Colin my one is on the way to my home ;-) (around 40 minutes max) what’s about you’re ?

Ha ha I used special technology to divert the jet to Brisbane so I can pick yours up at the Airport here Sorry about that

Na I will wait to order mine in Australia when it is released Hoping I can get it at cost as we sell ipods and are an Apple direct reseller ( ipods at the moment. I also can order a demo via the Apple reseller whom I am associated with ( long story) Problem is I suspect Apple will sell through Apple store and their retail stores only when its released around April 25.

Enjoy your Toy

SO glad to see this thread. Most appreciate the moderator's help the first 20 minutes I had my iPad and, in total desperation,wrote him an email. I erased it before replying, "Thank you."
QUESTION: Also posted in Netflix thread before I saw this thread -- Netflix app never takes me to the sign in screen, and I haven't found a way to get to the sign in screen. I only see the page for people who have forgotten their password, fill it in, go to my email via Safari, open the Netflix reply, click, and get back to Netflix (page to enter a new password). If I stay signed in to Netflix all the time, I can then immediately use their toolbar and get rolling. This is time consuming, and a pain. No reply when I emailed Netflix Support. ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS?
I'm loving this iPad.

thanks

I regret I am unable to access Netflix from Australia as we need US address and US credit card so I am unable to help. I will forward this to another Moderator

Colin in Aust

The sign in should be in the upper right corner when you start the app.

Just a simple question from gramma. I use my iPad a lot. Usually I charge it intermittent during day the want to know if it would be okay to charge it all night. Will that hurt the battery. Is it possible yo overcharge it. Say if it is at 70% and I charge it all night.

Lithium ion batteries can be charged any time for any duration without after effect or memory effect. Rest assured. I plug anything as soon as I don't use it.
