A couple of years?

"A couple of" has always been one of those phrases that interests me. Merriam Webster defines it as "an indefinitely small number". The freedictionary.com defines it as "more than one" so, I guess, technically speaking the OP could have been using an iPad for a couple of years though, I suspect, most of us feel that - in common usage - it means about two...

OK - I'll go away now......

Except, My Dear. The ipad has only been out a year ~ or am I missing something?

The iPad1 has been out since April 2010 so the OP could have had it for more than a year and, according to those dictionary definitions "a couple of years" simply means "more than one" - but I agree that, in common usage, most people mean 2 years and I was just being awkward ........

LOL!

Don't you have someone to HELP?

you are right SP it was in May last year that I bought it but it seems like ages I have it ( now there already is an iPad 2 !!!) and I don't use it to the full.

i am glad you didn't laugh at me pfffuiiii !

my first problem with it was to create itunes and download or synchronize and then update...my old pc ( still have it :-( ) kept on saying there is an old version of iTunes and could not continue set up. I discovered how to get rid of it...a week ago and now slowly get to understand how it works ..sort of...but every step I take is full of new problems and googling is good but too much time consuming. I found this website and now I feel a little more confident to try further..ask...and see how it goes.
