While most of you still waiting for the iPhone 4 to be launched by Digi or Maxis this Thursday, 23rd September 2010, I already got my iPhone 4! Don’t be jealous k coz this is my bro’s Singapore iPhone 4 set not mine… Singapore iPhone 4 16GB only SGD888 / 32GB SGD1,048 without contract.
Waiting part and guessing game is a paint. Finally Maxis is out with the iPhone plan and rates and able to pre-register but now still pending for Digi. Not to worry as it will be out in just a couple of hours and the iPhone 4 will be yours.
Anyway I will be going to the Maxis iPhone 4 launch at The Gardens Hotel, Midvalley tomorrow to check out the iPhone 4 and maybe grab one for myself since Digi is yet to show the details yet. =)
See iPhone 4 is so thin and sleek design. I’m loving it!
Is the antenna issue solve? Will we be given a free iPhone 4 Bumpers?
iPhone 4 vs BlackBerry!
My BlackBerry Curve 8520 is smaller than iPhone 4 a little but I prefer iPhone 4 because the screen size is bigger and in HD! My BlackBerry Curve 8520 cannot fight with this iPhone 4 and I love the iPhone 4 camera with focus which my BlackBerry can’t do it. I need a better camera phone so that I could just snap some food photo or some events photo in a better quality way.
See I can surf in bigger screen and facebook in a bigger touch screen too!
All new Apple iPhone 4 is now in Malaysia, no need to get Singapore iPhone anymore. Digi already announced that iPhone4 will be available next week and Maxis also set to release next week. Woots! Will Digi and Maxis launch the iPhone4 together?
I received this email yesterday from Digi!
Because you signed up to be the first to know, we’re now letting you know how you can be the first in line to own the new iPhone 4.
So, brace yourself – the iPhone 4 is finally on our shores and coming to you next week.
For more information on iPhone 4 plans and where to purchase, visit digi.com.my/iphone4 and everything will be revealed to you.
Are you excited about the all new iPhone 4? Will you be getting one for yourself? I’m still thinking whether to get 1 for myself or not.
Yes, finally Maxis and Digi website is up with the iPhone 4 registration or interest page now. Both telco are now fighting to promote and push for iPhone 4 now and getting their users to submit their email for the latest updates of the iPhone 4 availability. There’s no pricing of the iPhone 4 and the new data rate plan but I believe they will come up with more idea how to compete between this two telco.
The registration of interest does not treat as iPhone 4 per-order. You may also wait and see which telco could provide the best rate and best iPhone 4 package but I recon it will not be much different. Maxis registration page required much information compared to Digi page and Digi is using GoogleDoc to collect data, they are really smart and cost saving. =)
Despite of iPhone 4 antenna issue and screen issue I believe there’s still a lot of iPhone fans out there who’s dying for this. Will you be getting a free iPhone 4 bumper / case to solved the iPhone 4 antenna problem as well? =p
I’ve actually registered myself to both Maxis and Digi so that I could get the 1st hand information and details (e.g. when is the iPhone 4 available to Malaysia and the pricing of the iPhone 4 package) from both the telco.
Digi will be the 2nd Telco to bring in Apple iPhone 3Gs, when will be Celcom turn? I have already leave my email address to Digi so that I will receive the 1st hand info when they have any updates on the iPhone 3Gs price or offer packages!
Leave your email now for the updates too or just visit saimatkong often then you will get the updates of the iPhone 3Gs deal! http://www.digi.com.my/iphone/.

Not sure whether Digi will bring in the latest iPhone 4G in June maybe? It’s a good competition with Maxis so we the consumers will be benefited from the better offers or services. No more exclusive to Maxis!
DiGi entry in mid-year may spark iPhone price war
By B.K. SIDHU
PETALING JAYA: The iPhone will be sold by DiGi.Com Bhd before mid-year and this could spark a price war on services and packages in the smartphone market.
The entry of DiGi in the iPhone space will also end Maxis Communications Bhd’s nearly one-year monopoly in the segment.
DiGi said yesterday it had reached an agreement with Apple Inc to distribute iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS in Malaysia but the celco did not disclose when the packages for the iPhone will be launched.
DiGi said on its website that those already with an iPhone could switch to any of DiGi’s existing Postpaid/Prepaid rate plans.
That leaves Celcom Axiata Bhd, one of the three “big boys” in the local cellular industry, out of the iPhone race for now.
