Three to Apple: We Want iPhone !

It seems Three and Hutchinson team has failed to secure the new iPhone for Australia. Maybe because Australia population is relatively small or perhaps due to something else. Optus and Vodaphone are the lucky one in downunder to get some quota of the new iPhone for their customer.

Although I am still not a Mac user, I’d love to have iPhone as my mobile. Beside my Motorola A1000 has approached its retirement age (more than 2 years already). So, yeah I am in the market for new phone and seems the price-reduced-newly-3G iPhone is the perfect candidate.

As you can guess, unfortunately, I am with Three. Although we can carry our number among provider (thanks to government’s number portability scheme), I kinda like Three services here: cheap rate, generous cap and even their cap quota can be used for overseas call – not all provider allow that. Also, although my binding contract with Three is over already – so I can move freely – but my wife and my backup broadband are also with Three…. So, I would like to stay with Three but I want iPhone as well !

Just launch yesterday, this movement may make my wish come true, Three organizes online petition for everybody that want to get iPhone with Three to sign. Three wants to show Apple that they have enough number to be given decent quota. Looks like a bit desperate. But it might work.

In my opinion, as the pioneer of 3G network in Australia, Three should be given the honor to have exclusive deal for iPhone. Obviously they don’t. Well, at the end it’s just business , right ?

So.. If you want iPhone with Three, go to the petition website and lodge your voice. I did !
See you around !

Wedding Day in Sydney: add good choir to the equation

It’s always beautiful to talk about Wedding Day !

We want it to be perfect. Perfect weather, perfect dress, perfect decoration, perfect singing, perfect ceremony, the right church and priest, the right wedding favor, the right guests, the right present and of course with the near-perfect person that we want to spent the life with. Why ? Because we supposed to have it only once in our lifetime. (Apparently it’s become harder and harder these days)

Because of this intention, then the cost of decent wedding day is become more expensive each day. And almost always, a wedding become over-budget.

For some of us who dream about perfect wedding in the church, one of important component is to have a choir in the wedding ceremony. Some 15-20 men and woman who sing in Tenor, Bass, Alto and Soprano in perfect harmony. “Wow, forget it ! How can we afford to hire proper choir for our wedding day, it just too expensive !” … or is it ?
