How much are they giving yoh

 

 

Sent from my iPhone 6 on Crapatalk

Got $280 for a 32GB model. 

Shipping off my iPad Air to Gazelle tomorrow.  Getting the iPA2 as soon as their check clears.  

Is there a website with the current carrier plans for day-to-day or month-to-month iPad plans you buy on the device without needing any contract?  I can't seem to find one that isn't pretty old.

Useless bitching commence: Why is it that the iPad air 2 is .8 mm smaller than iPhone 6, and yet the camera is safely tucked inside.

They use different cameras.  Notice that the iPA2 can only do 120fps slomo while the iP6 does 240.  Also the iPA2 stops down to a ƒ/2.4 aperture while the iP6 goes down to ƒ/2.2.

I wonder what the likelihood is of the iPhone 6+ eventually killing off the iPad mini.  

Looking at the buying process of the iPA2, it's nice to not have to choose the cell provider anymore. Still not sure if I'll get the wifi-only or the LTE version.  Decisions, decisions.

Being able to switch freely among carriers is going to be awesome.  I love my Sprint coverage, but right now only AT&T gets coverage at my parents and grandmother's.  

If this is true I may get the LTE version.

Looking at the comparison page, you're right.  They should just drop the number thing anyway.  Everyone knows there's a new one each year.

And I looked more closely at the LTE page and the mini 3 still does not have Spark.  Only B25/B26 bands.

Not that it's a surprise, but the iPad Air 2 Cellular model will have Spark: https://www.apple.com/ipad/LTE/

It is a surprise though, that the new iPad mini 3 will not have Spark.

I'm happy they finally updated the mini, though it's too late for me as I ended up finding a good deal on an older iMac instead when I needed a new one earlier this year.

Can't believe there still hasn't been an Apple TV update.  

For those that want to livestream this event and are on Windows:

I'm getting one of the new Airs but need to sell my old one.

Same with lifeproof. It's kind of stupid that these two don't have a case out yet.

You can't force it, but make sure you're running the most recent PRL by dialing ##UPDATE# in the dialer.

I may be in the minority, but it's kind of nice to have a tablet on a separate carrier. I have a work-issued Retina Mini on AT&T -- it's great to have a fallback if needed.

I did the same thing when I used to have an iPad 2.  I got it with Verizon even though I was a T-Mobile person at the time so I could have two carriers.  

The Lightning-to-SD card reader is great if you are out and about using a real camera, I don't think it was intended to be a good way to transfer files on a regular basis outside of being able to download pictures from a real camera. I use it on my iPad with great success, but only on vacation.

I only use it for transferring photos from an SD card in a game camera by a deer feeder of ours.  Just tested with my wife's iPhone 5 and it doesn't work there either.  I could have swore that it worked with the iPhone 5 when it was an older iOS version, but at least it still works with my iPad Air on iOS 8.

Anyone use the Lightning-SDCard adapter?  It doesn't seem to work with the iPhone 6, and I could have swore it worked with my 5. 

Damn thing is so thin makes my iPad 3 look like a brick..... Anyway this will be the iPad I upgrade to, since it will have Spark...... My time on Verizon will finally be over....

I keep going back and forth on whether to get an iPad Air with LTE or stick with the WiFi only route like last time.  $130 for GPS and a few rare times where I'm wifiless just doesn't seem worth it.

Oops yeah.

Hoping the rumors are true and it has Touch ID and 2GB RAM.

Supposedly the next Apple event will be on the 16th. 

So we can map with Speedtests, but we can't map for coverage. On the iOS app, you can view a speedtests map, and it will show where we ran the test and got what speeds, but if you go to the coverage maps, you can't map with that.

You can map coverage using RootMetrics.  It does speed tests too.

SMS Continuity is coming with iOS 8.1. That explains why the 8.1 beta dropped so fast.

Not really. I assumed from the get-go that Apple Pay would be part of 8.1.  Apple usually increments the tenth spot for major feature improvements.

Glad SMS continuity is coming soon, though. 

Saw the 6+ in an Apple Store for the first time today.  Pleased with my 6 purchase.  Was surprised that my wife prefers the 6+ over the 6 with her small hands.  She has an iPad mini, so if she gets a 6+ one day she can get probably get rid of that.

iOS 8.1 Beta released, now to wait for someone to upload a copy...

Any detIls on its features?
