The pricing for iPhone 3GS (32GB and 18GB) and iPhone 3G has also been slashed significantly (well, not really since the upfront payment is more. Read the details below).

But who knows Digi might come up with other plans or rebate for existing subscribers soon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Do check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.digi.com.my\/iphone\/getone_want_iphone.html\" target=\"_blank\">Digi Website<\/a> for more info.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffcc00;\">UPDATE: The Confusing Part about DiGi\u00a0 iPhone Price and Plans<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Actually, the iPhone monthly plans is still the same as previous package but you pay more for the upfront payment to somehow lower the monthly fees that you&#8217;re paying. The only thing is that you can get the iPhone at a lesser price (<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">savings of RM200<\/span>).<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Previously : <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>RM1590 + RM88 x 24<\/strong> = <span style=\"color: #ffff99;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>RM3702<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Now :<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>RM2062 +  RM60 x 24<\/strong> = <strong><span style=\"color: #ffff99;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">RM3502<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For iDiGi 88, you must pay Digi RM28 x 24 months + the phone price as stated.<br \/>\nFor iDiGi 138, you must pay Digi RM48 x 24 months + the phone price as stated.<br \/>\nFor iDiGi 238, you must pay Digi RM78 x 24 months + the phone price as stated.<\/p>\n<p>So for iDiGi 88, though you&#8217;re paying RM60 per month, you&#8217;re actually paying RM88 per month for 24 months since you have paid the RM28 (for 24 months) in the upfront payment. Of course, after 24 months, you can start saving on the monthly plans.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, its the case of 2&#215;5=5&#215;2. Haha. Nice work DiGi!!<\/p>\n<p>By the way, do wait till iPhone 4 is here. The price for iPhone 3GS and 3G will surely drop again.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DiGi (Malaysia) is now offering even more affordable plans for iPhone starting from only RM60 per month.
