The election will ended by tomorrow that 16th April 2011.Something i discovered that funny and very familiar for Apple and Android users.Angry Birds crossover with DAP Sarawak Election icon named "Ubah".
Angry birds had gone.But it's replace by "Ubah" in the screenshot above.I really admitted that the DAP teams really followed the latest youths topic and they're creative as well.
It's so funny and easier arrest the youths attention.However,i'm not voter for this Sarawak Election and can't commented about the election.
Sincerely,blessed Malaysia for a better future =D

Apple has updated its PC and Mac versions of the iTunes desktop all-in-one application for "i" Devices to version 10.2.1 and the major feature is iOS 4.3 compatibility.
Apple announced iOS 4.3 availability and roll-out for March 11 with the occasion of the iPad 2 keynote and the iTunes update is just a confirmation of things to come, as it adds Sync and Home Sharing support for iOS 4.3 powered devices. There's not much more to the update than that, according to the changelog, and even if iOS 4.3 wasn't released yesterday as rumored, you only have to wait two more days at max.

After the released of Apple iPad 2,Apple Store Malaysia straight away revised the pricing of Apple iPad.
All the models discounts from RM350 for the iPad with WiFi and RM400 for iPad WiFi + 3G.The price now for the Apple iPad with WiFi are 16GB (RM1199),32GB (RM1499) and 64GB (RM1799).
Meanwhile,Apple iPad WiFi + 3G are 16GB (RM1599),32GB (RM1899) and 64GB (RM2199).Even the Apple iPad 2 added on Facetime,thinner,longer battery lasting and built in A5 chip.But,the price after revised was very attracted and affordable for most of Apple fans.
Don't forget that Malaysia selling the cheapest Apple iPad in the world.So,it's so worthy for the price and grab it going home ^_^
P/S:here's the price of Apple iPad before pricing revised...

After the released of Apple iPad 2,it's seems another great year for Apple and Steve Jobs.
To celebrates it,there's a video that Steve Jobs singing a song to promoted Apple iPad 2 was the new design and better than Motorola Xoom...lolx
Here the lyrics:
It's called the iPad 2
All new design for you
Better than Motorola Xoom
Gotta get me an iPad 2
'Cause you ain't got s***
Without an A5 chip
We started off in 2001 with the iPod
And, uh, we've been at it ever since (At it ever since)
Then in 2007, we added the the iPhone
And in 2010, we added the iPad
It's called the iPad 2
All new design for you
Better than Motorola Xoom
Gotta get me an iPad 2
'Cause you ain't got s***
Without an A5 chip
iPad 2, an amazing product
What can we improve?
Faster, lighter, thinner, cameras, gryoscope
And it comes in two colors
Black and white and we're gonna be shipping white from day one
It's called the iPad 2
All new design for you
Better than Motorola Xoom
Gotta get me an iPad 2
Apple Inc. FTW
'Cause it's a third of an inch thin
It's called the iPad 2
All new design for you
Better than Motorola Xoom
Gotta get me an iPad 2
iPad would be perfect
With 326 pixels per inch
Gotta get me an iPad
It's plain to see
Other tablets are so bad
Honeycomb is not for me
It's called the iPad 2
All new design for you
Better than Motorola Xoom
Gotta get me an iPad 2
'Cause you ain't got s***
Without an A5 chip
It's called the iPad 2 (It's called the iPad)
All new design for you
Better than Motorola Xoom (Better than Motorola)
Gotta get me an iPad 2
When I get my iPad 2
I'll say "thank you, Steve"
Gotta get my iPad 2
Before the iPad 3

You have to hand it to Apple CEO Steve Jobs. No matter how ill he may be, his showmanship and stage presence remain undimmed. So much so that it took, as it often does, days for the euphoria of the Apple iPad 2 unveiling to wear off. As that happened, though, I, like others, started to have these little, "Hey, wait a minute…" moments. And from there, the inevitable questions about the latest magical device from Apple started piling up. Here are the ones I've been considering or hearing from others. Fortunately, I think we have answers for virtually all of them.
1. Why No Memory Specs?
Apple's busy touting the iPad 2's huge performance increase (over the original), which comes courtesy of the A5 chip. That makes sense, a dual-core processor should beat the pants off a single core CPU. However, as with any computer, the CPU is only part of the performance story. What's the easiest way to increase system performance? Add memory. We know that the first-generation iPad has 256MB of RAM, but Apple isn't saying how much is in the iPad 2. "More" seems like a reasonable guess.

"More" seems like a reasonable guess.
2. Why No 4G?
Apple's new best friend, Verizon, has a brand-new LTE network, but you won't find 4G on the new Verizon iPhone 4 or the latest-gen iPad. Why is that? Price is one reason: Adding a 4G radio would certainly have increased the price on the top-of-the line iPad 2. Also, Apple pays pretty close attention to the market and early market research indicated that almost 50 percent of potential iPad buyers were picking up a Wi-Fi-only model (Apple does not break out Wi-Fi-only iPad sales figures). I have a 3G-ready iPad, but I've never activated the service (I find ample Wi-Fi access almost everywhere I use my iPad). I suspect that's a common scenario. If a good percentage of iPad owners aren't using 3G—even when they have it—why would Apple jump to introduce 4G?

3. Why No Apple TV Gaming?
There was some conjecture that Apple might try to make Apple TV and the iPad 2 into a de facto console-gaming solution: The games would reside on the iPad, and they would play on your HDTV via Airplay and Apple TV. The iPad, then, would essentially become the game controller. Apple seems committed to keeping iPad gaming firmly on the iPad and it always tries to avoid subpar user experiences. Any iPad game scaled up to play on your HDTV could look bad, plus, Wi-Fi might not support real-time interaction.

