ok firstly,
its good that maxis brought in the iphone 3g.
finally right.
and it includes a data plan for rm100/month. that aint too bad but the addition charge needed to purchase the phone is kinda expensive.around rm2500. i think it is possible to get a 16gb one around lyn and still keep your prepaid line.haha.

but secondly, if you opt to use iphone, you gotta have a service provider that has cheap data plan. i dont knw if anyone else is experiencing this or is it just me but my iphone downloads updates from the net almost automatically and at a very high rate! it uses edge/gprs/3g, almost anything it can find. and till now, it cost me a bomb. im not kidding! i went to the maxis centre the other day to have the edge/gprs/3g line disconnected but guess what, it still downloads!
maxis is currently charging 1kb=rm0.01. my current tally is 50+mb so yeah.you can count and see how much im actually paying for this.
if anyone else has experienced this problem too and knows a way to solve this, do pm me.thanks.

but all in all, iphone is finally here. definitely a reason to cheer abt regardless of the price.
peace.
