Rumors are still rumors. I suggest you look into these claims with some thought in mind.
- Who really wants to hold a 9.7-inch, 0.7 kg camera for more than 3 seconds?
- USB ports? The iPad is not a computer, mind that.
- Retina Display is plausible though.
- If you have kept up with recent tech news, Steve himself has said that things smaller than 9-10 inches are goners.

Frankly, i'd wait. Apple should announce the new iPad by January, ships by March, and should arrive at our shores by May or June, assuming everything falls into place nicely.

@CalvinCLK,
Yes. Should be here by then. Now that the iPad has been brought in to Malaysia, SIRIM can't give excuses as to why their approval process is delayed.
IMO, Apple should have learnt from their past experience that they should provide more supply to counterweigh demand.

@Mackiddo,
If you say Malaysia is a "dumping place", how would you explain the other 10 countries who received the iPad the same time as we did?

@Mackiddo,
The iPhone 4 was simply just our telcos effing up with Apple the time 3G and 3GS came around. Too focused on the money.
The iPad delay is just due to demand outweighing supply, IMO.

@Mackiddo,
Hats off to LunaTik. I did not get the LunaTik for now, due to some financial restraints. Simply said, LunaTik is the best strap your nano could get.


p/s: sorry for that thread hijack. i was being passionate about it. if you wanna ask anything bout the strap, ask me at the iPod nano thread.

@xaw5126,
You realize that you've just created a new term?
McGeekvers..? This is going in the books. ;p
