expat Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I just bought an iPad. It's great, but it would be much better if I had an ipod and/or iphone--it's almost like they go together. Long and short of it, I'll probably sell it. It's the model with no 3G and 32 gigs of ram. Any idea what I should sell it for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous God Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Does it come with the printer as in the other thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expat Posted June 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I saw something on Thaivisa about the ipad being sold at MBK--looks like I can get what I paid for it pretty easy, and perhaps a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseafan Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I get the Ipod....I get the Iphone....but come on....the Ipad is just a marketing gimmick, for that sort of money you could get a top of the range PC/Laptop and still have change. I suspect that those who have bought the Ipad will soon realise what a waste of money it is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pom Michael Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 But then you would have a PC or Laptop, right? But people who are buying (2 million sold so far) - probably already have a PC or Laptop (any idea of the %) and specifically want a Tablet type of device. I'm only waiting for the next generation or a competitive model. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 This is the 250 THB upgrade of my iPhone to iPad Does Not Support Flash No USB Ports No Camera / Webcam For light portability I still prefer an Asus Netbook at half the price and just "Tether" my iPhone for Internet connection if wireless not available.

expat Posted June 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I agree with the criticisms, but when you get it in your hand, it's a nifty device with tons of cool gimmicks to keep people amused. It's also excellent for showing pictures. I may just keep it as a guilty pleasure, but I'll probably just sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseafan Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Thats exactly my point, its great for gimmicks and fun but it has no phone, no camera, cant be upgraded and probablt has a shitty battery life if I know Apple... On the plus side, it does look cool I would love to know what margins Apple are making on this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobbledonk Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Went into town to check out the iPad in store, but couldnt get near it for kiddies playing with the two demo units - I expect that the rest were out the back in anticipation of the demand for the thing. I'll wait till the madness dies down and take a closer look, but my old Macbook Pro still does most of what I need it to do. Wouldnt mind reading a book on a plane or similar using the iPad, but most of the other cool stuff (the Google Maps app looks great) relies on an active Net connection so I'm not sure just how versatile the thing is for use on a plane - happy to hear otherwise.
