      SingTel debuts the 3G iPhone in Singapore

      10-Jun-08, 09:23

      SINGAPORE - SingTel will become the first telco firm in Singapore to offer the newly launched 3G version of the iPhone.

      First previewed by Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs at the Worldwide Developer Conference on June 9th, the mobile device features improved 3G networking speeds and built-in GPS functions at a cut-down price of US$199.

       Tim Cook, Apple’s COO, said: “We are excited to be working with SingTel to bring iPhone 3G to millions of mobile customers in Singapore. We can’t wait to get this revolutionary mobile device in the hands of even more people around the world.”
       
      Quek Peck Leng, SingTel’s executive VP of consumer, added: “We are pleased that Apple has selected SingTel to be the first mobile operator in Singapore to launch its new iPhone 3G.”
       
      “Customers can enjoy internet access on the move, supported by SingTel’s 3G network coverage and new range of services which we will be launching over the next 12 months.”
       
      The Singaporean telco will reveal full pricing and availability of the Macintosh product later this year while a microsite has been developed for local consumers to pre-order for the highly-anticipated device.

    • actually, seems we have to wait longer:

      " The Singaporean telco will reveal full pricing and availability of the Macintosh product later this year while a microsite has been developed for local consumers to pre-order for the highly-anticipated device."