“We are open to the idea of selling iPhones,’’ Celcom Axiata chief executive officer Datuk Seri Shazalli Ramly said yesterday. He said talks with Apple first began two years ago and the talks were still under way.
He did not give any indication on which way the talks would go but did admit that it was “not easy to sell the iPhones as we need to get a support system in place before we can do that. That is why we chose to focus on selling the Blackberry.’’
DiGi is excited about the deal with Apple as it expects the “three-year agreement will help DiGi increase sales more than 5% this year, higher than the industry average,’’ its chief executive officer Johan Dennelind told Bloomberg TV yesterday.
It recorded sales of 2% last year, slowing from 10% in 2008.
“The iPhone is fashionable and trendy. There is a large enough market out there still looking for reasonably priced packages to buy the phone. The determining factor, however, would be pricing,’’ according to a market source.
Maybank Investment Bank senior analyst Khair Mirza reckons that pricing of the device is fixed by Apple but DiGi’s ability to tap into the market will depend a lot on its positioning, “hype” and data plans.
Analyst do not expect DiGi to see a huge impact on its bottomline in the near term.
As for Maxis, the entry of DiGi appears to be a dampener as they now have to compete with DiGi, but the impact on earnings will be small, according to analysts.
Maxis declined to comment on queries from StarBiz on its iPhone sales and DiGi’s entry.
But market research company IDC claims that the celco last year sold 91,000 units since the launch in March 2009 and the shipments included both the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS. The iPhone is sold in 85 countries and has about 25,000 applications that can be downloaded.
A recent report released by Gartner said Apple iPhone’s sales had doubled in 2009 , with 24.9 million units sold in 2009 against 11.4 million units in 2008.
Woo hoo… Finally collected the prizes won from the DIGI Internet Pimp My Day Challenge. Thanks to my Pimpky team mate, Joshua, who collected it for me all the way from Nuffnang Office in the morning and at night we went Tony Roma’s Sunway Pyramid to makan makan celebrate cum get the prizes.
It was a nice catch up with all the team mate who battled thru the whole day @ DIGI Internet Pimp My Day Challenge, it’s worth our effort! We talk… We eat… We laugh… We…
A complimentary breads with “herbs” butter. “Must eat while hot so that the herbs butter melts” : this was told by the waiter. His name is “Raja” guess from Bangla, he’s a nice and funny guy… but his slang really made us pengsan… haha.
Pueh Tian’s Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
Joshua’s Ribeye. He claimed that TGIF is better than this… =p
Emeryn & Me ordered this 1/2 Chicken thingy… the portion is very huge sumore we swap the coleslaw and fries with Baked potato and rice… It’s freaking filling and full leh.
This pack of thing is freaking heavy ok and sorry to trouble Tallboyz to carry all the way to Pyramid =)
Digi just pimped up our day with fun filled exciting, exhausting, brain twisting, nerve wrecking activities. They even mentioned that we are UNLIKELY to finish all challenges in time huh? Yes! Team Pimpky did it! We have completed all the tasks assigned, woo hoo! Super excited and exhausted! I sudah tak da energy la! Half dead. But the Male Emcee of the day really awesome, he has so much energy and quite an entertainer! (but most of the time like syiok sendiri more. haha, but seriously good job!)
We are team number 4! Although in Chinese it’s not good la… “sei sei seng” sound not good but indeed we won ourselves something… read on to know more!
But never mind see we prepared ourselves for all the challenge and tasks to be completed.
1st we get registered and get a Digi Modem and that’s the only source that we could depends on for the entire day to do the uploading of videos, photo tagging to facebook and update the blog. Then there’s a briefing given to all of us before the Pimp My Day Challenge start, and each group was given a piece of tasks list with hints / clues of places that we need to go and look for the Digi crews then we need to accomplish the tasks.
Actually I was pretty comfortable as this challenge is based in 1Utama and I’m one of the frequent shopper since the 1st day of 1Utama open for business and I go there almost once a week, so do you think it will be a challenge for us? Haha… No! Not at all! =p
1st Challenge – It’s A Hit! Batting Cages. It’s a home run!
Of all the challenges, we went for some balls hitting challenge because we thought not much ppl will get there and we want to be the 1st there? Haha. But, there’s always a butt, this place took us run around the whole mall because I was mistaken to use another lift and end up when we reach the batting cage there was few teams ahead of us.
