I learned japanese as an additional course. I have appeared for the n5 exam in july 2011 but i was not able to clear the exam. And working hard on it i applied for the same in dec 2011 and appeared for the exam and waiting for my results. But i feel it to be very difficult learning for the exam. Please do give me some advice on how i should score well in my exam. I am a third year studdent pursuing electronics and communication engineering now in my college.

This would actually be a very valid reason to take the Softbank issued 3G-without-ever-using-WiFi iPad over the standard Apple issued WiFi-only iPad for the same price. Good point Maddy!

I would suggest the following. Getting the 3G iPad2, removing the sim card after getting the who kit set up for you in shop. it would be cheaper, albeit minutely. However, they will install the "Wifi Profile" Fon/Live door and yahooBB hotspots as well as in the Tokyo subway public wifi will all be free to use. As an iPhone owner it's strange but I am rarely on 3G now and mostly on WiFi from home to work. I may be late to the game but having tried the WiFi only iPad from softbank.

Do you know if either Softbank or Emobile will do a package without including the iPad? (I already have a 32GB iPad1) Thanks for a clear (and much needed) comparison!
