anyone has any idea on the additional promotions not shown online (beside the 30brownies off for accessories) for the launch event? I heard over the Singtel Iphone operator on telephone line that those who pre-ordered will receive addition discount for certain plans but ain’t too sure about it.

Singtel Set is fully unlocked, the only way to get it is to sign a line with Singtel or get it at a mobile phone shop like http://www.mobilesquare.com.sg/ once it is released. I thought iPhone 3GS will be in Msia next week?

I can confirm that the penalty is SGD$300 (I communicated with Singtel) if you get the phone in August 2008. Do note the word IN and not AFTER. If you go to the Singtel Shop https://www.singtelshop.com/iPhone3GS/ and when you check out, you see the CI Charge is SGD$600 instead of SGD$300, call 1626, it should reflect SGD$300 as you bought your iPhone 3G in August 2008.

Do note that the promotion of SGD$300 is applicable only on the 10th, 11th and 12th of July 2009. If you get it on the 13th, it is back to SGD$600. You can walk-in to buy the iPhone 3GS if you want, there will be 2 separate queue

I got my iPhone 3G on the first day it was available in Singapore in August.

But I can’t the information about the 50% off for early adopters of the 3G who wants to upgrade to the 3G S! Where is this information from?…

By the way, to reserve a unit, i will need to put a $50 deposit in the Sintel Online Shop. If this is true, i will be getting the 3G S, But if the information is not correct, I am screwed and have to pay the full $600 penalty?

Can anyone verify the credibility of the 50% off penalty for early adopter info???

Zec: That is not possible. You can get it from Mobile Phone shops instead like Mobile Square – http://www.mobilesquare.com.sg/ when the iPhone 3GS is launched.

I guess this is how Singtel treats its loyal customers. I don’t understand why we are considered breaking a contract when what we only want is to upgrade to an improved handset. I have always been with Singtel since the pager era and now I really feel betrayed. Is Singtel really a cheapskate? Is the monthly subscription really not enough when I hardly use 100MB of data per month? From what I know, even a dog doesn’t bite the hands that feed it.

I would say about 100 mb per month? I got my iPhone 3G last year with BBOM1000, and till now, I only used up 1.5GB in total. I check Facebook, Twitter, surf Internet, IM.

Hi guys,
may I just ask around what is the usual monthly data an average user (check email, a little bit of surfing of internet) will use? Putting in mind that one will use wireless@sg if the network is within range.

Sorry but you can’t buy it at a discounted rate.
