You can try and google for Time widgets - plenty on the web. You might not get an exact one . Most of these widgets are free
Example this one displayed time, date and location together

What is reasonable ?? Price range ??

Silicon/Resin back covers - budget RM 20 to RM 40 ; mid range RM 50 to RM60 ; high quality RM 120

Casing ( book type ) : Imitation leather PVC  - RM 40 + ; Psuedo leather RM 90+ ; High quality genuine leather RM 180 to RM 220
Check at Garage sales - quite few sellers. Or just go to any PDA shop , plenty choices. Most DIGI centers i see also selling - mainly medium range.

+ Or you can buy Korea Case: http://cgi.ebay.com.my/Samsung-Galaxy-TAB-...=item7913d022cb

Steve Jobs " malu" to say it . At just 256 MB - it is horribly low. when I tested the multitask features with the new ioS4.2 - it does not work too well either - works only with apps that support it. I find that still need to JB it to have better multitasking but than with such a low memory - you still need to close some apps. I was expecting at least a 512 MB ram for the ipad2 - some pundits predicted 1 GB - my were these guys disappointed with such high unrealistic hopes
Anyway ipad2 good for new users to start off with if they want an ipad. Forget about the original ipad. Msian prices,  lastnite all present ipad models price cuts across at RM 400 less. OUch !!! real pain for those who just bought

Lots of people already selling out their ipad also..

Got my GTab last Thursday, and try to flash with signed KM2 but suddenly stuck..... after trying many times finding which firmware has full rom and then managed to flash with Roto-KM2 Full. Will try flash JME later.

If you wish to buy eneloop this is the correct model for the TAB ; you need minimum 1000mA for the TAB

http://www.lelong.com.my/sanyo-eneloop-mob...2-01-Sale-P.htm

I have consider buying this too but opt out for the Yoobao as is much cheaper
BTW I am not a tech expert ; I only love to play with gadgets and I do quite some research before purchasing it and its supporting accessories

You have many options ; look out at garage sales :

http://forum.lowyat.net/MobilePhonesandRelatedAccessories

AP new ranges 1600 to Rm 1800
Original SME ranges about RM 1900 to RM2100
Used sets ranges RM 1500 to RM 1800

Buying AP - look or EURO or Spore sets - less headache when comes to root/flashing new kernels-roms

Prices of Tab has drop. If you want up to 3 years warranty , buy from any SENQ outlets - RM 2199
*
Added some more, if you are looking for Tab with WIFI only version (SME) price will be RM1499.

is there such set?

and also, for rooting, if it's not SG or EUR set how ar?
how to know where the set comes from?

Wifi Only version already available from 15th March onwards. http://www.senheng.com.my/20110301/SH_IT.html

Rooting doesn't restricted with SG or EUR set. Any android device can easily rooted.

I do not know how to exactly identify where the set come from, but if you own it for first time (first hand user). You can look at Firmware version that they used it, DX (It's Malaysia/Asia unit).

Hi Benny888,

Great recommendation. Have always been looking for a battery pack for my devices eg. samsung tab, psp. nds, etc. but not sure which one.

Since you are a tech expert, was wondering if you have checked the SANYO eneloop mobile booster before .... is it suitable in terms of voltage/capacity (voltage of five volts at 500 mA) ?

I own eneloop Mobile booster 5000mAH buy from LYN forumer (http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f=220&t=1694412) (cheaper compare to shop - RM160 when i buy it, now RM17X, Shop price RM2XX). Mobile booster output 500mA x 2 (If charge using 1 usb port can up to 1A output, if charge 2 device it will be 500mA output). It can charge galaxy tab but slower and don't use it while charging. Anything than that, it best as it have 2 usb port for charging 2 device at the same time.

Settings -> Wireless & Network -> USB Setting > Ask on Connection.

If it is driver issue, just make sure your laptop and gtab connected and reboot your laptop. Your laptop should automatically install the driver.

This type of case I spotted at one of LY Plaza shop but the seller sell it at high price. Better import from Korea through eBay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180598983723) it's cheaper.

For those who would want a change in UI - try Spb Shell 3d v 1.01 - the app costs US$14.95 which is much cheaper than the Windows version which costs US$29.95

You get a rotating carousel - you can change the panes of the carousel and allocate the apps and widgets you need ; very customizable
The specs said is not for tablets but works well on the TAB

[attachmentid=2135577][attachmentid=2135579][attachmentid=2135582]

[attachmentid=2135584][attachmentid=2135585][attachmentid=2135586]

Tried the launcher, sadly the application icon can't be place anywhere i like (it automatically arrange). But I like the weather panel. cool!

Just drag the app where you wants it ; it will auto shift the position of other apps

Yup, I know.. But it can't make a gap (no icon or space) like stock/other UI did.
