Personally I find the discount is not worth the trouble simply when comes to warranty they cannot handle it - the best they can do is to send in for you to the authorized service center If you have intention to get from LowYat might as well buy from authorized sellers there or just go over to Lot 10 Machines or 10 mins further to Pavilion Epic Some guys like to buy from LowYat because apps are supplied FOC - of course you know what type of apps you get-lah !! So if your new ipad suddenly freezes or hang for no reason than you know why. I have a friend who bought it RM 100 cheaper plus free apps. MY !! was he happy than . I just ask him is it new set ; he said is new cos the seller guarantee it is. Than I ask him - did you see it is as a sealed unopen set ? NO was his answer. He said seller show him a sealed set. Than I ask him did you take down serial number. NO was his reply. He said the seller ask him come back in half an hour to get it cos he need time to install the free apps - so you can guess how " new" it is. A week later his ipad freeze and he no choice but to factory reset and thus lose all his " free apps". So beware when you buy from 3rd party sellers especially if he offer you cheaper plus freebies apps you and me know the way to attract customers to get an ipad from Lowyat is they offer "free" apps. So much so that they use that as a selling point. If i happen to set my gaze on the ipad, they will offer me prolly cheaper or the same price as machines but then tell me "boy, dont worry i will load alot of good apps for you,all the games or essentials u need will be inside". I will just smile and walk away, or u get some jokers selling more expensive and come and tell u limited stock. Feel like wanna tell them, how many stocks u want, u wait here i go get for you. |

QUOTE(lhongwuh @ Mar 7 2011, 01:30 PM) Noticed that. I would rather pay a bit of premium and play safe  I have the same thinkin too. I rather just buy from machines or apple malaysia store easier. Im pretty sure if he is fishing for depo or full payment, that is gonna be lots of cash in there To those who gets their ipad 2 good luck, those that doesnt, good luck too. Deal which is too good to be true. |

QUOTE(XiuKeong @ Mar 12 2011, 11:20 PM) Cheaper by a lot after adding all the accessories. And few article said most apps cannot fully maximize the performance of the iPad. Is it true? cannot fully maximize the performance for iPad 1 or iPad 2. I also thinking which to get, if only they had stock in hand at the retail shop then i wont come back and think. Lol I enter the apple malaysia website and saw iPad 2. Now thinking which 1 i want. Hmmm |

QUOTE(nickygin @ Mar 17 2011, 11:47 AM) Reading books and graphic novels are my main iPad usage. I normally read before I sleep so it's the same as reading a hardcover book in terms of weight. However, I find the iPad more user friendly because I can prop it against my pillow if I get too lazy to carry it and it can fit a whole library of books in it which is excellent when I'm on the move. What casing are u using? I do alot of bedtime reading lately. Lol |
