Hi, just got myself an iPad.

Want to ask, what is the solution to extend windows 7 desktop display with an iPad?

I found the apps 'iDisplay'. Unfortunately, it only support windows xp and Mac os.

Any advise?

Bro, you have 2 options:
1. download Facebook for iPhone, upload with that apps. This is the way I use to upload photos.
2. Get yourself 'social for the ipad' apps under category networking. It shall works.

P.s. I'm currently using 'friendly Facebook browser'. Nice apps but does not support upload photo.

Another cool thing i like this apps is you can upload the movie file from your pc to the ipad over wifi. Just open up your Internet browser with a unique ip given from the apps and upload.

Previously I thought the same like you.

Do remember that you'll need to pay around 6.5% GST (government sales tax) on the spot when you get it from us. I got mine at 499 + 35 usd. It's not cheap after all.

This is good explanation. I'm using the same quality sp and find it reduces the quality display of an iPad comparing to my friend's iPad using normal sp. My finger sweat a lot, so I have to use this kind of sp.

Reading on iPad is important to me. I could stay on and iPad for 3 hours straight. So this sp kind of match me.

Nowadays some device support wifi thetering. My friend's samsung wave works perfectly to pair with the iPad wifi. Good thing is sometimes i share his connection too.

Btw, iPhone can do this too if you jailbreak + install mywi.

Try setting, audio setting, then audio stream index.

Do you face 'crash out to home screen' problem with your current mod?

I personally own iPad and iPhone 3G. iPad still works fine at 10+ mb memory, but iPhone 3G would be freaking lag. Which means A4 processor does matter.

Plus, if you read most of the iPad apps, you'll find that most apps get updated due to apps crash issue.

I tested the famous 'things' and 'manage'. 'Things' first impression to me is, 'crash out to home screen' when I input my very first task.

'Manage' so fast so good.

FYI, I rollback to os3 when I'm using ios4.0.1 for my iPhone. Really cannot stand it.

Anyway, iPad is my savior, running wifi at both office and home. Trying to conduct my daily mobile work activities on my iPad like push email, contacts and calendar. Both my idivices get synced together either way I input my activity.

Any microsoft exchange user around?

Forget to mention, the highest available memory while you doing nothing, like just restarted, your iPad actually left 160+ mb ram. Just like iPhone 3GS. But the a4 processor does matter and much stable than iPhone.

If you have 1 push email account, it would left around 140-150mb ram.

When I'm running the 'friendly facebook browser' it will goes down to 60-70mb left due to temporally memory needed to store the internet cache.

Not too low until 10+mb la. I rarely go until that hardcore.

No difference on the ram usage whether you jb it or not. You can google around, some says faster as some pro users go beyond jb like hacking the system, over clock, etc...

This is one good tip. Some friend of mine just don't click the cross button after they open more than 5 tabs.

Added on September 13, 2010, 1:33 amI'm sorry to say, you need to jb + activate sbsettings to perform this task.

I just did a test run, having clock radio, push email, friendly facebook browser running at background while answering you now in safari, the memory left 43mb. Still working smooth. No worry. As I said, even if goes down to 10mb memory, you still won't feel lag as this is using a4 processor. Worst case is the the iPad will kill all apps and back to home screen only.

Took the screen shot. Can only think of upload to facebook to show you if you insist.

Btw, bro. I don't think you need to worry about this la since you don't do multitasking. iPad does not support that unless you jb+ activate backgrounder.

I think your full charge would be like 4-6 hours at least?

Yeah, my Flipboard has the same issue. Can't play the video, too.

Anyone here manage to play the video?

You'll be able to know by looking at this thread.

FYI, iPad uses 10watt charger, iPhone uses 5 watt charger.

Malaysia do not sell iPad officially. Those selling in the shopping centers are mostly jacked up price.
Try get it from this forum. Price around 1800 to 2000 to get a 16gb iPad.

this is common issue that most of us here facing, including myself.
