I will probably buy it anyway. Ipad for light leisurement while outside the house.. like waiting your number at JPN, paying saman at Balai polis, bank etc, etc... Laptop for works and heavy games at home.. or in office.
It'll work, I guess...

u mightself just get an iphone4. small compact and pocketable once u reach ur turn. ipad is pretty irrelevant. well, if iphone didnt exist, den ipad might be pretty tempting.

Preferably it touches more on the entertainment side.

It's really for leisure. I for one only use it mostly for surfing and games.

Emails and etc, other devices =D

I thought the pdf viewer is a pleasure on the iPad. Hmmm, i wonder how good is the HTC HD2 if its is 100x better than the iPad.

A lot of people buy ipad for games.  My advise is don't buy iPad for games.  I like playing games and I have Xbox360 and PS3 and PSP etc.  But i can tell you that iPad games are very simple and not very fun after a while.  Its good for like 30 mins and you won't play it anymore kind of thing.  It s really great if you're in a subway or an airport which a short and simple game can really help kill time, but if you are looking for "real" games, you will likely be disappointed.

But short and simple games can be very good for my kids and my wife so it really depends.
the games are cheap, simple and fun. It's all made to be simple.

Wednesday I just start using my iPad and have quite a few games. In fact I only started fiddling with it late afternoon / early evening and I've already finishsed Air Attack HD (finger hurts now). Spent loads of time on NFS:Hot Pursuit and Sim City. Then Thursday installed Infinity Blade and already settled God King, now just random playing it for fun when I'm bored. Rather tired of it already. Angry Birds HD also finished 1st Chapter and skip to #3 cos I already done so on my other device. Red Alert installed, lazy to play. RTS just seems a little awkward on iPad. Monkey Island 1 and 2 installed but not yet played, ahh the nostalgia - one of the better titles around.

I think it really depends on how demanding you are, I do appreciate simple games as such but it's really sucky for FPS, at least i find it sucky. Even playing FPS on consoles seem to be much better.

*yes, it is clear that I can get bored with just having only ONE game on the iPad, hence the choice of games I installed.

For me, I think iPad's great for books and educational stuff. Very helpful. Using it for social networks (eg Twitter / Facebook) is great too!

In short, iPad is just a bigger version of the iPhone except it couldn't make calls smile.gif If you love iPhone games, you will somehow love the iPad games or perhaps even more.

expect new one coming out first quarter next year, well that is if you can wait... and it wouldn't be coming out in Malaysia immediately also I suppose.. I read a news months ago that they have a reliable source from China stating that the new iPad would be 7inch.. But I still hope that it won't shrink lol..

wekk,

If you compare phone to phone basis, definately HTC is better than iPhone. Try exclude appstore from iPhone or iPad....its nothing....

HTC`market place aka appstore needs a lot to catch up to its counterparts.....

I store my business catalogues into iPad but alas, it didnt work....

I have prearrange like 500pdf in over 100 sub folders... I just select the main folder and the sub folder shall copy 100% into my HTC(window based)

and I need to do it one by one in iPad.... :/ and the minimum RAM(256) makes it crash when I open of say 15-20MB of pdf file

now i only use my ipad for leisure.... definately not for the pro n elite user
