have you even try to buy apps from itunes on your PC?

no go. i tried to buy ipad apps using MY account, it keep denying my billing/credit card info, although i make sure my details are 100% correct and triple checked, they still deny it.

i think it's because they don't allow non-US credit card purchases.

well that is what i actually want to know? So far from this forum that we have to buy something like top up account inorder to buy the credit to buy the software.

I just buy the apps via skalominia's thread for iTunes gift cards. That's the only way its worked for me so far.
Basically just remember this- since the iPad isn't available internationally other app stores besides the US also won't be open. So just create a free US Account refer a few pages back, and you're set to go!

EDIT
I actually have no problem buying/getting free iPad apps via pc.

This is how I buy and download apps:-

1) From iPad - Need to login App Store using US account. ONLY FREE apps can be downloaded.
2) From Laptop/Mac - Login App Store / iTunes using MY account. Can download BOTH FREE and Purchased Apps
3) From Laptop/Mac - Login App Store / iTunes using US account. Can only download FREE Apps

NOTE: My US Account don't have any credit card. Also I don't have any iTunes Gift Card. Thus, I can only download FREE apps.

I have purchased most of my iPhone apps and iPad apps via the iTunes MY account. Have been doing this for a while. I only use my iTunes US account only if the apps do not appear in the MY store such as some Konami games and of course the Apple iWorks. For my US account I just iTunes credit via the gift cards.

Added on May 11, 2010, 10:37 pmThe App Store is available to all countries (*listed by apple), but the iTunes client on the iPad currently only allows access to US based account. So you can buy apps from the MY store via your Mac or PC client and sync it to your iPad without issues. If the app is not available in MY store, just log into US account and purchase it with gift cards then sync as well.

Yes you can subscribe via credit card, when you try to subscribe it will take you to a webpage to perfom the transaction.

Added on May 11, 2010, 11:17 pmGift cards only work with US iTunes account. If you do a search on the threads here you will find the steps required to create a US account without the need for a credit card, then you basically top up your account with the gift cards, or redeem them. If you search the Garage Sales thread, you will find a person by the name of skalominia whom is selling such a thing.

Anyone have encountered Compatibility Issues after Spirit Jailbreak?

Hi,

Anybody here has the experience to import the iPad by courier to Malaysia?

1. What kind of courier type is recommended?
2. What to write on the parcel?
3. How to declare?
4. Do we need to go to Sirim for approval?
5. How much duty/tax have to pay?

Thanks for sharing.

With 2 accounts (1 US, 1 MY) when you sync to iPad only 1 account is allowed right?

1. I recommend Fedex but others have used UPS, DHL etc
2. tablet computer
3. tablet computer
4. not when I did it
5. no tax/duty, only expensive shipping fees

Thanks for sharing. Pls let me know more info if you think it is relevant. Thanks

Of course it syncs to the account that you log in.

Added on May 12, 2010, 8:52 amYes, I heard in some airports that they don't request the iPad to be taken out for security check-in unlike the Laptop. Thus, proves its a PDA rather than a computer.

Some compatibility issues, but apps in Cydia have a helpful little button that tells you whether the app is compatible with OS3.2

Thanks for the link!

Ya, I'm checking with my friend now. I'll confirm with you if it's 100% true

If not I guess I'm buying from a friend of mine who'll be in Japan in July.
