Why queue and buy iPad while you can order online on Malaysia Apple Store? Read on to find out the reasons to buy iPad online.

1. Free shipping

Apple Store provides free shipping of your order. Just a few clicks at home and the iPad will be delivered to your doorstep. Convenient!

2. Free personal engraving

Whether it is for yourselves or your love, Apple online store could add a free laser engraving to the back of iPad, as well as iPods.

It could be a love message (read: “Remember, I bought you iPad!”), your personal message (so that people do not take your iPad by accident), etc. Unique!

3. Signature gift wrapping

For an iPad gift, what could be more special than an Apple signature gift wrapping? You can order iPad on Apple store as a gift and it will wrap in a signature gift box along with a personalized greeting card and red ribbon. Romantic!

Bonus: Education discount

While this is not available for the iPad, I think it is worth to mention that you could only get Apple Education discount on Apple Store. Apple retailers do not offer education price.

Do you buy Apple products online or at Apple stores?

While Malaysia Apple fans are queueing for iPad 2 in the early morning, Apple Store Malaysia has quietly started iPad 2 sales online at 1:00 am, April 29, 2011. That’s 9 hours ahead the Apple reseller outlets.LowYat.net reported that a guy has been in line waiting for iPad 2 release since 10:00pm, April 28, 2011 — 12 hours before the actual sale!

The online pricing on Apple Online Store is still the same as previously reported, but you get free iPad engraving of your custom message. That’s the service you don’t get from Apple reseller outlets. The shipping is free of charge, but it will takes 1-2 weeks to reach your doorstep (thanks to the iPad2 madness).

Would you prefer to shop online (wait 1-2 week) or queue for hours (cash & carry) to get your iPad 2?

MALAYSIA: You are excited about iPad 2 sales in Malaysia and can’t wait to buy it as soon as it available.

Now, where should you goto queue and buy iPad 2 in Malaysia? Read on for the “Malaysia iPad 2 Queue Guide”.

Apple resellers

If you are living in Kuala Lumpur area, try the Machines outlets. Here is the map of Machines outlets locations and contact number. They even has the iPad 2 Buying FAQ on facebook!

If you are living in Penang area, try Switch outlets. Both have confirmed that they will have iPad 2 sales tomorrow (April 29, 2011).

Friendly reminder: Make a call before you heading to the particular outlet to confirm the availability of iPad 2.

If you are planning to overnight in the mall (OMG!) to get the 1st queue number, please take note that some shopping malls do NOT allowed visitors stay after closing hour. Please call to confirm.

There are other Apple Premium Resellers in Malaysia, but they are quiet about iPad 2 (no announcement on website nor facebook). Anyway, you can try to enquiry them. Here is the official list of Apple Reseller Listing with their addresses and contact number.

Apple Online Store

Apple Malaysia Online Store will sell iPad 2, too. I called Apple Malaysia office but they cannot confirm that iPad 2 sales will be available tomorrow, despite that the Apple Store is currently down for update.

Update (April 29): Now you can order iPad 2 online but the shipping time is 1-2 weeks.

If you cannot get iPad 2 in the queue, then you might like to order iPad 2 online. That’s no sweat shopping, though the waiting time maybe longer (1-2 weeks).

Hope these information help you to get your iPad 2 in Malaysia. Good luck!
