Guys, my dad says he wants ipad, but i opted to convince him that the Nokia N8 is one heck of the choice he should choose.
The problem is that have anyone of you guys have tried to connect to the LCD display from N8 using the HDMI to a converter to a VGA port at his monitor?

His purpose is for stock market viewing. He said that he always have unused quota for the iphone 3GS and wanted to use in Ipad, but Iphone 3GS is not using the micro sim right?
The issue now lies is that all the monitors he have is old ones and i suppose non of them have the HDMI port, but they have the VGA ports. I was thinking of getting a converter for him and enable him to plug into the computer.
Well, he is going to use it for the stock market viewing purposes. HDMI port can enlarge the view for him.

He is 40 years old plus, so games is out. Microsoft Office he does not even bother to buy for his office use. He just use the open office.
By the way, Ipad 1 seems to be out of stock and Ipad 2 does not have an ETA in Malaysia yet.
ipad la of course...even my oyaji (dad) is 55 now also can use ipad without my guide
my mom more awesome, can rob my ipod touch and go play games
(and screw the vga or whatever projector thingy, just use 2 fingers to zoom la

)
flash? no need la, stock i think no need flash

if 3Gs can view the website so ipad can do also.
and all iphone/ipad use microsim.
so left my n8 and my nikon do snap snap job only
okay stop here for ipad stuff, you can go ipad thread v4 there discuss further
