yalo plus i was thinking to ask my parents to get an ipad for themselves...lately they seem eager to learn how to use internet haha old people ma. but the house in they live in no streamyx (since no one uses it), so a 3g version is needed. hopefully some telco here will starting selling microSIM

Just cut off all the plastic from the sides of the sim card, and tada. you have microsim.

Here is how microsim looks like.

i hope they will finalize the design with build in camera so we can have video conference,and can install a basic software like,MSword,powerpoint,etc2....then they will pawn ipad..

You can have the equivalent of those software on the iPad already albeit with some limitations. I am torn on the camera bit as I hardly use the in built camera on the macbook anyways. I don't think it is so much about the hardware but the software that makes or breaks the device and in this respect, Apple has once again shown the rest how it is done, of course this will spur more competition in the field which is always good for consumers.

Actually im looking for a small laptop,i dont need all the features that a laptop have,it just for surfing,watching movies while travelling,video call,and words..so ipad came cross to my mind.yeah,maybe i should say,it depends on individual..as for me,the camera to use with video call since im studying and will be working overseas,and yes its quite important for me.i heard,u cant watch movie that u sync from itunes unless u bought it from itunes store ? is this true ?

how do you do that exactly?
tx

you can always sync any movie thru itunes, even those not downloaded from itunes store, as long as the format is supported. i dont see why that would change with the ipad

you can do that with the mywi app, only available for JBed phones. it's a paid app. 10usd

thats what i thought..but i dont know,my friend told me that..do u have ipad ? maybe ipad owner can clarify this..hurmm

no issues syncing movies on your PC to your iPad of course got to convert first

tx for d info

so my wife wants one. any ideas how much and where its available from outside the international launch?

Regarding videos, I bought Air Video for 3 bucks, and it streams all of the possible format to my ipad. The wonderful thing is that it works flawlessly (except my stupid Riger streamyx modem which occasionally disconnect).

For HD movies, my WiFi G doesn't provide enough bandwidth for full quality stream, so I have to scale it back a little. Even so, it provides more definition than what I get from some original standard definition sources.

Works also wtih 1080P source.

@Lord_Ashe: Canada/Euro launched is delayed to late May. No words on Malaysia release yet

So how long your iphone battery will last if using as a wifi Ap?

4hrs..

Used the same method as Edoras, only bit is that I have to whip out my iPhone to switch on the app but it is a small price to pay for convenience when using a wi-fi only device until we get wi-fi everywhere