Each of the team member needs to hit off as many balls as we can out of 15 balls. I hit the edge of the yellow Digi board hung at the end of the cage but too bad it was not counted if not I could win myself some gift / prize?? Anyway it was a good experience hitting a ball after so many years which I last played was in secondary school.
2nd Challenge – One o’clock, Tqo o’clock, Three o’clock…ROCK!
Our next challenge is exploring music with Free music download from DiGi Music Portal Services. There it took us sometime to figure out how to create a playlist and add two required songs (Akon and Lady Gaga’s) to the playlist. Maybe we should explore more on the portal.
3rd Challenge– Lights, Camera, Action!
We were given 30secs to produce a short commercial ads for Swatch and Digi Broadband. So all of us suddenly become director and we came out with a simple storyline and started to record it without any rehearsal and preparation. Do it right!~
Haha it’s a funny ads I would say but too bad didn’t win anything out of it. Watch it yourself, see we just use cheapo camera and tripod only, if it’s good maybe you would consider hiring us to be the talent of your next ads, perhaps?
4th Challenge – So you think you can dance?
Haha seriously we couldn’t dance and all we did were… can’t find a word to describe, watch the video and you will find out. Haha. Must check out coz it’s a pole dancing and yes we dance and climb up the pole! =p
5th Challenge – Now The Net Lives On Your Phone!
We get to watch a short clips streamed thru youtube using Nokia N97 connected to Digi Turbo 3G. We were almost squeezing all the juices out of our brains trying to figure out the answer for the riddle for this task at Rainforest. The question itself is brain teasing enough, it’s all numbers!
All the hints, photos clues is actually showed at the streaming video from Youtube. I was telling my team mate just hentam, “Broadband Done Right”, but true enough that’s the answer but we take too long as we discussing there and was trying to break the code. lol.
6th Challenge – Bull Eye
haha… See it’s damn easy challenge as I close my eye also can aim and nearly got the highest score, 700!
Check out the video on how Emeryn learn to blow! Haha. Good blow job! At least contributed some points there. =p
7th Challenge – Likely Average Speed
The earlier activities have left us tired and exhausted as we run from old wing to new wing and Ground Floor to 5th Floor and back to Lower Ground. Phew. Each of us had to run 800 meters, yes luckily only 800 meters, and the average speed will be counted.
As I’m the unhealthiest blogger, I almost fainted after completed this challenge, but luckily there’s a last one to complete before we could get back to Mardi Grass for the final uploding and blogging.
Look at our face… all like half dead la…
Final Challenge – Super Model You
The final challenge was we need to pose and shoot for QuicksSlver printed ads. We just need to pick any of the clothes available and pose and shoot and upload to facebook. The photo submission is judged based on creativity. We won!!! Look, am I sexy here? Haha. This creative photo got us RM300 QuikSilver/Roxy vouchers. Thank you!
After completed all the challenges we headed back to MardiGras. Phew! We manage to finished all on time. It was 5.50pm before 6pm!
Once we reached to MardiGras we are required to blogpost whatever we’ve done and upload all the videos that needed and submit it in an hour. We all struggled to do everything we could but it was announced later that the submission time was postponed to Sunday midnight. There was a congestion problem as most of us couldn’t upload the videos and update the blogpost due to the huge crowd.
Each challenge has a winner for it and we are lucky to be the winner of Super Model! Nice kan? Haha. The grand winner, runner up and 1st runner up yet to be announced! Will it be Team Pimpky? Please support us! =p
Check out our Team Pimpky Challenge Video which will sure leave some memory to us and Digi War Cry which did not get us any prize =(
DiGi Pimp My Day Challenge, an on ground challenge where the winners will win 4 personalized laptops, external hard drives, routers, modems, headphones, thumb drives and many more!
The DiGi Pimp My Day Challenge require us to work in teams of 4 where we’ll be given clues and tasks to complete inside a shopping complex. The tasks will require us to search for information on ground and online at the same time.
Yeah, I finally own a Sony PSP but it’s PSP-3006 which can’t be modded or crack using the custom firmware, therefore I can’t download and play again. Is like can see but cannot eat. Haha… Got the PSP with mini kit, which consist of 1 Crystal Case, 1 Screen Guard, 1 Earphone, 1 USB Cable and 1 Cleaning Cloth. Too bad it doesn’t come with Memory Stick and UMD too. =(
