QUOTE(ianho @ May 6 2010, 02:07 PM) Problem with using phone is that it's very slow. U will get about 200k speed only. If u use mifi, average speed is about 800k. Lowyat shop don't need to pay rent n staff ka? Online trader just sit at home. Total agree with you and same like me just ask someone to get to send to here. I think it is better to buy from those who are having it now.

QUOTE(ksc_3688 @ May 6 2010, 12:09 PM) not that easy calculation bro. for example, the 32gb ipod touch is sold at 299usd on Apple store US, and after converting, it cost rm980++. but the item is sold at rm1199 by our apple malaysia and their resellers. so for sure the price wont be the same and i have a strong feeling the price would be just a little lower than the prices that are currently sold here in Lyn. Add up ~~ 20% Gov taxation which apple bundles in.......... It's better from sellers..!!

i think, taking into factors the current ringgit, the price will be lower. just look at the price of new macbook, it follows the conversion with a little hike.
ksc calculation is using the ~3.2 current rate but the 1199 was the price when our ringgit is at ~3.8 rate.
I usually compare the latest gadget price between us apple store and malaysia apple store to anticipate the launch price. Plus, the 16gb wifi ipad should be lower than macmini entry price as it's priced lower in US. so if in malaysia they sell cheapest mac mini for RM2199, what will be the price of lowest iPad which is USD100 cheaper?
so based on my point, i would speculate that the price range should be between 1.6k - 1.8k for the 16GB wifi

Were you able to watch movies on it previously?

Were you able to watch movies on it previously? ya no problem before , still thinking what might cause it first movie is around 500mb and the second one is around 300mb so file size is not the reason i suppose , previously watching movies was fine even a 2gb file was smooth, the only difference circumstances that i could think of for now is that previously my hd is less then 50% full now it is almost 90% full maybe i was updating app on the background not so sure gonna do a test later...

Wow 16GB almost full? What did you load up on it? I bought 16GB iPad because on my iPhone never even reached half full.

Same here, loaded movies onto my iPhone in the beginning, then got tired of the process, now only a few Aikido vids I look at for reference. I somehow feel that with the iPad I won't install as many apps as on the iPhone though, what do you guys think?
