Re: [iPad] iPad addiction and withdrawal - why Apple's tablet dominatesAppleTell
I agree. I didn't buy it for that. That would require pure sine. Price goes up. I was running small aquarium air pumps. Five of them. I moved a 40 gallon saltwater reef tank to Arizona and back a year later. Moved the fish in five gallon buckets. Cured rock doesn't need air for two days.
> It's rated for 400 watts, and has terminals for a 12 volt battery. Also has a cig lighter plug. Cig lighter produces less watts. I use it to power a air pump for my fish tank in our coach when moving. Nice unit for $34.
For $34, it's unlikely to produce power "clean" enough for sensitive electronics, however.

Mactracker is overkill for this single use, but it is VERY thorough:
<http://mactracker.ca/faq.html>
The only ones being sold new, now, are the latest (iPad Air, the 5th generation) and the iPad 2. And of course the 2 iPad Mini's.
They both have the same physical screen size; the Air is lighter, thinner, with a narrower bezel, and a "Retina" display. The 2 has the lower-resolution display.

Re: [iPad] Re: Hotspot feature

Exactly what I did, until I had need of the hotspot function, when I switched.
When I checked later, I discovered my wife never came anywhere near the next level below unlimited, so we started saving around $120/year or more on that iPhone.

Re: [iPad] iPad Model Numbers & Names
Can someone point me to a list of the "official" names or numbers of the
various models of iPads (regular size) and when they came out?
Mine is the model that came out in spring 2012, which I understood at
the time was model 3. Since then I think two more models have come out,
which I would call 4 and 5.
But -- I looked on http://www.macsales.com/ for a previously owned iPad
for a friend. The only ones I see are what they call iPad 2. Is that
older than mine, or has the numbering system changed?
http://www.apple.com/ipad/compare/ seems to have only the current models.
Looking for a list with all of them, including dates.
