C's "Big Phone"!

"Big Phone!"

This was C's exact words when she first saw the iPad and we were then in England.

We had a discussion some months back and she said that she wanted it so that she could play her games. I was wondering if it was a good idea because firstly, the iPad doesn't come cheap and secondly, C is only a young child and what was a kiddo supposed to do with a gadget like an iPad. It was suspiciously looking more like a toy for Daddy instead. Ha ha.

But then again, C has monopolizing my iPhone since Daddy bought that for me because of the many educational applications and movies. She absolutely loves the games that she can play on my phone and she probably knows the phone better than I do. She watches movies and video clips on the phone too and lately, we noticed that she has been squinting her eyes. Was it because of the tiny screen?

Initially we had plans to order it from Apple in the United States and had it shipped over then we changed our minds and thought since it was going to be launched in Singapore soon (it was like a good 3 months more) we reckoned we could wait. It was wishful thinking to think that we could waltz into the Apple Store to get it when it finally made its appearance hence it was onto the waiting list again.

Then this afternoon, Daddy got news that there was stocks and we headed down to get one for ourselves.

Yeah! Proud owners of the iPad!

That very evening, we used it to surf the Internet.
