DiGi commences registration of interest for iPhone 4S. Register here.

Finally DiGi too is joining the Malaysia iPhone 4S party. At the stroke of midnight, DiGi has placed a teaser for the upcoming iPhone which indicates that they are still in the race.

So now we have heard from Maxis, Celcom and DiGi. As mentioned earlier, Celcom is looking at being the first to offer iPhone 4S in Malaysia.

Celcom puts up iPhone 4S teaser on their website just after Maxis do so.The iPhone 4S is coming in Malaysia on December 16, barring any catastrophic disaster or anything along similar lines of severity, this is a certainty.

Both Celcom and Maxis have revealed that they will launch the device on the same day but which telco will be the first to have stocks in store for you to purchase?

While we would assume that both telcos will have iPhone 4S stock at the same time come December 16, Celcom is adamant that it will be the first operator to offer the device in Malaysia as a leaked internal communique that was made available to us reveals.

Curiously, DiGi has been very quiet about the iPhone 4S. We recall during the iPhone 4 launch the yellow fellow was actively competing with Maxis for your attention. Wonder what happened this time around?

Last month, Apple rolled out its latest handset in 15 new countries, bringing the total number of eligible countries to 44. The company has said that it plans to have the iPhone 4S in more than 70 countries by the end of the year. The site lists off several other countries that are reporting December 16th availability, including Taiwan, the Philippines, South Africa, and Malaysia.

Maxis starts registration of interest for the iPhone 4S. If you’ve been waiting for the iPhone 4S to launch in Malaysia, mark your calendars this 16th December 2011.

Next question would be how much would it go for? We predicted the pricing could be slightly lower compared to previous iPhone 4 outright pricing but prevailing US Dollar exchange rates might prove this otherwise. With 3 telcos offering the device, we can expect some competitive bundling.

A video was posted yesterday by esteemed jailbreak developer chpwn (Grant Paul) and Steven Troughton-Smith. Multiple stories from different sources have been published on a Siri port for non-iPhone 4S hardware, and this most recent video demonstrates the software running on an iPhone 4 and 4th generation iPod touch.

There have been multiple parties working on a Siri port on and off for weeks now. It’s not a new fact that the Siri UI can be run on non-4S hardware. As you can see in the above videos, Steven and Grant have been able to get Siri connecting with Apple’s server. Performance is smooth and Siri responds very quickly.

The first public evidence for a Siri port to the iPhone 4 was posted by Steve Troughton-Smith weeks ago in conjunction with Mark Gurman of 9to5Mac. A second video was posted showing performance enhancements, but Siri would still not connect with the device. Only the Siri UI had been ported, not the full package.
