I don't wanna engrave in case I need to resell it. Also another reason I ordered online is that our local Apple reseller don't have the unit for at least 2 weeks. X-(

i bought my ipad2 yesterday via online with my name engraved on it. i lost my ipod touch during cheng meng back at my home town, no idea who took it. i suspect my cousins from hometown la because they never touched an apple product b4 and they got addicted the first day i lend it to them. so in future if he say he bought an ipod touch i also cant point fingers at him because there is no proof its mine . ):

I order on 29 Apr, so got delivery date set to 20th May (ships out on 16th).

I think the longer you wait to order, the further the ship/delivery date.

Well how do you know? Rich people like you don't spend time around garage sales to see the demand, and you are not even aware of Apple products' resale value. whistling.gif

bcoz when i buy something , i dont ever think of resale value... if u think of resale value , ur thinking whether the next buyer will like ur thing , and u will buy something u don't like , juz to accommodate ppl

fyi , i nvr buy 2nd hand thing , unless its a property ...

Guess what? Some of us do think about it.

I might or might not sell iPad 2, but I do like to have the option of selling it off if I need too.

And we don't really care if you never buy 2nd hand thing. That's your choice! But you make yourself looking like a pompous d-bag because you insult people for discussing about reselling their device.

No doubt you were born with a silver spoon.

actually....all of u who alwiz think bout second value even haven get the stuff...i think tat's the mentality that most of us do...but if are part of apple family which have all of their stuff by collection..wouldnt it b better??..
I'm not a fan of Apple products. Never even brought anything from Apple until now with the iPad 2. But like I said, I would like to have the option of selling it in case the iPad 2 fails to fulfill my needs.

i think ipad resale value will never b as high as iphone....
Maybe not, but it still can fetch for a pretty good price depending on the buyer & timing.

some of us choose to engrave something on it for the stuff they are proud of......

I choose not to and mainly due to potential resell, plus I don't see the point of engraving when I'm going to cover the entire unit with a full body case.
