Grey Market iPads In Malaysia

iPads are already being sold by private sellers in Malaysia even as Apple announced that overseas shipment of iPads will be delayed due to a misjudged of demand for the device in the United States.

I am eyeing an iPad myself too and am weighing the advantages and disadvantages of an iPad with a netbook, although both are just as handy. Also, I already own an iPhone and have no plans to upgrade to a newer model since I would rather just buy a new device.

However, even though the iPad (the 16GB WiFi version) has already landed on Malaysian shores and are being sold at between RM2400 to RM2900 (the retail price of the iPad in the United States is currently RM1,600 before tax), I think it would be advisable to wait for the iPad to be shipped to Malaysia legally and officially. It would mean your device will be backed by official warranty by Apple too.
