iPhone is finally in Malaysia

For the first time since the Apple iPhone was released in the United States in 2007, Malaysians can now get their hands on the phone legally.

Previously, iPhone aficionados resorted to purchasing parallel imports as it was not available here, but they can now own the popular gagdet come March 20 under Maxis Communications Bhd’s postpaid plans.

The iPhone 3G combines three products in one – a phone, a widescreen iPod, and an Internet device – and it can be booked via Maxis website or at any of the 29 Maxis Centres nationwide.

Maxis, which is the iPhone partner for Malaysia, announced in a statement yesterday that it would be offering a range of new tariff plans starting from RM100 a month.
