Next wishlist gadget

All the local Mac stores know nothing about the arrival of the iPad in Malaysia. So much for being official Mac store. Most of the time they are as clueless as anyone else.

Con man starting selling an iPad

Yeah saw someone posted in lelong also con man fakap

Those are not official mac stores. They're authorized resellers. there's a difference.

Also, even for official stores, unless they've been given permission to tell the public the release date, you're going to get the same response as well.

When when when I can own an iPad .. I am planning to get 1 for my mom..

On the issue of pricing:

I won't be surprised if people will do direct conversion without shipping + tax + profit margins!

Remember, iPhone was US$299, so RM 1000 right?
Then iPad US$499, so Apple Malaysia is forced to sell at RM 1700?
Haha..

I say, add 25% more for better guesstimate!

iPhone US$299 only sign up with AT&T in US, Retail price if not mistaken US$599.
The only thing make iPad will be expensive here because of the corruption, everybody want to take part on pie chart. In the end we have to pay...
U know like custom, sirim & whatever useless

Agree

no, there is one different
even you pay usd599 in state, the phone is locked phone
In malaysia, all iphone are open machine

The price of the iPhone was never USD299 in the first place. That's the price of the iPhone package from the carriers in the US, not the phone itself.

Now, what that will indeed mark up the price of the iPad will be actually tax. However this depends on what sort of device the iPad is classified under, on whether its classified as a mobile computer, or an entertainment device.

a fren of mine is in houston nw...msn me whether wan her to help on getting an ipad....she will back to msia by 27th...should i get fr state or rather waiting for malaysia version???

another concern fr me is i rather to get a wifi + 3G version...but as we knw, micro sim card is playing here...i wonder by time when launch in malaysia, our telco will having tis type of sim or nt...i preferred ipad running google maps via my bb....

p/s: conversion rate, 32gb USD 599+ 9.5% tax = USD 656 = <RM2,300...worth or nt?

Micro sim will be long way to go Only small handful of worldwide telco have micro sim available

Bear in mind that iPad warranty is only valid within the country it was purchased, just like the iPhone if I am not mistaken

ask her to play with wifi kaw kaw then bring back for u mah....scared wifi got problem then susah nak main.

cheap!
get la.. forget 3G.. if u dont want sell it here also untung

yes, iPad is cover by local warranty. which means that if you brought in US, you only can claim in US. For those who plan to buy those "imported" units, bear in mind about this terms. The seller can tell you until you can claim it in the heaven, but just go to apple.com read yourself.

Good luck for those choose to have it on hand 1st, if you faced any overheat problem or WiFi problem or even apple is decided doing any recall, make sure the guy who sell it to you provide the service to send back to state to claim your warranty!

I found some of the seller in LYN does sell iPad and mentioned that international warranty or singapore warranty. think 100time before you believe on it. Every ipad can easily identify their origin location by checking the serial number, i don't think any support can able provided to you time being in this region...
