Hey if the phone works for us, it works..haha But seriously to even consider an upgrade I definitely need more than this to justify my purchase..Plus we can just use vlingo for voice control haha(its free!)

USD 10 bucks is nth.

was a proud owner of an ipod touch before my 3g until it was 'cacated' by the OS2.0 launch price haha (still found the OS for free online-some sites were inflamed by Apple's move so they started offering them for free..so i suggest touch owners be a little patient)
Added on June 9, 2009, 11:20 ami just hope important apps (like skyscape) don't crash with the release of OS 3.0..Now THAT would suck

Now it's time to purchase coz a lot of ppl will be selling their iPhone in mobile section soon

I thought the outlook will be different from the current iPhone 3G.A bit disappointed when I saw it almost the same like iPhone 3G.Nothing remarkable to let you know which one is iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS..

Haha, except it's thicker for the 32Gb one. The voice control function is indeed good. Hopefully they'll make it to support iPhone 3G as well.

This information is absolutely useful.. This is fake information given by Maxis. Trade in for RM1050. It's time to buy a new Iphone then.

It's not fake, Maxis merely mentioned that you can get up to RM 1050 rebate depending on the iValue, idata etc plan you subscribe. Do not judge before you find out more infos.
