Not many Blackberry in white color available in Malaysian market, especially the official set from telcos. For those that looking for uniqueness, this is your days as Maxis has brought one, Blackberry Bold 9700 and yes it is white color.
Maxis has standardized the pricing structure for all Blackberry package which include the device price and BIS subscription fee for 1 year or 6 months according to you line type. That means you have to dig slightly deeper into your pocket to own one such device from Maxis.
So here is the deal. Maxis is offering Bold 9700 white it at RM2459 for postpaid customer which comes with ‘free’ BIS service for one year. For prepaid customer, they need to fork out RM2279 with 6 months ‘free’ BIS service.
I’m now wondering why telcos nowadays love to charge the subscription fee in advance? To avoid MNP??
