Is this really a new iPhone 4?!
You may have read about how I got my Fortress iPhone 4 this morning. I was in for another surprise (first surprise: actually getting the iPhone 4) soon after leaving the store: the first time I fired up the App Store, I was greeted with a password prompt from an unfamiliar email address. Hmm? I didn't know an email address was required for activation of the iPhone by the Fortress staff... and my first iPhone 4 certainly did not have a strange email address waiting for me in the App Store. … [Read more...]
iPhone 4 & Fortress
I woke up way earlier than I intended to on a Saturday morning and thought, why not go down to Fortress for a stab at the iPhone 4? Armed with my Egg McMuffin breakfast, I arrived at 7:45am. It was quite hot as they made us line up outside, and this is what greeted me: Over 2 hours later, Fortress employees finally showed up and started handing out "tickets"... luckily I ended up being number 70 out of 100, so I am just waiting for a call back from Fortress to pick up my phone. Wasn't … [Read more...]

OFTA – Mobile Bill Shock
The OFTA (Office of the Telecommunications Authority) have published a document on measures taken by mobile operators in Hong Kong to prevent mobile bill shock. What is mobile bill shock exactly? Say you've gone overseas with your HTC or iPhone and not knowing better, you use data roaming as if you were in Hong Kong.

I sold my iPhone 4
Here in Hong Kong the iPhone 4 is in extremely high demand.. and not just for us local Hong Kongers, but for many other countries within the Pacific region. Singapore was the only other Asian country to get an official iPhone 4 launch on July 30, so I bet there must be similar scenes there in the grey market. Phone shops here are (currently) paying upwards of $8,000 HKD for the 16gb iPhone 4, while $9,000+ is offered for the 32gb version. I've just sold my iPhone 4 today and placed an order … [Read more...]