4. Why No 7-Inch Tablet?
Have you not been listening? Last year Steve Job's called 7-inch tablets "dead on arrival." Now, the Cupertino leader has been known to change his mind. He famously dismissed Apple making phones only to turn around and deliver the groundbreaking iPhone. Even so, 7-inch tablets have not set the world on fire. Apple will gladly point those who want a smaller iPad to the iPhone or iPod touch.

5. Why No Flash Support?
Really? Did anyone think Steve Jobs was going to change his mind on this? Apple reportedly believes Flash support would cut iPad battery life from 10 hours down to 1.5. That's unlikely, but note how proud Jobs was that the iPad 2 has gotten more powerful without sacrificing a lick of battery life. He's right about one thing: When it comes to mobile devices, nothing is more precious than long battery life.

He's right about one thing: When it comes to mobile devices, nothing is more precious than long battery life.
6. Why No Display-Resolution Boost?
I really thought Apple would go above 1,024 by 768 to at least 1,280 by 1,024. But screen resolution and perception are somewhat fungible. Some screens simply look better than others, and with the relatively small screen size of most tablets, including the original iPad, iPad 2, and Motorola Xoom, telling the difference between HD imagery and average screen resolutions can be difficult. You don't, for instance, realize how good the iPhone 4's Retina display really is until you hold it up next to another similarly sized phone. Plus, while the HD-ready Xoom has a 1280-by-800 screen resolution, the pixels-per-inch comparison between the iPad 2 and the Xoom puts the screen image quality somewhat closer: The Xoom is approximately 149ppi and the iPad 2 is 132ppi. Again, it goes back to perception. If your apps, movies, and photos look good enough to you on your iPad, then perhaps you don't need a higher-res screen. Two other, fairly obvious reasons: Higher resolution would definitely have an impact on battery life, and keeping the same screen resolution means no upscaling for existing iPad apps.

7. Why Can't the iPad 2 Be a Phone?
The iPad 2 has more power and more carriers than its predecessor, yet it still can't act as a phone—not at least without third-party application assistance. How easy would it be for Apple to add the phone features (voice plan, virtual keypad, voice dialing, etc.)? Once again, Apple has a phone and they want you to buy it if you plan on making calls. The iPad is not a device you should be holding up to your ear. Obviously, if the iPad 2 works with a Bluetooth headset then you don't have to hold it against your head. As I see it, Apple's strategy is to convince consumers that the iPhone, iPad, MacBooks, and Macs are all very distinct devices, each with their own skill set and purpose. Turning the iPad into a phone would muddy the waters, confuse consumers, and possibly eat into iPhone sales.

8. Why Didn't We Get a 128GB Model?
Going from 64GB to 128GB of flash memory might have added another $100 to the price of the high-end iPad 2. Apple seems determined to keep its pricing strata the same as it was for the first-gen iPad. Also, I've heard from some iPad users that they have trouble filling up their 64GB first-gen iPads. I guess that's a good problem to have.

9. Why No SD Card Slot or USB Ports?
It's likely because the iPad 2's new cameras mean you can snap and store photos and videos on the tablet and you don't need to collect them off your camera's memory card. Plus, with iOS 4.3's new home-sharing capabilities, you may find it easier to grab what you need directly from your PC. The other reason may be that once Apple committed to the thinner design and radically tapered edges, an SD card slot simply wouldn't have fit. Same goes for USB ports. And if you want a super-thin Apple device with USB, go buy a MacBook Air.

I'll be honest, I prefer a full cover for my iPad, but that magnetic Smart Cover, which will only work with the iPad 2, is pretty cool, and Steve Jobs said it'll even clean the screen when you open it. Wait a minute. It'll do what? I have a little trouble believing that claim, since you usually have to rub the Gen 1 iPad screen vigorously with a cloth to obliterate all the finger smudges. Sorry, there's no way a cover—even a micro-fiber one—can clean simply by folding over the iPad 2's glass face. That just sounds like "magical" thinking to me.

Apple iPad 2 might coming soon to Malaysia on 8th March 2011.... Why i said so?
According to a picture upload to DiGi Telecommunications on Facebook,i strongly believe Apple iPad 2 will coming soon to Malaysia.Most importantly person who upload it was DiGi Head of Marketing Services as i stalked.
Can't wait for it?Stay tuned with DiGi and i think that will getting announcement sooner.
Apple's countdown to 10 billion downloads in its App Store hit its long-awaited milestone this weekend.
The lucky customer, who gets $10,000 worth of virtual cash for the download, responded to the news by hanging up the phone on Apple when the company called to congratulate her.
"I thought it was a prank call," Gail Davis of Orpington, Kent, UK, told Apple fan site Cult of Mac. "I said, 'Thank you very much, I'm not interested' and I hung up."
Turns out, one of Davis's daughters had downloaded the winning app -- "Paper Glider," a game that simulates building paper airplanes and flinging them around an office.
Apple announced the milestone on Saturday.
"With more than 10 billion apps downloaded in just two and a half years -- a staggering seven billion apps in the last year alone -- the App Store has surpassed our wildest dreams," said Apple marketing vice president Philip Schiller. "The App Store has revolutionized how software is created, distributed, discovered and sold."
After talking to her daughters, Davis said she realized the call, from iTunes vice president Eddy Cue, was for real. She tried calling Apple back, to no avail, but got a call from one of Cue's colleagues a couple of hours later.
"The girls were getting quite tense," she told Cult of Mac. "They never would have forgiven me. They would have held it against me for all eternity.
"If it had been Steve Jobs [calling] I definitely would have thought it was a wind up."
Davis told Cult of Mac her girls download apps for their iPod Touches. She and her husband have iPod Nanos, she said, but not models that run apps. She said that might change soon.
