According to the company, it will launch the handsets “in the coming months,” with an exact launch date and package details to be released later. According to Bloomberg BusinessWeek, DiGi signed a three-year agreement with Apple, which will signal the end of Maxis Communications’ exclusivity in the region. “The competition is going to be brutal,” said Scott Lim, CEO of MIDF Amanah Asset Management Bhd. in Kuala Lumpur. Maxis first launched the iPhone 3G in Malaysia in March 2009.
