Biting Nails for i-phone!
17
May
Ok, if you followed my Facebook, I bet you know that I’ve put a bet with Alex that if DAP wins, he’ll get me an i-phone. Seriously, the chances for DAP to win is really 50/50. Its not that I’ve no confidence with them over this Sibu bi-election, its just the opposition ( i mean BN) always ended up with so much dirty tricks.
Halleluyah, Rocket flies, Sibu Kampua taste even better now with the DAP. Of course, the main deal is , I got an i-phone.
wink wink!
I need to do a proper research before I really commit to any installment plans for 24months. His money = My money. Its not that the digi or the maxis going to give me for FREE. So I better think 50x before I really say YES to i-phone.

Make it short. I’ve done a few comparison for I-phone 3gs 16gb. Installment & contract for 24 months. Voice + Data plan.
- From iDigi- i88 = RM 159 per month.

- From Maxis, ivalue 1: its gonna be RM158 per month.

From what we see here, its quite affordable. But when you think of the contracts for 24 months.. its gonna be a nitemare for me. And from what I research, even after the contract finish, I still have to pay for the phone. By the time I finish paying the phone, the i-phone already become ipon!
Then what you want le? So mafan?
That’s why I’m biting nails lo, I don’t want to port to Maxis or Digi. Its not the matter want or not, its the matter good or not la.
Then should I buy AP sets , which they offer for RM2400 (as at 17May2010). This deal sounds better, but hor, AP sets, would it cost me 2 days go clinic, 3 days go hospital? Still thinking…
And last, a good friend of mine, says, “Digi got people selling out set only for RM22xx“. That sounds lagi interesting!Really ma? How true is that? I don’t think there will be someone to sell out at such low price.
At last.
I’ve finish biting nails, I made a decision. NOT to BUY.
Reasons:
- I have my Blackberry , serving me well, and doesnt cost me a cent.
- Phone bills are subsidies by company.
- I can’t really rely on touch screen when I need to do so much emailing everyday.
- It was just the devil call, ignore it. Lifes goes on without I-phone!
- Iphone 4g is coming sometime in July, why not just wait and 3gs will have better deal?
The end of the story, although I wanted to have an iphone, but thats just a certain temptation after seeing most of the people are carrying one. So cut of all the temptation, save money, go travel, pay housing loan, car loan, that will be more practical eh?
