Those who pre-register for an iPhone from DiGi earlier should be receiving an email from DiGi soon.

The collection should be starting this coming weekend and also depending on the pick-up point selected in the registration.

There will be special payment plans will be available for Maybank, CIMB Bank, HSBC, Citibank and Ambank credit card holders.

If purchase is made by cash outright, the iPhone prices as follows:

• iPhone 3G 8G RM1990
• iPhone 3GS 16GB RM2490
• iPhone 3GS 32GB RM2990

Outright purchase price is similar to Maxis however what we’re anticipated is the iPhone + postpaid bundle plans which is expected to be announced tomorrow.

DiGi has started pre-ordering of the iPhone 3G. Options available are iPhone 3G with 8GB and iPhone 3GS with 16GB and 32GB capacities.

Pick-up locations are currently limited to Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Kota Kinabalu only. Actual pricing and plans are not available yet. It is also good to know that this pre-ordering is also open to non-DiGi customers however one would require to sign up for one upon collection.

We believe DiGi is trying to find out how many people are willing to prebook by asking more details from protential customers. Let’s hope that DiGi will be able to release iPhone stock in a shorter timeframe compared to Maxis.
