No MyWi5.0 ahem in Cydia. TetherMe did not work and Pdanet is for PC only i mean it works if you want to share iPad or iPhone data connection to PC.

Correct me if i am wrong.
 
Planing to get a 64 giga with wifi.

1:: Any good deals from where to get it.

2:: I mostly will use it for 3g mtnl.So can i use it as hotspot?WHere is share the net from it to some lappy in some extreme cases?

3::Or are there any good option other than ipad to get or competition from samsung coming up?
 
Total iPad noob here. Want to know whether the iPad 2 is jailbreakable ? I am planning to buy one. I am not really interested in the new ipad (3) as i have done a comparison side by side of the two ipads here in bestbuy and to my untrained eyes i don't find much difference. I am also not interested in that very high resolution newer display and that 5X or whatever processor as i know what the device will be used for.

I would better save the money instead.

Will the iPad owners and people having more knowledge than me suggest whether it is a good bet to get an iPad 2 wifi for me ?

And yes i would love if it is jailbreakable.

I will be buying from amazon.com only. No other option to buy (i have amazon GC balance).
 
#raksrules dont buy an iPad just for Jailbreak. iPad / iPhone without jailbreak are much better in stability than a jailbroken devices.

Jailbreak is inevitable for which ever device or iOS. When iPhone4s came the devs said jailbreak is not happening.I would say get the 3G one as just wifi would make your iPad nothing more than a big iPod. You will sorely miss connectivity when you are outside the house. All my friends who have or had wifi iPad say that they did a mistake in getting a iPad with out 3G.Even i got wifi ipad but upgraded to 3G.

I do see what you are saying and i am also torn down between the wifi only and wifi+3g but i am not sure that whether paying a premium of 150+ $ for the additional 3G is worth it or not. Actually i do not see myself using the iPad (or any tablet) out of my house and hence i was thinking about the wifi only. Also in future i am planning to buy an iPhone for myself and in those times whenever in the rare occurance i will need internet connectivity on iPad outside my house, i can always use the hotspot thing (not for prolonged use offcourse).

You might be having usage outside your home but i might not have, something which i am sure of.

What are your suggestions in this case?

Btw jailbreak is not the only reason but it is always good to have a JB to have some really useful tweaks installed like zephyr and i am sure many are there, i have limited knowledge of cydia apps and tweaks.

I said the same exact words when i was about to purchase the iPad2 i was wrong after using iPad for a month, Hotspotting is irritating as phone's battery drains quickly. You will repent like me after using the iPad wifi for few months
 
the 150$ is not only for 3g but also for GPS.

There is GPS too ?? I seriously did not know that. Thanks.

Let me evaluate my options and see what i should go for.

But still i am 99% biased towards getting wifi only because of the use that i am expecting.

I am still thinking that in those extreme cases where i may need internet on road, i can use hotspot from phone. Because i know that i might not take the iPad on road in the first place.
 
Maps work even on wifi but they need constant data connection , apps such as Tom Tom , Sygic cannot be used on a wifi model. Pick up a 3G ipad if you don't like it i will buy it from you

Can someone tell me where to buy the Ipad 2 / 3 online from? Which sites offer the best deals? I can't find it on Flipkart

I am looking for the 16GB Wifi + 3G/4G models. Thanks.
 
Congrats

I am here if you want to sell it and get the wifi. BTW how much did u pay , there was news that Apple dropped prices recently.
 
I finally ordered the Ipad 3 16 Wifi + 4G. I got it for Rs. 38,000/- (a bit expensive but I had to buy locally). The screen is brilliant !!! I am thinking of getting the Targus Vuscape case for the same.
