I purchased an iPad. The thing locked up/crashed twice in less than a week. The Apple rep I corresponded with finally instructed me to stick a pin inot the hole and restart the thing. After two times doing that and losing all the things I had put on the device, I took it back to Sam's and got a full refund. That refund paid for an Android tablet and a 64gb card with adapter, for $150 less than just the iPad.

You're only writing two at a time? LOL

I have never had an iPad crash/lockup. Never in almost five years of using one. Nor have any of my co-workers, office staff who use one daily, or friends who have them.

Frankly, MHGinTN, I don't have a clue what you are talking about. There is no PIN HOLE for restarting an iPad. No where. Restarting an iPad is accomplished by holding the Home button and the Power button simultaneously for ten seconds which forces a cold shut down. The only such hole would be to remove a SIM card on a Cellular enabled iPad. . . and that would not restart the iPad. Therefore, I simply do not believe you.

Two entirely different genres. . . when I get blocked on one, move over to the other. One is a thriller. . . the other is Science Fiction.
