    Take note that from Apple Asia Pacific from this day onwards has disallowed shops to sell Apple laptops and iPhones/iPad/iPod and other Apple branded stuff in computer exhibitions like these.

    However, you can still find the 3 telcos there to buy iPhones, but with a line contract.

    Did they provide a reason for this?

    I hear one of the reasons was that they did not want to tarnish the brand image of Apple by having their products sold at a mass computer event, instead of Apple authorized retail stores.

    Bear in mind there are still market and environmental factors, one of which is the aftermath of the Thai flooding - it completely shut down many hard drive factories there.

    S$89 looks cheap. I'm not too sure about you guys here but last time I saw, lowest was $99...kinda like touching the $100 mark.

    Yeah, $89 is considered worth it for the market right now.
    Saw $99 too.

    But late Dec'11 to Jan'12, Thai was hit with bad flood and a lot of HDD factory were impacted and the last IT show, i think in Mar'12, HDD isn't as cheap. By the upcoming PC Show 2012 from June 8 - 11 (I think), hopefully price will reduce back to normal :x

    I heard from my friend who went today said

    The worst fair. Ever.
    80% occupancy
    15% credit card companies, refridgerator, books, bags
    50% repeated booths all selling the same products
    China tablets, ipcamera, almost no DIY stuff
    Prices worst than Sim lim
    Just sharing.

    Nevertheless I will still go on sunday :/
