Is it really multitasking when most apps are not updated to work with multitasking yet? Apps like Pulse News Reader simply loads up again when you select it from the multitask bar, so technically it's not 'running in the background', right?
*
because older apps were designed wif multitasking in mind. However, developer can just update it to support multitasking if they want.

frankly quite disappointed with the 4.2.1 upgrade, nothing special, multitasking is nothing new, still took me ages to backup (it took more than 3 hours to backup the ipad and there isn't much data in it to begin with - they should fix that backup problem)

there is no proper way to exit an app other than to hit the home button....then it lies in the background using up precious memory and battery i suppose....and u have to close it manually.

and now the side lock become the mute button..... doh.gif

when i was trying to lock the screen today, hitting the home button twice, sliding right, pressing the slide lock button, my fren commented that the programmer at apple must be some arcade player - it's like some combo move....  laugh.gif

on the bright side, i stimulated the china economy  laugh.gif

I agree with this. Instead of having to quit the whole program from multitask bar, there should be option for us to close it like b4.

no, what i want is to backup with less time consumed. in itunes you can cancel backup just by clicking the x button.

imma trying to figure out why its taking so long (approx 3 hrs) for backup when there's not much data in the ipad.....some corrupt apps perhaps?
*
first back shud be time consuming. subsequent back up wont take up so much time i assume.

There will be host-by-Maxis iPhone fulfilment (abt 3.5k units), selling of iPad device by AAPR (abt 0.6k units) and data plans event at KL Convention Center next Sat-Mon. That is the info I got from my Maxis insider just now. They'll probably be separate launch events by the different AAPRs with respect to their iPad launches. I know Machines already have their stock allocations, already saw pictures of their stock in boxes stacked high full of iPads.

Take all this with grains of salt, all I have to go with my insiders with no documentations.

Event huh stringfellow? Wanna go there together? im going to kl next week!

Apparently it's not just Malaysia being late in the game.
Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Norway, Poland, Portugal, South Korea, Sweden, and Taiwan just launched their iPads today too.
Good grief. I wonder what explains the delay.

demand outstrips supply i guess.

Dear all buddy here, using iPad happily right now. I got it from sun way this morning, tot that there will be a lot of ppl but no ppl are wiring there, end up I was the 1st waiting at machine haha. Anyway, question comes, How can I close the application totally? But not hide it background? Thx thx, iPad is my 1st apple tongue.gif

The other question is I had download an app from itune, but it seems like waiting only all the while at the menu,is it downloading?  That is just a calculator, not really a big file rite.
*
No simple solution. U have to double tap it and then hold ur fingers on the apps in the multitasking tab and wait until they wobbles then u can close the particular app.

Maybe u r downloading something else? It will give priority to things u have dl earlier.

Yes, because iPad is not like iPhone, iPad can claim its warranty anywhere. smile.gif
It has international warranty.

if iphone is available at apple store here, we can claim the warranty also i guess.

From your signature it shows you are a rich fella. Not all of us can afford what you afford. If i am so rich i definitely will say the same thing

U calculate the value depreciation of your gadgets easily can buy another ipad and few more phones.

Just my opinion. If everyone can afford the hacker wont bother jb lor.

wow, if downloading an app which only costs u usd1 and you are telling claiming the person to be rich, im really speechless. ohmy.gif

I always fail to understand if one can afford to buy a RM 2000+ gadget, why one cannot afford to pay for apps software which cost Rm3 to RM10 generally?? It is not like he is going to buy a thousand apps .

It is not a matter of rich or poor. It is the mentality that " why pay when you can get it free honestly or dishonestly  ?? This is a disease and a growing one  in many developing economies

It is the same mentality I see in guys willing to spend RM2000 to Rm3000 on a smartphone but cringe when need to spend a maximum  of RM30 on data plan

In my younger days mid 20+ I used to write software and I do feel the pain when it is being copied /modified and use without my approval even though it is free. So I always believe we should support developers - it is a chicken and egg situation. Without support will the developers continue to improve their software ? And dino was right to say , we are talking about few ringgit software not hundreds or thousand ringgit

education really plays an important roles in guiding our next generation. if games cost hundreds i can understand but usd1 game also u wanna get pirated one? gd luck boy, gd luck really.

sigh, not so related to ipad but my friends who own iphone 4 keep blaming their iphone for apps crashing and they have none to blame but themselves because they dont figure out there is one thing called multitasking in iphone. they seemed to be shocked when i pointed out that to them.

another funny thing is when they got their phone they tend to ask the staff to transfer free songs to them and it gets them off the wall then they try to transfer newer songs into their iphones and found out the songs available in their iphones have gone.

seriously, if you dont know how to use iphone and i wanna own one, please know the basic functions. you are not putting the phone into good use if u got an iphone and that is what i call money wasting...

sigh, so many new features in iphone and those showoff wannabes dont know how to utilize them.

if you delete songs in itunes on pc, songs at ipad will be gone bcos itunes will synch both pc and ipad and you will get the same selection of songs on your pc.
