After all the hype and the suspense leading up to yesterday night (Malaysia time), Apple finally launched their very own Tablet PC. Aptly named the iPad, it’s what most netizens would call an enlarged version of the iPod Touch/iPhone.

For people like myself who spend a lot of time online using their iPhone, this would be a tempting new ‘toy’ to play with. After all, it comes with a bigger screen meaning you can read/view things without constantly scrolling left and right to read texts on websites. The iPad will also be giving Amazon’s Kindle DX a run for it’s money as the iPad is able to give readers the chance to view materials in full color compared to the Kindle’s non-color, limited function device. The 16GB model is only USD$10 more than the USD$489 kindle too! (more…)

Now that iPhone finally came into Malaysia no thanks to the slow moving Maxis, users would be looking at all the applications that’s available for the device right? Now, unless your iPhone’s jailbroken, you’d have to practically pay anything from USD0.99 upwards for the games and apps. But have no fear, there are also some free ones that’s available for download into the phone.

Just want to share some of the ones I like and uses. You could also download these applications if you have the iPod Touch too. After all, these Apps are FREE!
