A little too late. Celcom bringing iPhone 4 in “coming months”

Update: Unofficial Celcom iPhone 4 plans here

Celcom has just issued a media alert confirming that the telco will be offering the iPhone 4 “in the coming months”.

CELCOM TO LAUNCH iPHONE 4

KUALA LUMPUR, 22 MARCH 2011 – Celcom will launch iPhone 4 in Malaysia in the coming months. iPhone 4 is the most innovative phone in the world, featuring Apple’s stunning Retina display, the highest resolution display ever built into a phone and FaceTime, which makes video calling a reality. For more information on iPhone 4 please visit www.apple.com/iphone.

While the rest of the world is getting ready for the iPhone 5 to make its debut very likely in June, we have to question Celcom’s judgement and foresight making this announcement.

Unless they have a really good deal up their sleeves, there’s really not much of an appeal for prospective iPhone buyers to head to Celcom for an iPhone 4.

Most, if not all, who want to get an iPhone 4 would probably have gotten it already and we’re pretty sure that those who are saving up for an iPhone would probably wait for the iPhone 5 to come.

So barring a ridiculously good offer from the telco, would you get an iPhone 4 on contract from Celcom?
