You may be in for a dilemma here. I have two occasions where I CAN get you the STM Micro bag while I'm in Brisbane and Perth this month, BEFORE the Muzetto stock improves. Decisions, decisions, decisions.

smug level too high, cannot utter the words "i dont know" or "im not sure"

if using bluetooth keyboard, the virtual keyboard wont show up right?

Yes and no. I notice that native iPad apps like Notes and entering URLs into Safari on iPad will have it hidden when a BT keyboard is present, but iPhone-compatible apps like Beejive for iPhone will still have the soft-keyboard appearing. Either way, does not really detract from the experience.

Pfft I'm typing on my iPad with Dinovo Mini. Works like charm! Even the media keys works (play, pause, volume up/down, mute).

thank you to string im a proud owner of an ipad ....i think it will be in my back pack for the whole time starting from today ...

btw any nice kinda rpg game for the ipad????

Enjoy!

RPG games? Not that I know, or any that is iPad-specific. Most of them are still in iPhone-resolution. I fully recommend Square-Enix's Chaos Rings, superb production value, and very much reminiscent of Vagrant Story. Tried it on the iPad, it looks terrible pixel-doubled, but SE has announced that the HD version is coming soon.

quick question about iAnnotate (or any pdf reader with annotation support). if u transfer a pdf to-and-fro a mac, will all the annotations made in adobe acrobat pro will be intact in iAnnotate and vice versa?

Some comments I read on the net about STM bags....

try to check from the menu bar, Store > Check for Available downloads

if dun have, and if u got the receipt for the previous purchase, u can send an email to apple saying that ur download was interrupted n also mention that u already paid for it. they were very helpful to me last time

edit: uhhh well the question was deleted +_+

being a first time mobile safari user, i find the annoying part of the safari browser is that it cannot hold more cache or opened page more than 2~3 pages (of average sized webpages).

any other browsers can handle more webpages/tabs remain opened?

EDIT: found iCab, seems like a really good browser and can download virtually any files with the included download manager.

Not this round though. What I'm gonna do is take it easy and if I happen to bump into iPad accessories while walking around Brisbane, I'll get online and tweet it, and have limited time hanging around the store to see if anyone is interested. The easiest way is to keep a lookout on my tweets coz I'll be posting my findings there.

alright then. will be glued to your twitter acc then.

i tried atomic browser lite, and having the same "problem" as the safari - when i load 2 different loooong webpage with quite a lot of images, it'll take a while to load the images when i scroll up or down. unlike desktop version, all the webpages are cached and available for immediate full view.

any other browser can do this?

Finally the iPad 3G is out of her confines, just registered her just now on iTunes.

The first thing it did? Searching for signal, it even came with a popup message saying that "it may take a while" After registering was complete, the "No service" message was displayed on top left corner of the iPad, which is logical since I'm thousands of miles away from US.

The "Carrier" setting is set to "Automatic" that was the first thing I unchecked, so now it searches through a list of carriers the inserted microsim detects, and I can manually select which service provider I want. The APN setting window is also open, so you can put in whatever setting you want, in the case of the Maxis microsim, it should be plug-and-use straight away.

After deliberating with my bro and him consulting his wife, he is giving me his Maxis staff-allocated account which is FREE FOR LIFE, with a data cap of 3GB. His wife which is in Maxis Broadband, will be registering a microsim to that account, and I'll get to use it by the middle of the week. Can't wait!

I probably need to read up on how Maxis treat its data usage, the speeds and what happens when that package's data cap is used up. 3GB on the iPad does not seem like much. Or should I just dump all this data cap nonsense and register another *gulp* third unlimited data account with Celcom? I'm not willing to mutilate the second data sim I've signed up with Celcom just to fit it into the iPad 3G, the current MiFi arrangement I'm using right now is very convenient and even the iPad 3G can tap into it. I just want a permanent arrangement, a suitable data package to be fitted into the iPad 3G without bleeding me more money every month.

My current expenses:-

- iPhone 3G[S] on Celcom EXEC 250, comes with FREE Celcom Broadband Advance
- A second data-only Celcom Broadband Advance RM98/month for the Novatel MiFi

Should I mutilate the second data-only sim card for the 3G iPad and abandon the MiFi itself, or maintain MiFi and find some cheap data plan (with proper microsim preferred) that can properly cover a typical 3G iPad usage (whatever that is, since I don't really know how I will pattern myself using the 3G iPad because it's so new)?

Come to think of it, even though Maxis has the microsim, its data plan isn't exactly what I'd call cheap. Headache!
