Optus: Midnight Opening in Sydney

Tuesday, 08 July 2008

Optus will be the first Australian mobile carrier to distribute the iPhone at midnight on Thursday, followed by Telstra and Vodafone early on Friday morning.

Optus will open its George Street store in Sydney at midnight on Thursday. On Friday morning, the day of the iPhone 3G's official debut, Optus will open a number of its stores two hours early at 7am for eager early adopters itching for their iPhone fix.

Melissa Clare, Optus's corporate affairs manager, said only those who had pre-registered to buy an iPhone with Optus in advance would be able to collect their handset at the midnight launch in Sydney. On Friday, pre-registered customers would get priority service but anyone could come and buy an iPhone.

A midnight opening means that we receive it 14 hours before people in New York (10AM New York Time Thursday = 12AM Sydney Time Friday)

	Comment 15 1029 psssh with the kinda options voda have released, who cares what time they open! optus wins by far, so what time their stores open is all that counts. I've been a loyal voda customer for 5yrs, i've been batting for them the past month, telling everyone, "just you wait till voda release pricing, they will be best by far". Utterly dissapointed, and unsure WHY they would do it. spew on voda. bye Report

	Comment 15 1029 I will say that despite the higher prices, i have been with both optus and vodafone and vodafone have always been much easier to deal with from a customer service standing. Ultimately, you pay for what you get. That being said, i'm still hoping that they'll lower the price. Keep watching the skis. Report
