Still no Indonesia.:mad:

Typical slow Indonesian Officials.

Like the Lady Gaga case, it was already known months ago she would have a concert here on June 3th but just last week they (Government-Muslim Ulama-FPI) start to question it, then a couple of days ago wasn't allowed to have her concert, after a demonstration of fans she was allowed just yesterday and today I heard Lady Gaga canceled it because of the hassle.:eek:

Apparently she won't tour in countries that don't yet have the new iPad. Sucks, I know.

I read this as a new iPad, as in newer than the current model.

haha, yes, it's the "new iPad" not a new new "iPad". Though when the next, newer new iPad launches it may be confusing for the owners of the current, future-old "new iPad" (though not so much for the even older new iPads, as they could be called 'original' or '2' as well as being new. Before they were old).

iPad (3rd Generation) anyway.
