All this comes in a sleek package of only 9.5 inches long, half-inch thick and 1.5 pounds weight. As opposed to a smartphone, the Apple device is very convenient for two-hand use. The most importantly, it finally allows you to get by without bringing laptop, newspapers, magazines and books.

The gadget seems to mesmerize not only adults, but also kids, as there were cases when 6-year-olds were ready to give up their Highlights subscription for the iPad itself and perhaps change their candies for the bright iPad case. That’s cool, of course, but would it be as cool for your wallet? The cost of using the device doesn’t often equal to its sale price. If you understand the level of final costs, it may influence your purchasing intent. Let’s run the numbers.

iPad real cost
First of all, the initial capital outlay should be made. The iPad is currently available in 6 versions starting at 0 up to 0. The price varies depending on storage capacity (like iPods) and also on type of Internet connectivity, which can be either Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi + 3G mobile broadband (like smartphone). Specifically, support for 3G mobile broadband is a 0 more expensive than Wi-Fi only. The item we opt for is a middle-of-the-road 32GB iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G, priced at 0 plus tax. Of course, you’ll buy some extra accessories for the device, like the iPad case and a connection kit, but it actually depends, so we won’t take these expenses into consideration.

In addition, the 3G designation bring in another cost a monthly data plan, which is sold separately by AT&T. This we will cover too, as that’s one of the great things about this gadget its portability. With this particular iPad and involved costs you’ll to be able to go online whenever you like. The plan in question comes in 2 options: limited for p/mo and unlimited for p/mo. To prevent costly overages, we’ll opt for the latter, which would cost another 0 per year just to get online.

Then, after e-mail, news and YouTube are covered, you’ll note that such incredible 10-inch display is worth being filled with multimedia. Is it better to choose from United Airlines’ offer then to take an advantage of the iTunes store right at your fingertips? We’d assume the answer is no. Move to the figures: TV shows are each episode (except classic Star Trek episodes that are free online), while a film rental is ; while purchase is . In average we’d say the user watches a whole season of 12 episodes of TV show per year and about 10 movie rentals. This totals to .

The estimations done bring us to the total cost of 0 + 0 + = ,166. And that’s only for one year, which is not the time you would want to keep this device for. Considering an AT&T contract is 2 years, and the user is able to resist the urge to upgrade, then the fair time to keep the gadget is 4 years. They make it 0 + 0*4 + *4 = ,474.

iPad real savings
Figure of almost ,500 for owning and using the iPad is quite depressive, but there’s also the second side of the ledger, assuming that this computing power can actually save you money.

Thanks to the tablet’s size and beautiful display, the device will consolidate your magazine and newspaper subscriptions, which is great news for the wallet, at least for now. It can even look like a real book if you zip it into the appropriate iPad case. The matter is that the majority of news companies and magazines publish their articles for free in the Internet. However, the situation can change quickly, but we’ll hope for the opposite. Even those titles that don’t provide free copies online charge significantly less for digital subscriptions than for printed versions. That’s fair for the costs all they need to cover is copyright, or journalists’ work no printing and no delivery costs. Now let’s count. Imagine an average iPad purchaser (of a corresponding level) subscribed to The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Economist, and Time. The Wall Street Journal costs 9 per year for printed version while the digital one is 3. Then, The New York Times costs 8.40 annually with home delivery, while online is free at the moment (though the newspaper has promised to change prices in 2011). The Economist charges 7 annually with for online version. Finally, Time is in printed and free in the Internet. In a year online access will save you for these 4 publications (9 3) + 8.4 + (7 – ) + =6.4, for the first year at least. Even if The New York Times announces its new pricing, it would most probably not exceed 80% of the printed version cost, or 6.4, thus saving you a hypothetical 2. This will drop the initially suggested savings down to 0, starting from year two.

Besides replacing newspapers and magazines, iPad can also substitute some other devices, so we’ll substract their price from the cost as well, because you won’t need them when you get an iPad. Let’s start with reading experience. Since iPad is perfect for e-reading, it will replace Amazon Kindle, which is around 0. Also the Apple’s gadget can substitute an average Netbook, which is, say, 0. That’s another 0 you save in device replacements. Although the device can replace many other gadgets like digital photo frame and day planner, we don’t count this because few people use them the majority uses smartphones as planners, and don’t use digital photo frames at all, unless they are taken as a gift and therefore free.

Getting back to the reading experience, it’s worth noting that the Apple’s latest gadget may replace printed books with Apple thinking over pricing at to for the book depending on its popularity. If you find yourself in a bookstore at a regular basis, buying books at full retail price, this would be quite a saving for you. On the other hand, you might have already discovered Amazon, which prices can be compared to Apple’s. In case of using a Kindle, the book price can actually be to less than on the iPad. If you used to purchase around 20 books a year in the shop, it will save you up to 0 annually, but if you preferred a Kindle, that’s just a potential extra cost of 0, plus you can’t account for Kindle replacement savings since you should have the device already.

This brings up to total annual savings of 6 + 0 + 0 = 86 or 6 + 0 – 0 = 6 if you were a Kindle user. That’s for the first year after purchasing the iPad. The next three add 0*3 + 0*3 = 70 or 0*3 – 0*3 = 0 for Kindle users.
In total, you would either save 56 or 96 in the 4-year time. Not bad, considering that your cost was ,500.

