iHave iPhone 4

maxis iphone launch

Yes, I was one of the people who went for the much anticipated iPhone 4 when Maxis launched it at Gardens, Midvalley.

I arrived there at about 10:30 pm on Thursday 23rd September and there was already a huge queue of people waiting to be the first in Malaysia to get their grubby paws on the iPhone 4. (The video is actually a tour of the inside before the crowd shots)

The iPhone 4 is due to be released at the stroke of midnight so all the Apple fans were there in droves!

I was there early so I could go around and check out the scene. There is an area inside where the features of the iPhone 4 is displayed and explained.

ibooks

iBooks! I would so totally love this since I read a lot.

maxis cakes

Check out the Maxis cupcakes!

violinist

The Maxis iPhone 4 launch had no shortage of entertainment – I really liked this violinist who played at the lounge.

I’m revealing my age here, but I love this song! It’s Rednex’s Cotton Eye Joe. smirk

food

There were also food and drinks galore. I love this lamb kebab they had. It tasted delicious with the dip that went with it.

We were hanging out at the lounge until the press conference was slated to start.

The end (of waiting) is nigh! w00t!

The Maxis people launched the iPhone 4 right on the stroke of midnight and we went to the rooftop to catch the official launch.

I managed to get my iPhone 4 at about 2 am. I hear some people had to wait till 4 am and wore their next day office attire to get it. smirk

iPhone 4. I haz it! I got the micro SIM last weekend and the initial impressions I have of the phone is very positive. I’m lovin’ it. Full review coming up soon!

entertainment

It feels good to be the first in Malaysia to get my hands on it.

The only downside to it is that I have to beat back all my friends who want to buy it off me. πŸ™

Get it yourself la can! Go to Maxis, they have stock. I want the iPhone 4 to complete my collection of smart phones!

    Apps are fun, but not as much fun as drinking or doing the groupie thing with a beer vendor. So there you go, iphone is crap. groupie with beer vendor is GOOD.

  21. Michael (MIke): Heh! Yeah, we were just talking about this culture of want to be the first and camping out for stuff being relatively new over here – something the new generation (us) adopted. The older folks don’t do that last time. πŸ™‚
    Jess: Yeah! There was a huge queue of people at the Maxis iPhone launch, everyone wanted to be the first in Malaysia to get it. πŸ™‚

  24. The iphone is interesting, but I recently got to use the HTC Incredible… and that IS incredible! My cousin just bought it and I really can’t believe how awesome it is. And with so many software programs available with open source, the possibilities are limitless.

  25. I think you can add some more pictures to your post. Surely a man needs a closed place wherein he may strike root and, like the seed, become.

  28. I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
