so my poor old ipad has seen better days, so decided to bite the bullet and get a new one (well secondhand recon jobby actually) it arrived today and it turns out you cant put a sim card in it (why?) also when I tried to charge it I got nothing. so return arranged and search more carefully for a familiar ipad mini (that I can definitely put a sim card in) and order that instead. fingers crossed that this one works...

If you need a protective case for the apple ipad mini, give me a shout, and I'll post it down. I ordered a mini NOS a couple of years ago and the seller cancelled the order  hopefully it will fit...(I'll dig it out) My Ipad air2 is like that, bought for the wife at release date, I got it back when she treated herself to an Ipad pro, still updates to the latest Ios, but did not know it would not take a physical SIM! Its handy, but have to WIFI hotspot it to a phone, if out and about. |

I'd (wrongly) assumed that they would all take a SIM as portable devices but obviously I'm wrong (its ok I'm used to it now  ) I'm not really sure whats happened to the one I'm using, its as if its got a virus or some sort of corruption. all very odd as apparently it lives in a sandbox (news to me) and I havent broken it out of jail so I'm blaming apples last updates. thats a really kind offer john I'll drop you a PM when I get chance |
