The stuff also preparing lots of screen protector. dunno if it's free gift for tomorrow launch. As for the price, it hasn't been finalize. After much pestering they gimme the rough figure for my iPad 32GB wifi+3G @ SGD$1078 (RM2520). They said only will get the price once they close the store tonight. damn...

Just came back from sg, and manage to get 2 16gb 3gs. I queue from 930am, already no. 21,and I think each outlets only have less than 100.set to sell. Each person allow only 2 set. All sold out in 1st hour. Same for other outlet.
original docking with keyboard selling at S$99
*
3GS ? LOL biggrin.gif . I went Epicentre at Suntec @ 5pm, only left the 16GB wifi + 3G and all the wifi set available. So didn't get one as i'm looking for at least a 32GB wifi + 3G. The good news are is they bringing in new stock every week so the crowd will be getting lesser rclxms.gif

just figured out why the stocks at all sg outlets sold out today. all the traders are buying in bulk so that when the stock finishes, they can resell it for a higher price and claim stock unavailability as the reason for the price.

that seems like the reason after reading most post on hardwarezone sg forum. shocking.gif
*
not a smart move considering the premium reseller gonna bring in new stocks weekly ?

Just put the card in the sim slot. The iPAD will auto detect your card. Any simcard will do ; if digi you'd need to cut it down to micro sim size. For Maxis you can get the card at Maxis or you can cut it down to size yourself.
*
isn't it better buying one without 3G and get a mifi ? no need to cut the sim card and the mifi can create wifi for more equipments.

and mifi aint cheap, unless u buy the modem when u subscribe to mobile broadband like maxis or digi

actually it's not expensive, cost around sgd$240. The difference between a iPad wifi and a wifi+3G is around SGD$200. So you pay extra SGD$40 (RM90) but you have a small external device to transmit wifi (up to 10 equipments) and also the hassle of cutting sim card. So it's worth considering.

i went to maxis the garden yesterday and get the micro sim with package 3gb rm 88 per month n need to pay deposit rm 100...i browse the internet using wifi its wonderful excellent...after i get my micro sim i simply install to my ipad go to setting + data cellular ON + carrier set to AUTOMATIC and its done...now i am browsing use MY MAXIS

FYI my ipad is 3g wifi bought from US apple store thumbup.gif

3GB/month need RM88 ? 3GB is a bit too low rite ? Malaysian telcos really sucking the blood out of you all. I'll just stick to my M1 mobile broadband sim and use the Huawei E585 mifi, SGD19.95/month, 2mbps, UNLIMITED whistling.gif .

anyone using it with Digi Internet sim ? wondering how's the speed.

Just got back from Nu Box @ Jurong Point. New stocks have arrived, saw them marking all the box. The stocks it meant for those who have order earlier, probably selling some extra one as well. As I have ordered online, didn't ask them much on that. Who wanna try to get one can go there.

get this mifi if you lazy to cut. can connect up to 10 devices. the SGD$200 (RM460) difference between iPad wifi+3G Vs wifi only model is almost enough to buy the mifi device.

hi mackiddo,

i'm going to singapore in the next week or two for business. Any idea where I should look to get this device at good price? I'm tempted to wait for the 4G one which just launched in the US.

That would make your wifi-only ipad faster than those with 3G sims.

BTW, i got any 40% discount for zagg products. Please PM me if you want it. Thanks!

I have another 25%. Expiring soon.

Cheers,
Jerm

the best price so far for the E585 is SGD$235, the same price i got it. You could PM me if you need the dealer contact. Be sure to give him a call before you go down the shop.

actually the 4G one can't do much if the bottleneck still on the Msia telcos side. Even with 3G they still can't make fully use of the speed.

the best is to order thru apple store Sg while keep on hunting the apple premium reseller for one. you could always sell the one you don't need later on.

Is Zagg invisible shield highly recommended? And which seller would u recommend?

Thanks

i think better buy from zagg.com. I managed to digged a 50% code from the net, although a bit hard, i'm sure you could find it. If not, there's a lot of 40% code lying around.
