I did really like that tablet.

I 'inherited' my late sister's old iPad. I went to charge it, one day, and NADA. I took it to Apple and they pretty much told me they can't be bothered fixing older devices. So I kind of put it aside. I'm not that impressed with Apple products to spend that kind of money on a replacement. Which is why I bought the Samsung.

Then I checked with local place and they said they fix these older iPads, all the time, and it most likely just needed a new battery. Since they have a free estimate, I'm going to drop it off. Heck, if they find they can't fix it, I'm not out any $$.
