Yesterday was an exciting day as Apple finally (!) announced details of the iPad 2 availability in Malaysia via an official press release. Local retailers have also started providing exact pricing in Ringgit but news on store availability still seems a bit hazy.

The following is a summary of the date, pricing, and most importantly retail outlets where you can purchase an iPad 2 on the official launch day.
