iPhone in SA on 22 August?

This thread is oozing sarcasm left, right an centre.

If the iPhone is close to R10 000 I will seriously rather buy a cheapo second hand car and smash it up BAM style.
 
next thing Vodacom will release a statement saying that they still don't have a date for the 3G iPhone launch... this is what happened the first time around.

It will happen like this:

Vodacom press Report on 22nd August, 2009:
"we cannot give a date on the eagerly awaited iPhone as it can neither be denied or confirmed whether it actually exists. we have seen photos of these "otherworldly gadgets", but our Higher up sources say it might be a Scam / Photoshop hoax. If it does however exist, we will expand the price of it to make it more exclusive."

:D
 
Regarding the "copy and paste" actually there will be some conversion needed...but if you have a fast pc wont be a problem. JK8...want me to type out every single thing that can be done online? pfft

You might need to, cause he posted every single item he doesn't own in the MyBB comp....which was a lot.

I'm guessing the vids need converting, not the mp3's / jpegs. no biggie.
 
Went to the new apple store in Sandton over the weekend, they were selling the old model iPhone there for 8k prepaid.
I spoke to one of the clerks there, remarking that the new model will "probably" be more expensive, and he informed me much to my surprise that the new model will be priced lower (even as a prepaid/once off purchase).

SO if we estimate that it is reasonably priced on prepaid at R6000.00, then one can assume that we should be able to get it with a small pay in on a procall 120 equivalent(I'm not familiar with Vodacom's contract structure) and free on a business contract.

I doubt we will get it for R2000.00 though =)

Another thing apparently, you can't use the iPhone for VOIP, and use it as a modem? That would essentially making it an expensive brick for me. I donno if it's gonna be the same down here though.
 
Well according to MacRumours

The Apple site mentions the Dock Connector which is what they call the phones connector.

It doesn't matter - all i'm saying is it CAN BE DONE using simple ol' windoze Explorer. Who needs an iTunes store when you got torrents / RS.
