Since I’m still too lazy to do a write-up on the Singtel iPhone launch, I’ll just link all of you to GadgetDotRed’s coverage for now.

Posted August 26th, 2008 by Ryu at 12:26 am in iPhone.The Dangers of getting an iPhone without a data plan/pack
Posted August 25th, 2008 by Ryu at 11:52 pm in iPhone.So Singtel finally released the iPhone. While they are touting their iFlexi plans, they also had the courtesy to make the iPhone available to new and existing customers with voice-only plans, such as the iOne, iTwo and iThree plans (which I got) and the classic plans. Singtel also kindly “suggested” that customers who opted for [...]
iOne Plus + BBoM 1000 plan possible
Posted August 22nd, 2008 by Ryu at 2:40 pm in Uncategorized and iPhone.Which is probably easily the best plan for most people out there.
This basically refutes my original argument about them restricting BBoM for iPhone to the ridiculously low data BBoM Plus. The best data plans will a combination of a iOne/iTwo/iThree plan with a BBoM 1000, since it has been proven that the average speeds attainable [...]
Anyone interested to go Comcenter tonight to boo the event?
Posted August 21st, 2008 by Ryu at 12:04 pm in iPhone.Anyone? Sound out here if interested.
Childish, but at least it allows us to vent our frustrations a bit.
Buying an Apple product shouldn’t be this stressful/saddening.
I will not be getting the iPhone from $ingtel.
Edit: Eventually I did get the iPhone from $ingtel, since it was possible to get the standard BBoM 1000 plan for the iPhone, and my brother was basically pestering me for my Aluminum iPhone.
Singtel’s message to Singapore “Give us your money you freaking idiots”
Posted August 19th, 2008 by Ryu at 11:41 pm in iPhone.What the hell is wrong with Singtel?
In its FAQ page for the iPhone, they stated that one can buy the iPhone by signing up for a normal voice plan. For data, they referred to the standard Broadband on Mobile (BBoM) plans page. These plans have a cap of 50 GB.
However, in another page, [...]
As expected, Singtel made official their iPhone plans tonight.
You can check out the plans here but they are not too different from what was originally leaked this afternoon.
I am going for the iOne plan and will be paying $850 singapore dollars for an originally advertised as USD$299 phone.
Then again, if you consider the fact [...]
Boycott iPhone this friday! *Edited* (Oh Whatever! iOne plan with iPhone is decent. iFlexi plans are crap.

This is a call out to all potential iPhone buyers this friday. We should be boycott these nonsensical plans and prices!
If Singtel doesn’t have enough buyers this friday, their launch will be marred.
We should let Singtel know that Singaporeans are not just a bunch of “carrot heads”.
P.S. Speaking after the initial anger, this [...]
Judging from the response on twitter after the news of the Singtel iPhone plans broke, we only have one thing to say.
FUCK U SINGTEL.
No wonder they don’t want to release the prices yet. They are afraid of a Rogers-like backlash here.