Cost of Innovation
Those who see the gadget as an investment for their productivity should clearly understand that it’s the kind of investment on which they may never see a concise return. But besides money there are some certain things you won’t be able to measure in cash, like forgetting about the shoulder ache after carrying your huge laptop over to the airplane. iPad can also save much of you time by providing you the ability to access documents on the fly, and finally, you will never forget the excitement of owning the most popular gadget of this decade.

First, a checklist! Bringing your charger and power cables is a given, but if you are coming to Southeast Asia chances are good the pins won’t quite fit into power sockets in Thailand and you should invest in a power adapter or three. Most hotels in Thailand worth their salt will let you borrow one for free, but it’s best to take your own just in case. For good measure, take a few extra batteries too: again, there’s no telling whether you will be stranded in an airport due to delayed flights or other mishaps and despite your best efforts, your smartphone, iPad or iPod Touch might still run out of juice mid-flight (though in the case of iPod Touches and iPads you will be a little hard-pressed to swap batteries, so look into power mats instead or start considering alternative devices).

Next: flight precautions. While the stewards will bother you about shutting down your devices, some airlines aren’t too strict with this (and provide in-flight WiFi to boot). However, if you leave your phone’s radio on–that is, the bit that checks for cellphone towers-the battery will drain to nothing within an hour or two of the plane’s takeoff; nothing sucks down power like a phone looking for a cell tower while being absolutely out of range of any. How do you fix this without turning your phone off? Simple: turn on airplane mode. It will shut down all phone signal and Bluetooth radio, but you will still be able to connect to WiFi (if any is available) and you can still use your smartphone for everything else, whether to e-read or play games to pass the time. To do this, dig around in your settings. Airplane mode should fall under “Wireless network” or a similar heading; this can vary from platform to platform.

Before you touch down at Suvarnabhumi or Chiang Mai International Airport, make sure to google up your phone’s specs. Nothing complicated! Just try a search with “[your phone's model] 900 3g” or “[your phone's model] 850 3g,” as those are the two bands most conveniently available in Thailand. At the time of writing, 3G in Thailand is can be had through the carriers AIS and TrueMove, which have licenses for the 900MHz and 850 MHz bands respectively. Assuming your phone is unlocked and GSM, meaning it has a SIM slot, when you arrive you can slot in an AIS or TrueMove SIM and you’ll be on your merry way. Don’t forget to make sure it’s a 3G SIM and don’t bother with DTac; they are currently offering data at speeds no higher than Edge and what they do offer is not cheaper than their counterpart packages from AIS and TrueMove.

These should get you started on preparing your gadgets for traveling to Thailand. Never make do without your beloved devices again!

Carrying around numerous devices is not only expensive but bulky. Phones have become so sophisticated these days that they are not only called smartphones but they are really mini computers. So what are some considerations you might take when weighing out whether to purchase a smartphone or laptop? Consider the following:

1.  Make a list of all the ways you use a laptop to determine whether your smartphone could replace it. Are you using your laptop to type a lot? That is, typing, as in large documents, not just emails or comments on Facebook. Of course they make keyboards for smartphones, so even the idea of typing large documents doesn’t have to be a smartphone deterrent. The downside is the size of the screen. If you are typing a lot and re-reading your materials, you may face eyestrain with a smartphone.

2. How much storage do you need? Some people store moderate amounts of information and others download everything under the sun.

Photos and video can take up a lot of storage, which in such cases you would want a laptop. Laptops also have numerous ports if you are looking to plug in cameras or camcorders to download pictures and video.

3. Internet connection is another consideration. Many smartphones have Internet connection, while in having a laptop you have to pay for an Internet plan. While you have to pay for data on your cell phone plan too, you may find that it would be something you already want, so why not get full use out of it.

4. Where will you use your device? Laptops and smartphones are both portable, but obviously a smartphone is the most portable and convenient. If you find yourself doing most of your work at a desk with only minimal amounts of time away from it, then the laptop makes more sense.

5. What type of software are you using? If you are a business professional who needs to put together large documents, spreadsheets, multimedia presentations, etc – then of course it makes sense to have a larger screen and thus a laptop.

6. Are you mostly browsing the Internet? If you are somebody who spends most of their time online, whether it is reading the news, contacting others, playing on Facebook or checking the stock market, then the smartphone may be the way to go. While a laptop screen makes it easier to see, a smartphone may be cheaper and much more convenient. With today’s sophistication in software such as Android, you can surf the Internet with the same results as with a laptop.

7. Watching Movies? If you are somebody who watches a lot of video, whether it be movies, Netflix, YouTube or whatnot, then going with a laptop would be the better decision. Obviously a laptop is easier to view and can play DVDS, Blu-ray  and such. You will also have better speakers and nicer resolution. Many smartphones aren’t made for video either, only small clips.

8. Playing Games? Portable gaming kills a lot of time when a person is waiting around – whether in public or at home. The convenience of pulling out your smartphone to waste some time playing games is certainly much easier than pulling out a laptop. The types of online games you play will determine which device to have though. Games that require heavy graphics and visuals, should of course should be played on a laptop. Even with this said, choose a laptop that is made for gaming.  Among the smartphones, the iPhone has been leading the pack in game varieties with Android phones second and Blackberry way in the back.

The decision on which device to choose may be difficult. If you can afford it, owning both gives you the best of both worlds. But if you can’t, weigh out your needs with the above criteria before committing.
