Order directly from their website. It is sent by airmail - so far I have no issues on receiving it. Intact I also buy a lot of stuffs from EBay for the past 5-6 years too - never encountered any lost in transit.  I have purchase small items ( stylus, batteries ) to bigger ticket items PDA, smartphones and even a 15" notebook . Most of the purchases I received between 7 to 10 days. If you wish to purchase stuffs online and worry about this , it is best you do not do it. Anyway if the seller is reputable , he will replace any lost in transit item to you. Check his ratings before you buy. If buying from established online like Brando, PDAair, Expansys, Amazon no need to worry at all

i bought few leather case from pdair too..so far all received.. but i got lost few items which i bought from ebay before.. i did a claim thru paypal.. so far got the refund back if receive the item after 30days, unless i forgot to file a claim thru paypal tongue.gif maybe sgp mail more effective than msia sad.gif tats why i scare off a bit if the item more than rm100 above.. if lose mean gone.. sad.gif

The other day, I saw an Ah Beng holding a Samsung Galaxy Tab like a folder while making a telephone call with it. He looked very business-like and 'busy' with his new toy. If he was using a bluetooth headset, its acceptable but a pair of headphones?

That definitely pushed me towards the apple camp if that is the best Android can do.

lol, go ahead to Apple camp, couldn't care less here,
but mind you, its not like the iPad is any better, it doesn't even support calls to begin with.

SGT is a tablet which just happens to be able to make phone calls as well.
the SGT does support bluetooth headset, but its his business on how he wants to use his SGT.

if you want to judge Android, just based on this sight alone, then there really isn't much to talk about.

The thing is, we can 'choose' how we want to use it the way we like, not because we being 'forced' by Samsung to do so like a certain manufacturer. whistling.gif

hi guys, i was looking at the plan offer by digi and maxis.

any reason for me to buy from shop without plan instead of digi/maxis with plan?

shop is selling like rm2399 right? with plans offered, it seems like a better deal?

Celcom.Axiata : Allow my 2 sen opinion . I am a ipad user ( 64GB 3G ) for 8 months since May2010. Frankly I still feel until today iPad is overhype. I am , you can say quite a Apple fan. I have following Apple products which I bought for myself and family : Still with me - iMac, 2 MacBook Pro, 1 MacBook Air, 1 White MacBook, 2 iPhones 3Gs and lastly iPad ( which I just sold off as none of my children wants it).

Being a gadget freak, and an expensive hobby of mine I always like to try new gadgets. I will go to all lengths paying a high premium just to test it and I have no qualms selling it off later at a big loss if I don't like it. It is an expensive hobby which I must say is within my budget. Allow me just to say those who buy the TABs definitely have a purpose and they feel the TAB meet their needs.

My NEEDS for a tablet is just that it should be versatile enough and allows me to customize and offers great portability. I have replace the iPAD with the latest MBA 11" as I find it meets all my computing needs out of home while the iPad only fulfill 50% of it. The iPad do nbot meet my portability and work creation needs. However I find the TAB does. This does not mean the iPAD is not good just it did not fulfill my needs

The keypoint here is NEEDS not WANTS. I would like to buy the latest Mercedes S Class or BMW 730i - that is my want. But do I really need it as my average mileage is only max 5 km/day and a monthly KL or Spore trip. YES I will if it is my need to show off my prestige and wealth or I just just have too much money, don't know how/where to spend it. For a car my NEED is simple - just a means of reliable, economical transport. So even I can afford it, to me a 1.6 to 2.0 litre car is sufficient and GOOD for my needs

Your comment about the user and your conclusion is strange. Firstly the TAB is a tablet ; its additional phone functions is a bonus as I always say. Most guys who buy the TAB will use it primary as a tablet. How one wishes to use it as as aphone is his choice. If he wants to hold it highup to his ear or allow the speakerphone to blare is entirely his choice. To be discreet he can use a bluetooth headset or wired headset.

To me iPad is overhype.

to be frank, the only reason tab is so great, its due to the size smile.gif can fit in back pocket. and if i buy this, its becos of this too.

i dont think i wanna carry a ipad around with a sling bag or stuff

seriously, the TAB hard ware is great. they should let ppl know this can make phone call la. the moment i knew it can make phone call, it suddenly becomes an iphone killer ( to me la). lol. a combination of iphone and ipad.

I never try as my TAB still only few days old and I have reflash it to a different Europe firmware. . But a user here AdamKing has said he updated his rooted TAB through KIES successfully. After which, he has to root it again as the update removes the root
