth. But u got 3G!!! Faster alot....
