Well, one of the reason is to keep my blog alive (lol)
Second thing is I will start sharing some of the IT news from now on :p
People always thought go buy from foreign country is cheaper..
but did you counted the shipping fees, tax & so on?
but actually Malaysia local price ain't that expensive either (thanks to RM is growing :P)
take a look

Do note that above prices are taken directly from each respective website which is inclusive or exclusive of its local taxes required by its government.
After currency conversions, you see that our local price is just a little, more expensive than the US by just RM 22.
One of contributing factors would be the strengthening of Ringgit Malaysia against the dollar, which makes US goods supposedly cheaper.
In the South East Asian region, Malaysians are getting it cheaper. Even surprisingly when compared to our Singaporean neighbour which they had to fork out about RM100 extra.
So, stop complaining or comparing with foreign countries, as we already got pretty low price here :D

Move aside Justin Bieber, it's iPad 2's turn to turn Malaysians into frenzy mode.
Apple did it again as thousands of iPad fans thronged its stores around the Klang Valley on 30th April[yesterday] to get their hands on the new gadget.
The launch of the 10-inch touchscreen device, which was first announced in the United States on March 2 by Apple chief executive officer Steve Jobs, was eagerly anticipated.
At Mid Valley Megamall and Sunway Pyramid, fans had gathered early 6AM in the morning. Some hyper-enthusiasts even CAMPED OVERNIGHT at the shopping malls.
All units were sold out WITHIN AN HOUR after the stores opened. At the Machines outlet, an Apple premium reseller in Mid Valley Megamall, 600 units were sold while at Harvey Norman on the lower ground floor, all 50 units were snapped up.
The launch also attracted broadband service providers like YES and Maxis to send promoters to get the proud iPad2 owners to sign up for their packages.

Then, I will get them on sales & sell to those iFags Apple fans(lol), I could had earned some extras by doing so. (xD)
