i have 1 q ..
lets say i have a laptop and the only way i can surf the net is with the usb broadband from maxis thingy
so can i share dat internet connection between my laptop and the ipad ??

get a MiFi or buy a 3G enabled Ipad and i would advice you to buy the former cause nowadays MiFi can support up to 7.2Mbps and 3G only 3.6Mbps ( i stand to be corrected ,k)

okay i mean even ipad is tech things but it still drop dramatically if new product launch...

look at it this way..........

you buy any version of Ipad's to enjoy its technology, if you die suddenly( like in a tsunami), you would hav ady enjoyed playing with Tech

if you buy gold, and if you die suddenly your next of kin will own your gold, biggrin.gif

so you ask yourself wat will you buy?

btw, i am not rich, i sav my money on other expenses to buy my ipad like i dun smoke,i dun gamble, i dun "cheong" and i dun mabok and dun go clubbing brows.gif brows.gif

We are talking bout iPad bro, technology stuff...look at the price of the iPad now, it drops right after the iPad 2 announced. Do you think I can still sell my well kept iPad 16GB Wifi 1 gen at RM1600 if the iPad 3 announced? Probably RM500 only but it's better than nothing to fund for the ipad3 by that time...smile.gif
*
i mentioned "you might" meaning maybe, but if its well kept, and some collector is willing to buy, who knoes...........because by then Ipad1 is no mote in production and maybe ipad2 suks and ipad3 have smaller screen, then ppl will go for the ipad1 by then............

tell me sincerely, do u like the ipad1 now? if u compare ipad1 to the Galaxy Tab, ipad1 beats it in terms of screen size thumbup.gif

Yes, I loves my iPad 1 very at the moment, I think my wife, my daughter and my lappy started get get jealous coz I been playing with it too much...lol. Galaxy Tab? In terms of mobility, it beats iPad and the screen are superb with rich contrast and vibrant colors. The downside of Galaxy Tab is, the OS is like a newer Windows mobile and so plastically feel. Maybe I get use with the touch technology from apple since I bought the iPhone 1 gen few years back, I still felt that the touch and swipe sensitivity and accurracy beats all the touch screen gadget out there..anyway it's just my own opinion. smile.gif
*
i agreed with you tat with the Galaxy Tab, u can just slide in into your Bermuda 3/4 pants and go anywhere with it but with an Ipad, u hav to carry an "aloong" bag tongue.gif

but to some ageing eyes, the Ipad provide better reading confort

It shows no charge right?

So far only Mac does or really high powered USB port. smile.gif
So I only use the wall charger, works like charm.
*
usually, if you connect the usb into the notebk usb port, it wont charge the ipad

even when i connect it into my Dell desktop front usb, it too wont charge BUT when i connect it to the back ( CPU back usb port) it charge thumbup.gif
usually Desktop back usb port provide more power,

the most recommendable way of charging is via 10W wall plug, remember not less than 10W cause it will degrade the battery if u use a lower wattage wall plug icon_idea.gif

Not less than 10W? When we plug into our iPad to the PC's laptop for iTunes Sync and it gives us the "Not Charging" word, it's actually does charge the iPad but in a very slow speed. So it means that if we plug in too many times to our PC's, will it degrade more faster to the iPad battery?
*
how long do u keep plugging in the Ipad into the "non-charging" port? if its just for awhile to update/sync , i guess it should be okay. and if u intends to plug in for a long time , u better plug it into a "charging " back USB port

Queued up 12 hours yesterday 6am-6pm and 4 hours today 4am-8am at the Perth apple store and this is the result:

Loving the iPad 2 so far.. Camera is nothing to shout about coz the quality sucks but speed improvement is what I like most... Everything's much snappier, including typing, loading websites, launching apps... Hope this stays this way when i fill it up with media coz for now it's still relatively empty, gotta get back home before syncing with itunes.. Cant comment much on speaker quality coz i havent taken off the plastic wrapping tongue.gif waiting til i can get a proper protector/skin for the back..

Upgrading from iPad 1 to iPad 2 is like moving from 3G to 3GS.. Not necessary but you won't regret it at all.. Plus, white is frickin sexy!

SELL me one unit please

Singapore launch date is April, actual date not confirm. price same as US launch

Malaysia should be latest by June, price maybe a bit lower than SG cause we are getting it slower.

The lower in price is due to stiff competition from Motorola Xoom launch.

From what I know US seem to be the cheapest among all currently. Denmark is the most expensive.

my bro email me the price of a Ipad + smart cover + tax based on conversion rate of USD1 = RM3.02


wifi 16G RM 1,801
wifi 32G RM 2,133
wifi 64G RM 2,464
3g 16G RM 2,232
3g 32G RM 2,564
3g 64G RM 2,895


HOWEVER, it is speculated tat Malaysian price may be cheaper due to Sales Tax and Recycle Fee will not be added into the selling price
