According to one of the Administrators of MacTalk forums, resellers have been provided with info regarding the iPhone by Apple Australia. And… The good news is, it’s not gonna be locked to one carrier! The iPhone is also going to be released in Australia last week of June.
So what does all this mean? If the 3G iPhone is going to be announced in WWDC 2008, which is going to be in the first week of June, it means Australia is getting 3G iPhone for sure. Also, with no carrier lock, it could mean that 3G plans will get more competitive pricing.
Personally, I can’t wait for iPhone in Australia. Porn Web and Email on the go can prove to be useful at times.
Does this also mean that other countries will have factory unlocked iPhones when 3G version rolls out? What do you think?
At Gizmodo, there’s this Youtube post about this famous Sg blogger (Xiaxue) reviewing both the fake and real iPhone. She was initially tricked into thinking that the fake iPhone was actually real. What the f**k? How stupid can you get. The fake iPhone had a dodgy start-up music and it looked like a brick that can kill your neighbour’s dog.
Anyway, I actually thought the video was hilarious. I laughed a few times throughout the video. She actually had trouble using the on-screen keyboard, saying that iPhone sucks because she couldn’t use it with her long nails. I had the impression that she’s either too dumb to use her thumbs or she’s just trying to find every possible way to shit the Apple products (she stated that she hate Mac users).
Towards the end of the video, she concludes that the fake iPhone is “not bad for a shitass China phone” and the real iPhone is just “mediocre”.
