Happy New Member

[sbolo]

Hi, I'm a long-time Android user, and the iPad Mini that I got yesterday
is the first Apple device that I own. The two systems are quite different
and there's seem to be a lot to learn, so I'm very happy to have found
this Forum while searching the web for answers to some setup problems.
Thanks everybody.

Hi, welcome to iPF! I'm sure you'll learn a lot here, and if you need help, don't bother to ask. Yoi'll get it in no time. The members and moderators are very friendly and helpful.
It's really a big difference between Android and Apple, but as soon as you get to know your device a little better, you'll discover that it's easy to work with. So enjoy your new iPad and this forum!
