The launch of Blackberry Torch by Celcom

On 29th October 2010, Celcom launched Blackberry Torch officially. I attended the press conference which was scheduled at 3.30pm at the La Bodega Restaurant in Pavillion. I met few other bloggers as well such as Zaid, Kak Ina, and Chearmster  (who look like Azwan Hj.Ali). In the restaurant, there was free flow on the drinks and snacks. I was shocked at the amount of people queuing up for the Blackberry.

Look at the queue, it's freaking long...

As you all may know, first 8 persons get to purchase the Blackberry at RM8, the following 100 will get it at RM488 and the next 100 can purchase it at RM888. The original price is RM2500. So, i say the promotion by Celcom was indeed good... The first person to be there was Andrew and followed by Aina who came there to queue as early as 4am... whoa!!! you heard me right, they came to queue at 4 in the morning.

 Mr. Chee Pok Jin, Chief Marketing Officer Celcom Axiata Berhad is giving his  officiating remarks before launching the device

For those who still wanted to get the Blackberry Torch, you can purchase it at RM1388 for a monthly commitment of RM250. For those who opt for a monthly commitment of RM148 or RM118, you can get the device at only RM1,588 and RM1,688 respectively. Specifically for the corporate clients, Torch is available from as low as RM1,188 with a monthly commitment of RM248 for 24 months.
