Ok, so basically I have owned the best gadget any person in the world would be dying to have, The Great iPhone 4. Purchased on the 23rd October 2010 thru Maxis postpaid plan at one of the Maxis Exclusive Partners Centre somewhere in Shah Alam.
I remembered at that time, iPhone 4 was sold like hot banana fritters; everywhere it is almost impossible to own one. Hundreds of pending customers on the waiting list and some have even paid deposit in advance but still have to wait like 2 or 3 months before they can own the sacred gadget.
Several roadshows were held by Maxis in promoting the iPhone 4, on various locations nationwide, and yeah large crowds are anticipated queuing for each one of them. I have been told that people are willing to wait in front of the entrance door as early as 5am in the morning, i mean it's just a bloody phone aite? How precious can it be?
During the roadshows only hundreds of units were allocated for each day, and it happens that demand exceeds supply, well you get the point. By the time the roadshows start selling their iPhone 4 to the public, say at 9am, you wont have a chance to get yours if you've just start queuing. Please come back tomorrow morning, and this time, earlier.
Then if you have succeeded, the next step is to wait several more hours before your iPhone 4 finally can be brought home. Hectic, no? That's the reality.
Luckily I got my phone within 15 minutes only, it depends on how intelligent you are, hehe ;)
