Is Maxis Bringing iPhone 3G to Malaysia?

iphone malaysia imageThis is breaking news and it’s been openly announced on the Internet. Just a few minutes ago, one of my commenters shared a source with me. Apparently, Maxis Malaysia is bringing in the iPhone 3G to Malaysia.

Whether or not its true all we have from here on is skepticism and blank bullets to fire off. However, I’ve checked the source and they seem to be a reputable place of information. They openly said:

Its understood that Maxis will offer the iPhone 3G in Malaysia at a competitive price below RM1,000.

Source: The Malaysian Insider

I’m rather stunned by this. I know rumours were Maxis was planning on bringing the iPhone to Malaysia but I’m quite shocked its true. Don’t know why.

What do you guys think about Maxis bringing the iPhone 3G to Malaysia?

      Hi there again!!

      I am sure you know that Apple has released iTunes version 7.7, and with that, it offers iPhone users the upgrade to version 2.0.

      I have a jailbroken/unlocked iPhone (what’s the difference?! I’m getting confused with the stuff I read on the net) running on 1.1.4, so should I assume that I should NOT upgrade my iPhone to version 2.0 and risk my iPhone being bricked?

      Or is it already safe to upgrade?

      Thank you!

      Cool. Though Timothy told me lots of problems with the stability of the new iPhone at the moment. Eek!

      flisterz:
      Timothy told me it was old news when I told him. LOL!

      Though it’s only happy times for a second, we’re still missing purchase of videos and music. :( I’d purchase from iTunes store rather than any other kiosk we have available now.

      Well, better to set lower expectation and delivering a higher one eh. ;)

      iptouch:
      I’m still skeptical so I’m putting my hopes up too high.

      flisterz:
      Now, that’s a very good question. And I bl*rdy want an Apple Store to open here. Damnit!

      Bryan:
      If you get it overseas, there’s the unlocking issue according to many. As for the authenticity of this news, I’m still not sold. So like others who’ve waited for an iPhone, if you really want it then might as well get it. :)

      If Maxis brings in iphone to Malaysia, being a Digi subscriber I would love get one without contract (maybe pay higher RM) and use it on Digi.

      Question is WHEN this Maxis will be officialy announcing this? I am planning to get iphone 3g unlock from other countries now, if Maxis is serious about that then i would hold off my purchase…

      Hopefully, yes!

      but how we are going to use the App Store? How about in-store activation?

    9. Response #9 by iptouch on July 11th, 2008

    10. Response #10 by nicktay on July 11th, 2008
