Utusan came out with the news regarding Maxis is planning on getting their hands on 3G iphone -- during Maxis Mobile Challenge 2008. In the online article, it mentioned on the estimated revenue of USD 150 billion (about RM 485.93 billion by to date's exchange currency) worldwide. Mobile devices industry itself worth around USD 154.34 million (RM 500 million) on local market.

Utusan is one of Malaysia's major newspaper brand; written in Malaysian Language known as Bahasa.

On the contrary, I don't see any changes or updates on Apple site though.

Since I am left with less than 24 months to sign with AT&T (or contract-free iPhone will cost a bomb), I surely vote "yes" to iPhone 3G to be market in Malaysia.

Still, my surrounding friends define 3G means video-calls between two parties, not the speed of 3G. So that means 3G iPhone is still left with flaws all over. No front camera for 3G conferencing? hmm hopefully my 1st-gen iPhone could serve me well until 3rd-generation iPhone. So maybe I'll pass on this one.
