ItsJustDomo-New here!

[ItsJustDomo]

Hello everyone. My name is Domo, I'm a 16 year old female, and relatively broke. I won an iPad 2 in a raffle for a test I'd taken through my school. It'd be nice if someone could give me the run down of what I can do on this thing. Not really sure what to use it for, but hopefully I can play video games on it? Well feel free to message me, happy to meet new people.

Gees, that makes you even luckier! You're going to love your iPad, there really is so much you can do with it!

I hope so. I heard it doesn't have flash? And that the Internet/data plans are really expensive. :/

So you have a 3G model? I'm in Australia and our plans start from $20 a month, I don't know where you are so use this as a guide. I only charge my sim when I go on holiday and use wifi mostly all the time.
