Well, I have already set up Apple Pay on my iPad mini but I was surprised at how large it is. At first I thought they sent the wrong one.

I was expecting something the size of a Kindle, this is quite a bit bigger. It weighs about the same.

I am very careful with tracking where my stuff is all the time. It comes with paranoia, lol

The iPad mini 3 comes with touch ID which is very cool. I really like it on my iPhone.

Got the magnetic leather case so I should be fine. Thanks for your advice, I appreciate it.

To: Not gonna take it anymore

I was thinking about getting an iPad Mini for our little boy, who has Autism, although he is what they call “high functioning.” He grabs my iPad every chance he gets, when I’m not looking. He knows better than to grab it when I am looking ... :-) ...

There are quite a few apps to help deal with and manage Autism (actually a very large number). I would get one of those cases where you could bounce the iPad off the floor and nothing would happen to it.

That size iPad is more in keeping with his size.

A little side note here ... whenever our little boy grabs the iPad and starts fiddling, if it has already gone into its sleep mode ... when he gets it, he’s pushing those buttons on the keypad (for the Passcode) and he ALWAYS locks up my iPad for me ... LOL ...

I get back in the room and pick up the iPad, and it tells me I’ve been locked out because of too many failed tries for the Passcode. So far he’s never gotten me locked out so bad that I am forced to call Apple to get it unlocked. BUT, maybe he will one of these days ... :-) ...

SO ... that’s one of those things you have to be aware of with little kids around. They can get you locked out of your iPad, so that you have to call Apple to get it unlocked!! (That would also be little kids at someone else’s house that you may be visiting.)
