Sure does fit pretty snug, I have to push the plug in with more force than other devices that I use the same headphones in. My inCase iPad holder is also made with a strip of leather that covers some of teh hole, I have to push my iPad further into the holder to allow me to plug in properly.

Exactly.... and no USB port

After you make a purchase, an email receipt is sent to the email address used to sign up for iTunes. Again, tehy sometimes take a while to get to you but they will. I have had receipts show up the next day, and others have taken a few days....

I do not think you can upload photos through the Friendly app. You would have to use something like iuploader or the new Social app. AS far as your wifi settings, there are times I lose my connection and have to type in the password again, but those instances are few and far between. Do you...

Congrats on your iPad Now get some apps for it. Goodreader is a great file program Text + is great for use instead of your cell phone for messaging CineXplayer is good for movies AirVideo for watching movies remotely, I am not sure how good this wold be for a college campus
