To all iPad gurus out there, I'm asking a friend to get an iPad for me when he's back from Australia in next few weeks. So would appreciate your help since I can't go thru the entire thread.
1) Could he claim tax rebate since he's a student there since last year Nov? If got how much? - Checked at another thread, seems ok. 2) Could we tether 3G services from an iPhone? Or should I get the 3G model instead. 3) Does the package comes with an iPad dock or sold separately?
Thanks for any kind soul help.

Next week perhaps. Anyway visited Sim Lim Sq and Far East Plaza, those "gray" shops are selling the iPad at $100 - $200 markups!!! Dang...

Check most of the shops also sold out 1 day b4 i reached... or 1 hour late.  Anyone has any news on whereabout can i find Ipad Wifi only in sg? im Leaving tomolo night .. Mission failed... On other hand.. My sister in sg who scout ipad with me...end up buying herself a new I mac  " which she has no plan for it... Well you could try SimLim (just like Lowyat).... those grey resellers are selling it at markup of RM350- RM450 (including) gst.... no luck at any of the Apple resellers.... I give up trying and just asked a friend's favour to order it online..... easier that way.... gd luck

Y don't u look up ksc_3688 if you're really interested in getting one fast  He might just be able to help u  Nope..... has been waiting for awhile now..... but prefers to get SG sets (for warranty purposes).... When scouting at SG for the last 2 weeks and finally asked a friend to order online for me. We tried it earlier but when we wanted to key in the CC details, the server is out on updating status.... wonder what's new in the store? More launching in various countries?
