If the set is not from SEA region, (US sets costs less because of forex rate), it'll come with the 2-pin power adaptor.

It's a small inconvenience for me personally, i would say.

I reckon RM900/950 not a problem.
If you're not thinking of making a profit i can refer to some forumers who are looking to buy before CNY.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there's Google Maps for iPad yet.

Only iPhone.

queryUSSD on Cydia, search for USSD in the App Store. There are a few free apps, which may or may not work with Malaysia telcos.

When using the smart cover lock, sometimes it has delay. Anyone has this problem?

When the iPad mini is in a deep sleep mode (inactive for couple of hours), yes.
Or when it's busy running apps in the background too. It's normal.

hey guys, im going to buy ipad mini 3g, what should i check when open the box?

hope to check before bought it, to prevent any unwanted issue happen XD

Are you buying new from authorized reseller or used?
If used, I'd usually check for the authenticity of the power adaptor and cable. Some unscrupulous seller will swap them out for non-originals.

Also, check for dead pixels on the screen.

Guys, why I can't find Smart Cover auto lock/ unlock setting for my iPad mini?
*
The Smart Cover Auto Lock / Unlock toggle will only appear when you use a compatible Cover/Case with the feature for the first time.
If you don't see it, that means you're not using a smart cover, or the cover does not have the feature.

For those who prefer to buy from retail than Apple online, you can try EpiCentre @Fahrenheit88. The location is a little secluded, with very low walk-in traffic.

Plenty of stock in store. When i was there last Saturday, almost all models and colors are available.

The service is impeccable. Look for Samuel. Or the sweet young chinese salesgirl. Both provides excellent customer service.

I visit a reseller last week, enquire for ipad mini.
When talking of on site replacement if found any flaws on the ipad mini, firstly they ask me to send to service centre.

I argue with them on this, then they allow for immediate replacement on the faulty unit.

Talking about the scratches and dents. Initially they just allowed for replacement if the unit is found dent on spot. again, another arguing, they agree for replacement on major scratches unit.

Finally talk about dead pixel, they mention that only dead pixel more than 6 pixel can be replaced on spot. 6 Pixel is totally unacceptable  mad.gif . I wonder how they do business. this is totally not fair for consumer.

This happened to me. I bought an iPad mini last week. Didn't activate in store, as I always like to unbox new gadgets at home. When I finally switch it on and activate, I realized there were 3 dead pixels.

So I went back the next day to claim DOA. It was handled professionally by the staff, and I got my replacement unit. They did not dispute the defects, nor try to downplay the issue with me.
If you research the web regarding Apple's policy on dead pixels, for iPhone is 1 and above, iPad is 3 and above, notebooks / desktops are 7 and above.

UPDATE:
The unofficial, Apple internal policy guidelines for dead pixels:

Hey guys,

I am having an extra 64G + cellular ipad mini (brand new) to let go as I am having 32G Wifi with me. Interested can PM me..

Currently is using ios 6.0, planning to upgrade to 6.1.2..
Any idea to do it? Coz the latest is ios 6.1.3..
*
There's no way to restore to 6.1.2 anymore. Apple has stopped signing as of March 19. You can only go straight to 6.1.3 or stay at 6.0.
If you're interested to sell off the 64GB LTE, just post at the notebook/tablet sub forum. It won't take longer than 24 hours if the price is reasonable.
