QUOTE(dvlzplayground @ Aug 13 2010, 01:57 PM) i used to share my 3g connection (from laptop with maxis/celcom bb, share to ipod touch) before. it IS really really slow I am sharing Maxis BB 3G from the iMac to the rest of the house, it really depends when you're connected, I usually get fast connections but sometimes it's slow. I think the problem is Maxis not sharing itself but then again I don't use a mifi. |

OK quick rundown on sales taxes in the US for those questions floating around. Sales taxes are charged if the seller has a presence in the buyer's billing state and if the buyer's state charges sales tax. Several states in the US do not charge sales tax, Oregon is one of them. Put your billing address as someplace in Oregon (or any of the other ones) and you won't be charged sales tax.
Note you do not need a VPN with iTunes, Amazon MP3 and Kindle store used to require VPNs but I'm not sure now, Hulu and Netflix still requires VPN. How do I know the above? I'm a long time resident of the US. Good luck! |

QUOTE(idesmond @ Nov 10 2010, 02:34 AM) I have one question, is the ipad considered a computer in the eyes of the government? Im asking this is because im wondering if i can get my tax rebates next year or not by claiming the ipad. The iPad is not released here yet so can the government officially say what it is?  Once it's released you can probably check the import documents to see what it's categorized as no? |
