20 countries get iPhone 3G on 22 August

Macworld reports Apple will be launching the iPhone 3G in 20 additional countries on 22 August.

Amazingly this comes in despite a certain telco claiming that high demand is hindering its progress to bring the iPhone 3G into Malaysia.

We are still adamant that this is not the case.

With regards to the supply-demand issue, as we’ve mentioned, Apple would soon have it under control based on their past experiences with iPod launches. Apple chief operating officer Tim Cook disclosed that Apple is confident is its ability to boost production to be able to launch the iPhone 3G in 20 more countries on 22 August.

Unfortunately, Cook didn’t specifically mentioned which countries will launch the device next month. Looking at the reports flying in we would name Singapore and India as hot favourites for the next batch of iPhone 3G.

Apple is looking forward to making the iPhone 3G available in 70 countries by year end and aims to shift 10 million phones within the same period.

We and over 200 iPhone 3G hopefuls are hoping Malaysia will be in the list of 70 countries.

Malaysia Boleh!

  1. I’m a Malaysian in Australia. I’ve already got the iPhone 3G in Australia for A$288 (around RM900). I have to tell you that since launch till now, the stock has been exhausted and you cannot find the iPhone 3G anywhere in Australia, except for the Apple Store in Sydney, the only Apple Store in Australia which stocks the phone daily.

    Hence, stocks are still very limited and that’s true.

  2. Is the phone you bought contracted with AT&T?

  3. Hi,
    Please the moment is available in Malaysia (Sarawak)let me know. Thanks for the Support.

    SoyaCincau says [080817/2135]: As soon as we know, we’ll try to let all of Malaysia know.

    But so far it’s all quite. perhaps the local boys are busy gearing up for MNP happening really soon. We’re hoping interesting things to happen during MNP.

    In any case, thanks for visiting and check here once in while for updates. :)
