Apple iPad will be available at Malaysia stores and authorized resellers nations wide in July 23 with starting price RM1,699 for 16GB WIFI and goes to RM2,899 for 64GB WIFI+3G.

Where do you get that info lugu4?, wow so cheap. Better wait to get another unit.

even tho he didnt give the source of info, i have a feeling it's accurate

cant wait to get official ipad

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?

source please ? inside info?

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.

july 23 - still got 2months ++...still long time to wait

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

rm1699 sounds believable..it's still within my speculated price..

if july 23rd not happening in malaysia i'll gonna get my bro to bring back one of wifi ipad from japan..lucky he'll be back home for raya in august XD

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.

So far Japan's iPad 3G is simlocked, well as reported online, doubt it will be the case here

if maxis bring d ipad..the price will be lower+contract rite...surely not simlocked

ya.thts y i m waiting here in australia..can pre-order for now but mayb straight head to apple store and feel it...


i think it is impossible for ur price estimation..
many ppl will think not worth for RM3k+..n not fair to compare ipod touch 64gb with 16gb ipad

cause iphone also not locked, i don't think ipad will be locked.

that's just my estimation based on the ipad/iphone range...it kinda make sense to compare to ipod because ipad is basically a giant ipod touch.

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
