I was acting busy AGAIN today and chanced upon this hilarious article written by an icelander about the impending iphone launch outside the US. To quote him "You can’t be cool these days with a Sony Ericcsson. Motorola is so 2006. And forget about those bricks Nokia tries to pass off as phones. Cool is iPhone..." Really? Now where does that leave me - I carry a 2-year-old Samsung that only has basic camera/phone functions. Don't even talk to me about 3G - wtf?
Author goes on to say "While the people of Madagascar, Qatar, Uruguay, New Zealand and the Dominican Republic [and sunny Singapore] will be conference calling one another about how wonderful and hip life is since the dawn of the iPhone, Iceland was not marked in red. In fact, Iceland didn’t even make the map. According to Apple’s forecast, after the launch of the new 3G iPhone there will be nothing but the deep, blue sea between the West coast of Norway and the East coast of Canada. Apparently Apple plans to carpet bomb the North Atlantic with 3G iPhones until the islands of Iceland and Greenland sink back into the ocean whence they came." Well, i must say, he has a knack for words and imagery. Hahahaha.
Singapore [IS marked in RED] and Singaporeans are apparently up in a frenzy over these supposed pieces of cutting-edge technology. Priced at USD199, i heard that you have to write in to SingTel to apply for one of these things and there's no guarantee that you'll get the darn thing. it's up to their discretion who eventually ends up with one! poowee! better make some good friends within SingTel now if you even want to smell one of these babies. GEEK ALERT!! =P
