Depends on what they meant by "not much use to you". Everyone has different needs and wants and everyone has a different reason for getting an iPad. Believe if you are able to fit the iPad into your lifestyle rather than the other way around, then it is a just purchase smile.gif Buying from UK will probably add a bit more to the cost but hey never say no to free shipping I guess smile.gif

A lot of people seems to think an iPad can fits their lifestyle... that's the problem.
They tend to "force" fit iPad into their lifestyle.... Just to justify the purchase. BIG problem...
It should be the other way around... Think about the things that you do daily ... can it be replace by an iPad? A lot of apps need to be purchase to make it complete... Otherwise people will get stuck with the "default" apps and later they complain, iPad can't do want they want.

Agree with you totally smile.gif My statement meant that you should see whether the iPad can complement the things you do on a daily basis.

Just jailbreak my iPAD - whole process takes less than 10 minutes. So far only installed Backgrounder - a very good tool to have multitasking enabled. Now i can download things in background while executing other apps.
To those who wish to jailbreak , one word of caution : NEVER NEVER hit the Spirit Jailbreak quit button until the iPad is fully reset and you see Cydia apps displayed. Else you will see a continual looping and unit freeze up and it cannot be switch off. Read several such comments in the Spirit forum.

Hey thanks you guys. I totally agree with you. When i buy anything i always think of what i can do with it too. I NEVER force a purchase or buy something just for the fun of having it.
Any student user iPad around there. Usually what do u guys mainly do on a daily basis?

One of my points of getting it is for travel. Since i travel to classes everyday by train and also catching flight back to msia and to. BTW, i'm studying in moscow. I already own an iPhone since the 2G era and i feel iPad can serve more as an entertainment object more than my iPhone..am i wrong?


Added on June 9, 2010, 12:33 pmOh and i would like to ask..i tried browsing the itunes store but don't seem to have any luck. Do iBooks have like study related books?

I'm a medical student so another reason is reading without carrying such heavy books.

Study related books, you don't go for iBooks, you go for iTunes U. Granted, iTunes U is more lecture material with thesis and such, but I don't know what specifics you need for your course material.

AS for referential books, you stand a better chance going through Amazon Kindle ebook downloads than iBooks. For the time being iBooks selection is meager compared to Kindle Store.

If it is apps you're looking, try Blausen Human Atlas HD, or if your needs are more than just viewing human anatomy, try this website www.imedicalapps.com and follow through with their suggestions. Some of the apps recommended there may not seem to jump out to you as a medical-based applications, but they are useful for daily usage of a medical student. Good luck!

Well, I am a student here and I am in college. I travel pretty often overseas. US,UK,Japan,Aussie and so on. I already have an iPhone 2G and it serve me for a nice solid 2 years. No problems at all. Now I am using the 3GS and I use it for calls, text and the apps which help my daily use. My iPad is basically my travel companion. When I sit in the flights for 7-24 hours, it does the job. From tying my school work to playing games. Better battery life and larger screen laugh.gif

When I am at home, I use the iPad to surf the internet while sitting on my sofa watching TV. I don't have to carry my macbook up and down the house which I used to do before having the iPad. One thing I like is reading news on the iPad. I tend to read newspapers from US,UK and our own Msian papers. I don't have to go out and hunt for newspapers when it is available within the reach of my hand. tongue.gif

When I am in school, I use it to take notes as it is much faster than writing during certain days. I still do my report by writing and walk out to the store to buy my morning papers. It just feels weird without it. It has helped me in different ways and different times. I can say sometimes I bring my iPad out more than my macbook because it is lighter and it allows me to type my reports and surf the net like what the macbook does.

The iPad has been great and definitely it fits my lifestyle. rclxms.gif

That only works if the Huawei Mifi has been updated to the latest firmware - the basic firmware (even unlocked) doesn't allow changing the settings via a wifi connection.

Eralus - once you connect to the PC, go to Tools, the last option will allow you to set and change APN profiles.

Hmm you know I agree on the point that you should know WHY you want to buy an iPad and not just because you think " OMG ITZ TEH COOLZZ" ... I've got a few people asking me if they should buy an iPad, which model to get etc etc..

and I told them quite simply and bluntly, if you need to ask those questions, then you shouldn't be wasting your money on one (unless you are freaking rich and the iPad's cost is nothing to you). I've already worked out what I will be using it for etc etc before making the purchase and I am now using it as I've intended and happy with it. Nothing bugs me more than people who just buy things to be in the "cool club" but finding no use for it and asking me to teach them how to use it to have "fun" mad.gif

If you feel an iPad serves more as an entertaining device, I think its not worth buying an iPad...
