Worry not! More than one of the attendees are there with their Macbook Pros.

Otherwise, the next best solution? Head upstairs to Machines, borrow their iMac and activate there. Easy peasy!

Added.

I still remember you! Good to meet you again too. Added!

Excellent! I'll add that in to the stuff you can get at the Gathering. Cheers bro for the sponsorship!

Question: how many?

Awesome! We can make it as the prizes for the multiplayer matches we can have later. You be the judge and jury, can present to the winner too! Have Beavis68 snap pics!

Another great opportunity here, from our resident sifu, Hanxz! His services are paid most of the time, but only at the Gathering, he's providing it free! Cheers Hanxz!

Dunno yet. Depends on the crowd. Can always purchase on the spot using WiFi and download from there.

Wait......you don't mean the...... That's mighty generous of you!

I am just organizing this meetup, guys. As for the giveaways, we all have to think of some way to actually let it go as, a prize, a freebie, what-have-yous.

I think someone else have to step in and think up of the tournaments/multiplayer matches/ contest part of this Gathering.

Added! As for your request, I'll try and see if I can find the AT&T sim card. That card is from my old iPhone 2G purchase, so I'll have to dig around.

I'm already here. A bit crowded so we may have to squeeze among ourselves. iPad plugged in to power point, anticipating a long day/night today.

Everybody's welcomed. I brought my WiFi only unit, so you can try your hands on that. And once you're poisoned enough to get one, you can always ask ksc_3688 to get one for you.

Where got racun, I'm just here using my iPad to browse forum only. *prepares the most venomous toxic potion in the background*

Thank you everyone for coming! I wasn't expecting the huge turnout, I counted 22! Wow! Thanks for the support, guys!

I hope everyone gets to know everyone else and we can all be more than Judy passing acquaintances. The whole idea of the Gathering is to pool like-minded folks and share resources and help each other when the situation arises.

Hanxz bro, I hope your MBP is alright. I'd kill myself if anything happens to my Mac! Freaking awesome to see familar faces like Corvinux, Frozzbyte, Harmeet, MaxPC and Beavis68. Equally fantastic to see new faces and make new friends, you're all just awesome! I hope the event was informative and fun for you guys!

Those with cameras please post what pics you have. Appreciate the privacy option of blurring my face out pls.

With that, I can safely say mission accomplished!

LOL, I'm good at remembering names so that I can remember who I owe favours from and and who I'm in debt with. Thanks again for coming!

Beavis did all the hard work there, I just get everyone in one place to meet.

I just get everyone in one place, you guys are the one making it happen.

Enjoy your Apple iPad Case, and lol yeah, that "dance speaker" is called the Sony Rolly.

Glad you can come bro, you've been frequent "lepaker" with me since the iPad Tumpang.

Not a problem, bro! Nice to see you again! Now, about that promise you made about getting the iPad in 2 months time.......

Not a problem, bro. Thank you for coming and the prize sponsor offer too!

Thanks for coming too! Did you change the screen protector to PowerSupport?

Glad it was fun and informative for you. You and Hanxz seems to know each other, long acquaintance kah?

Thank you for coming, bro. Nice meeting you too! I'm so jealous of your Panny GF-1!

Relieved to hear that. Remember to pass me the details on that shooting range expedition you did in Phnom Penh. Email addy you got, right?

Beavis will be posting them here. He's editing them as we speak.

Thanks for coming bro! I guess after this, all iPad owners will be thinking of switching to the method we're carrying our iPads in, cross-body-man-purse-satchel-sling-style!

Thanks for coming, bro! Confirm my bro knows you. Now I have THREE Maxis insiders! Oiiii, itu We Rule Kingdom bila mau naik level!

@ frozzbyte
Exactly! The whole objective of the Gathering is to network, so that we all can rely on each other's strengths to help one another on getting our Apple-related stuff (of non-related if that so happens) affordably and expeditiously. It also helps others make informed decisions on which accessories to get, which apps to download, and especially to see if the iPad fits into their daily routine or not before the purchase is made.

@Dannygeni
Thank you for coming, and your generosity for the 4x free 500MB data pack.

@Shahir
No problem boss! You're the perfect example of older generation finding the iPad a perfect fit for your daily usage. Elements Apps dah habis update belum? 1GB ++

@ksc_3688
Thank you for sponsoring the prizes as well. Perfect gift for the iPad protection!
