Optus will offer potential iPhone 4 custmers a AU$49 capped plan, but with substantially better data allowance than Telstra, which also released its pricing today. On the AU$49 cap plan, Optus customers will pick up AU$450 worth of monthly calls and text and a whopping 1GB of data. Over the life of a 24-month contract, customers will pay $0 extra per month for the 8GB iPhone 3GS, and AU$8 and AU$15 extra for the 16GB iPhone 4 and 32GB iPhone 4 respectively.
The telco has three more iPhone plans: an AU$59 plan with AU$550 of included value and 2GB of data, a AU$79 plan with AU$800 value and 2GB of data, and an AU$89 plan with "unlimited" value and 3GB of data. Customers will pay nothing extra per month for their handsets under these plans — except AU$10 per month for the 32GB iPhone 4 under the AU$59 plan.

Thank you to all those who sent this in!
Looks now it's official from our Optus tip late last week. Optus is celebrating the arrival of the new Apple iPhone 4 with fantastic VIP launch events.

The Next Web: When Steve Jobs said in his recent press conference that the iPhone4 would be on sale in Australia on Friday July 30th he wasn’t joking.
We’ve had official confirmation that Optus, at least, will be hosting midnight launch parties next Thursday (to be precise the launch will happen at 12:01am on the 30th) in their flagship stores in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth.
Being the middle of winter, that news will come as welcome relief to the many people who thought they were going to have to camp in the street throughout the night before they could buy one in the morning.
While there’s no official pre-order form yet (there is currently only a register your interest page) there’s certain to be one if past launches are anything to go by.
Also, as usual, there are no pricing details, with all telcos playing their cards close to their chests for now, but that is due to change “over the coming days”.
While we only have details on the Optus launch, you can be sure that’s a great sign that the other major telcos will be doing something similar.
This launch will be especially interesting considering the recent antenna issues Apple has been facing with the new device.
As the first new launch of the iPhone anywhere in the world since the problems were discovered, it will be intriguing to find out whether or not demand is affected by all the negative publicity.
My bet? There’s probably going to be very limited stock at launch and the sold out sign will still be put up sometime in the early hours of the morning, as has happened in the past.
Will also be interesting to see how they handle the iPhone case distribution Jobs promised in that press release.

Optus have just released new iPhone 3GS deals. These deals are unique in that Optus have moved the iPhone 3GS to an even better price point AND added a 3 Months Free offer. It now puts the iPhone 3GS head to head in the market with most mid-range smart phones at $0 on the $59 Cap for the iPhone 16GB 3GS. If you've been waiting for the iPhone 3GS to come down in price, now is the time to pounce as this is a limited time deal (when Vodafone and Three offered a 3 Months Free deal on iPhones last year, it only lasted a single day!). For more information, check out the Optus website. |
