I used the Facetime feature a little, and streamed some music with it. But you can't plug in an SD card or a USB cable. You can't load your own music on it (I'm told there is a way which requires jumping through hoops).
I still have the iPad2. Never use it. It needs to be upgraded and evidently iPad2s require a trip to an Apple store. Since the closest one to me is two hours away, that is not an option. Other brands of tablet's are more flexible, and not restrictive about what you are allowed to do.
I’ve been loading my own music into my I devices since the iphone3GS. I imported my CD rips into iTunes on my desktop and it synced to the I devices.
You’re operating under misinformation.
All false statements. As is the rest of your claims. Why didn't you sell it when it was still worth something?
Putting your own music on the iPad is easy, no hoops more than loading your music into iTunes from a CD. You select what you want on your iPad and send it to the iPad using the included USB cable with the iTunes software. Done.
Perhaps, because you did not bother to upgrade your iPad in a timely manner, you might need to go now to the Apple Store, but I sincerely doubt it. It is old, now, but still useable. Frankly, Gov, you don't know what you are talking about because you never bothered to learn how to use your iPad. YOU listened to the propaganda, instead of bothering to try and use it.
I uploaded my downloaded musician the web and CDs to iTunes. They fixed it up nicely and put the album covers on everything. I did that a while back with no issue.
The iPad too has come a long way since the iPad 2. You may want to give it another try now. I don’t think you will be disappointed.
