Hi AQ OC, thx for sharing, i'll try out what u recommend, and dont b mad i ask one more question.
can i put video(i mean download from net, jus like drama, mv, etc) to my ipad?
cuz i ask my fren(he's not pro, jus a novice), he say cant put any video inside, the only way to add video n playback is record by it camera.......
so i wonder is there any alternate way to add my favourite video to my player?

You can buy content (movies) from itunes, depending on your country. In the use, you can get apps for ABC, CW, etc, that let you watch (not download). You can get PC programs that let you download youtube videos...and these you can copy over to your iPad (youtube downloader). You can buy a DVD/bluray movie and get a digital copy that you can put on your iPad.

Screen shot is home button and power button simultaneously.
I use that a lot for keeping my train of thoughts when I go multitasking on the web.
If you play a musical instrument, then you should have gotten iOS long time ago.
Apple TV with airplay is a nice thing to have going forward.
If you ever need to get a case, stand, and/or cable adapter, you don't have to search hard it's everywhere.
Save apps to the cloud for free so that you can easily restored them if you decided to upgrade down the road.

Since I mainly use wifi I like apps that let me download and then view the web pages and videos.
There are several apps that lets you do this.

You really don't need to do this. Every App you purchase is still available in the App store to freely download again, unless for the rare event it gets pulled by Apple, or the developer. I purchase free stuff all the time(Free only for a day stuff), then delete for if I want to use it at a later date, but don't want it on my iPhone/iPad right now.

One example was the App HiddenApps, which was a deliberate workaround to hide some of the default Apple Apps. That App was pulled in about 1/2 a day.
