Me Myself and Ipad

I love my third hand iPad
We have a lot in common
It can't handle updates for starters
Anything after 2013
Right after I turned 40
What you see is what you get
It's happy to be connected
Mid sentence looking something up
It will forget everything
When asked to do anything
It's sometimes just too much 
And it shuts down

It has a few dents too

Jeff Connelly Date: 3/23/2019 2:36:00 PM So hilarious Maureen. It seems that you can stop time with that device. I showed my son my suitcase typewriter that I had at University. He was totally fascinated. I showed him how it worked, and we put in a piece of paper. He typed, "old school"... Jajaja Login to Reply

Faraz Ajmal Date: 6/14/2018 9:59:00 AM Oops, that s the problem with apple devices, once a few in launched the previous one stop getting updates and a time comes when you can t even do anything on it, you should probably go for Samsung, same happens with me, I accidentally sat on my tab, it was samsung tab s2, and it s panel isn t anywhere in Pakistan, have to wait for 6 months, and now next week it s new panel will arrive and it has cost me 12000, of this you can buy a new nice mobil, just coz I sit on it, I have to pay so much Login to Reply Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Date: 6/14/2018 10:08:00 AM Ah, you're sweet Faraz, thank you! :) That's crazy expensive! I'm not buying anything, I get my "digital downloads" from a dear friend, she stays up to date. I have 2 old iPads I can do what I need between them, and a decade old MacBook for back up when they fail. I'm easy to please :) xomo!
