Telstra Pre-Paid micro-SIM for Apple iPad

OK, I wasn't aware of the micro sim availability. I am a technical Luddite!

Yeah, I went down that path.

Bottom line appears to be an incompatibility with the wifi router which is odd, considering the other 6 devices (non-apple) using it don't have a problem.

And then marketed them very well.

So far looks to me that the Dropad A8X Android 2.2 for $198.00 is the best value and have good specs.

The Ipad looks nice but for that money perhaps a 10" small laptop with good specs will be a better option and will fit in my camera bag very well.

What you know about the HP Pavilion dm1z?
The graphics specs looks good for review photos in the field and the price it is not bad.
