Q: How does the ipad warranty work in Malaysia?
A: Ipad comes with international warranty. You can just sent in to any authorized apple's service centers . How long the repair/or replacement will depend on the seriousness of the fault . Be prepare to wait up to 1-2 weeks. Note some of the centers are drop points - so it is better sent to center that can process it . If yours is a foreign purchase set - you might need to pay up to RM 60 for service charge ( dependent on seriousness of your ipad's problem )

cheh i to type out the pricing when apple.com store itself has text version.

now i'm thinking 16GB vs 32GB vs 16GB 3G.

so far 16GB 3G is lowest in the pack cos i don't like the idea of getting another data plan.

do you guys find additional 16GB useful? normally what's the size of apps? like say games for instance.

depend what kind of games you wanted to play... so far my biggest apps is not game...it is E-book... 1.7GB.... called "Element" or something...

about the storage it depend what kind of users and how to use it...if you like to store whatever apps then 1TB give you also no use.

If u like to keep all yur stuff in the iPad then 16 Gb is not enuf
If u don't always have access to ur com/ laptop then 16gb not enuf

U can have 50 games but the one u actually play is less than 10 same goes for movies/ music

thanks all. cos i not familiar with iPad, the available apps and what other stuff so the size is an issue. not like computers, i already familiar with typical file sizes and have no issues with buying new hard disks. biggrin.gif

i think time for me to apply the logic similar to the formula used many years back

size you buy = (size you want x 2) + 1 level higher. of course that's not to say i going 64GB la. 32GB looks reasonable enough.
