Dear client

We are happy to advise that the first wave of the Apple iPhones have now been activated on Vodafone, working with the client’s regular Vodafone SIM card. The activation is handled through an engineering firm in Christchurch, using the Turbo SIM method. All phone and wireless functions of the iPhone appear to work well, with the exception of visual voicemail, which is a unique AT&T feature. This means that no AT&T 2-year contract is required to operate an iPhone in New Zealand.

We thank you for your business in the past, and as we are growing quite rapidly, we have migrated to an online shop, to serve our clients faster. You can access our shop through www.toshcomputers.com or directly at www.toshbuy.com. We invite you to browse; there is a one-time gift voucher for new Mac purchases.

 And my birthday is coming soon… 

I won a trophy. Michael say's it's his.
