Apple iPhone

[animatedude]

the iPhone in the UK is unlocked so you don't even need to unlock it.and the 32 MB version cost 599 pounds meaning the gulf mobiles stores who used to charge loads of money can suck it now.

the Apple stores in London are so awesome....i reserved 2 iPhones,they took my reservation using an iPad,how cool is that? then they sent me an email the same day saying my iPhones are soon to arrive blah blah...but i'm not holding my breath as ppl reserved weeks ago and still didn't get any.

anyways,i'm going back from London to Dubai on Monday,let me know if there's any reliable stores in Dubai which sells unlocked iPhone 4.i need them.

You "need" them?

[animatedude]

yes...i have never owned a smart phone and i have wanted for a long time...plus i wanna buy a couple more as gifts.

[animatedude]

seriously where i can find iPhone 4 in Dubai? where is what they call the "grey market" for phones?

[ozzylogic]

It's a shit phone. Stay away from it until they sort out the issues.

2 major issues identified already, and now:

yeah nobody heard about these issues  just tell me where is the grey mobile market in Dubai,will ya?

[madali]

You should probably look in the bazar. THat is, Nasser Square (Baniyas Square)

Ask the cabbie to take you to the mobile phone market near Hyatt Regency in Deira, near Al Ras Area.

it was for 9000 AED over Tersam,crazy.they even told me they had the 16 GB for 5000 AED but i shouldn't buy it,i said why? they said it's locked! what a bunch of morons.

most ppl are pissed about the attena issue,i'm not as much i'm pissed at the shortage of every Apple product everytime they release something new...i mean i can understand the iPad Apple didn't expect it to be THAT big but with the iPhone 4 it was obvious it was gonna sell like hot cakes....and do you know what makes me wanna throw up?

the Etisalat spokesperson in the UAE said this a month ago: “We don’t have any information about it. We haven’t talked to Apple yet about it, they have just released it,”

what a fuckin' idiot! if there's any region in the world that ppl are willing to pay for over 4000 AED contract free smart phone,it's the gulf.so why didn't u talk to Apple about it yet,you fuckin' moron?! this is the kind of weak lazy shit mentality that i don't like about Arabs.....the iPhone 4 should've debuted here the same day in the US or the UK because we even higher demand i can assure you that.

do you know that the "official" Apple distributor in the gulf still haven't released the iPad? in fact,they cut their ties with Jarir Book stores for releasing the iPad first.

if no other major company takes over Apple distribution in the gulf within the next 5 years then that would be so sad.

Like I said, buy it when they've sorted out the issues with a proper firmware update, not a tacky cover.

i think i'll wait until September 30 which is the last day for the free bumper case offer but i'm sure by that time it will be offered over here or on the Apple UK website with a 24 hours shipping sign,right now it says "3 weeks".i have waited so long to own a smart phone i can't wait any longer.
