Optus iPhone 4 launch
Optus have announced they are doing VIP events for the iPhone 4 launch this week.
Selected city stores (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane & Perth) will be opening at midnight Thursday.
You must be registered with them, which you can do via the Optus website.
Of course, if you can’t be bothered lining up at midnight and getting in first, then you can still purchase via their website or stores thereafter.
Other Telcos
Three and Vodafone also offering the iPhone at the same time:
- Buy iPhone 4 through Vodafone
They’ve got great plans.
Unless you need to bother with Telstra based on your location, I wouldn’t worry about their iPhone 4 plans… I don’t reckon they compare.

Drought hits Australia
It seems in Australia (well, in fact globally), we are experiencing a new kind of drought.
Yes, along with the weather drought our country has been suffering through for about ten years, there is now also an iPhone drought!
Oh lord, how will we ever cope? (says the farmer’s daughter, with tongue firmly in cheek)
Will we have to take a page out of India’s book and have naked iPhone virgins dance for the Apple Gods?
Telco’s out of new iPhones
If you’ve been trying to purchase your iPhone through Telstra, Virgin, 3 etc, you’ll discover that many are either completely out of iPhone stock, or very close to (which may involve driving from store to store to find the last remaining iPhone 3G S…).
Why is this? Apparently there is a global shortage, with Apple not able to keep up with the supply demand.
Where to buy the iPhone 3G S
It’s interesting to note that you can still grab yourself an iPhone online at Apple AU, with an estimated 5-7 day delivery turn-around.
You could of course, also put your name down on all the Telco waiting lists and see who can deliver the fastest?!
