hey guys, apple online store US, is that just for US customers, or overseas customers also can purchase?

i'm currently in australia, and its like 80 USD more expensive. wondering if can order direct from US online store and get it posted here?

any idea how much is the postage gonna cost and will there be any other extra charges?

For me the price is reasonable and cheaper compare to last year ipad, due to the strong aussie currency.
Suggest you just buy in Australia, because you have to pay for the shipping to the US and also bear the risk if you used USPS.
Anyway I managed to score one today. First time queuing for an Apple gadget, took me 45 mins from start to payment after they released it a 5pm.
Didn't take leather because possible discolouring when in contact with other things. Too bad red colour only comes in leather.

wifi or 3g?
skype can use 3g? if i recall last time can't skype using 3g correct?

if you have an iphone or other phone that has tethering capability and compatible with the ipad and data plan you can tether it with your ipad wifi.
best to have an iphone since it will work out of the box.
And also I heard if you tethered it, you will get gps as well with the ipad wifi, thus one of the reason i took wifi model only cause i seldom used my iphone data plan and wifi is everywhere where i am planning to use it most of the time.

hi all pro, newbie here.
would like to ask
1. how come when i wan to sync music or video itunes keep pop up ask me to remove all apps n file? how to solve this?
2. y i cannot charge ipad thru laptop or pc? is there any setting to set?

1. Is your computer authorized to play the content you bought with your itunes account? If not authorized do that and see how it goes, make sure you backup your files.
2. IF your ipad is not used aka in sleep/standby mode, it will be charged but slowly.

is it worth enough to buy ipad 2 just for skype use?
*
Not now, currently skype official app is running native default size to iphone size but ipad can use the app only not full screen.
Suggest you buy a phone instead that supports skype and is 3G capable.

hi bros, may i know if iPad / iPad2 iOS can run parallels/bootcamp for window softwares?
*
No cannot.
IF you see a screen shot that shows ipad runnning win software, usually it is a VNC application aka remote desktop apps to a PC computer.
