Nope. The first time you connect your iPad to your comp with iTunes installed, iTunes will auto detect, open and prompt you to register your iPad for warranty and iTunes account...then it will auto sync and you are good to go...

Well, most of the office apps for iPad is paid apps...official apple apps for the iPad are Keynote, Pages and Numbers...there are others like documents to go etc...

Regarding just to view office files or PDF...there are a few apps you can try...CloudReader for .PDF and USB Disk for .PDF and office files...

Haha about caps...normally i will HOLD THE CAPS BUTTON and type normally...

when is the ipad officially available in malaysia?  my dad seems interested in one, and from what i read, the ipad warranty is not international like the ipod touch

Not anytime soon, by the time iPad comes to Malaysia officially, maybe apple already release iPad 2. So for now, best is still buy from Singapore straight...or from the many LYN members who sells it at the garage sales subforum...

i did play around with iOS4.2 hehe

Ya zhou86, i know that cloudraeder and some other readers does support PDF.
Do u have any idea which support powerpoint and Microsoft Office (xls,doc...) as well?

I dont mind is pay app (but still got to compare the price:))

Well...besides that....i see no extra features from the ipad...hmm...

for RM2k 16GB Wifi...indeed is exp....u really got to hunt around for Spore set is much cheaper ....smile.gif

If you want to only view ms office files...USB disk will do. But to edit them, the best is still pages (for ms word), numbers (excel) and keynote (ms PowerPoint). There are official apple apps and you can open ms office files and edit them, or create new and export them as ms office files...they costs usd9.99 each. You can also try good reader or documents to go...

About OS4.2, it has been announced but only officially releasing on nov later this year...

If you want to transfer photos from your camera to your iPad, you an use the camera connector kit, which you have to buy seperately...

iPad don't have USB port or sd card slot so you cant connect your thumb drive to your iPad or insert a sd card inside...

which surf faster?

1) a 3G enabled Ipad ( meaning utilise a data sim to surf)

or

2) a Wifi only ipad via a WiFi router or MiFi

thx

I think they're both the same (depending on your MiFi and iPad's wifi/3G performance) becoz either way, you will be using the network's 3G coverage...

Correct me if I am wrong here...

Apple's camera connection kit has 2 separate units - one with USB and the other with SD card insert. So you can use the USB unit and plug in your pendrive

Only can transfer photos or you can transfer any file also can?

Hmm bro, if you are in the US, you should have gotten it from the apple store...USD499...for 16gb wifi.

If you listen to lots of songs and watch lots of video on the go...don't think 16gb will be enough for you...

They track via your registration, which is when you first time plug your iPad onto iTunes to register for warranty. That is why its required to register 7 days after your purchase. I think they will track your serial code...which can never go wrong...

Typically from what i see, buying iTunes gift cards from eBay is more expensive they jack up the price......if via pay pal you pay original price then it's cheaper....coz at least with pay pal Msia you can link it with your msian credit card and buy it...if you plan to use the gift card to buy from iTunes USA that is...

Yea, i guess the only way to buy from iTunes US is via the gift card, which you can purchase it online via paypal linked to your Malaysian Credit Card. @.@

I had this problem too. But I found this app which is able to disable and enable back anytime you want...try this link..
http://appadvice.com/appnn/2008/07/how-to-...sabling-backup/

Under the comment section, got a app for you try...

By doing this, you cut short the steps from 5 steps to 3 steps, skipping the backup process. If you want to backup your files, just enable the backup via the app again...
