For all my Philippine readers! This is the news you’ve all been waiting for!

iPhone 3G is coming to Manila shores on August 22!

Take a look at their new iPhone plans.

The old mobile plans like GText or GFlex, etc have iPhone plans as well so you might want to check it out here.

Oh, and also, you might want to reserve an iPhone if you’re planning to get!

As for me, the subscriptions sort of made me go, “Eeep!” since they’re waaay too expensive!

The cheapest plan is the GText which is Php 500.00 a month but I would have to purchase the 8GB iPhone at Php 29,000.00 ($644.00) and the 16GB iPhone at P34,500.00 ($766.00). Mighty expensive!

The plans for Pre-paid plans are as follows: 8 GB P41,899 ($931.00) and 16 GB P48,899 ($1086.00). Woohoo!!! So pricey!!!

So much for the $200 iPhone dream ;)

    Yup, wrote about it on Cnet asia as well because a bunch of my blog and twitter contacts said the same thing… too expensive!

    It is however still a vanity gadget, and I’m pretty sure those with the money to spend will want to get their hands on it.

    meh that’s soooo expensive, whatever happened to their claim that its going to be half the price? sheesh

  6. Athame says:

    It’s actually affordable if you have monthly regular income. You can get the IPhone unit at 12 month payment with 0 interest
