iPad Will Be Here Soon?

5213074357 5b4a5f8816 iPad Will Be Here Soon?

I know it still rumors, but because iPad is something that almost everyone (who loves gadget) wish to have one, I can’t just let it slip from my radar. At least 2 blogs, amanz and mytechnews has reported that iPad will be here soon via Maxis with each both blog provide tentative launch date on 30 December 30 November and 29 November.

You can see the contradict slightly different launch date here, but as they’re getting the info from their own sources, you have to take it with grain of salt, for now. But whenever the launch date is, having this news broke by 2 different sources,  we know this is pretty strong rumors. You can finally get iPad with hopefully reasonable price, as well as affordable data plan.

Looking from the current iPad price trend in the grey market, you can notice that it has gone down pretty steep as of late. It is either competition, weak demand or the possibility of availability of iPad through the official channel, but I guess the later is make more sense now.

On May/June this year, the price of iPad Wifi 16gb version is RM2200 (cheapest that I survey at that time), but when I finally purchase it last month, I got it for only RM1800. That’s the cheapest deal I can found, and I think that is already good price. At that point of time, I haven’t heard any plan/rumors that iPad will be here, but these retailers can sniff something is going to happen and wasting no time to drop the price in order to clear the stock as fast as they can.

Now iPad is almost here, would you get one?

The only caveat is, it is not really working well. From my earlier testing, it doesn’t seems working both on my iPad and iPhone 3GS, although wifi and location service is already enabled. Testing sending message to the target device took about 5 hours to reach the target device as well. Mobile Me will notify you through email when your message accepted by target device. So does it works on your iOS devices?
