this is good a news..hopefully other telcos will come out with micro sim too

Just called them about the micro-sim and it costs RM35 to get it. I am getting it this weekend!

I have a question. I am currently using unlimited package and also multi sim 1 line package. If I apply third micro sim, do I still enjoy unlimited package from the main and second sim?

Sounds plausible though, Singapore does fall within July timeframe, maybe we get stock from them as well hehe, our iPhone 3G were also previously from Singtel stock.

When the Australia units hit then that will be another nearer source for most people here then smile.gif May 28th, ain't too far off. Interestingly, engadget reports that Japan's iPad 3G is simlocked to Softbank Mobile.

not possible, if you do a very simple math.

ipod touch 64GB is now RM1600 (RM1599 to be exact), and that's for US$399. cheapest ipad is US$499, added US$100 easily add RM400 on top of the RM1600 ipod touch price. so if you buy RM2200 for ipad wifi 16GB now, you're not overpaying a lot.

RM2899 sounds a lot more like the 64GB 3G-less version, 64GB 3G can easily shoot up to RM3399~RM3499.

if you do some research, you can use the ipad with ANY telco as long as they provide micro sim (or DIY by cutting the stardard sim), even the US ipads.

so the chance for maxis to apply the contract on the ipads will be 0.000001%, even if they DARE to do it, imagine how many people will boycott maxis. laugh.gif

nothing wrong with comparing with ipod touch hehe. 2k for 16gb wifi ipad sounds about right. (1599/399)*499 = 1999 if u simply wanna count it that way lah tongue.gif
