iPad question - NOT amateur radio

Although Steve G1KQH kindly solved the problem of my wife being unable to email photos from her gallery, we still have the mystery why the battery now seems to drain so much faster. This suddenly changed.

Although I cannot be sure, it does not seem to be the cells.

I am wondering, as an experiment, if there is a way of loading older software versions to see if this change is, or is not, linked to a software change.

Apple iPad software change?

My wife has had an Apple iPad for some years, but just recently the battery life has suddenly got dramatically worse. It was always very good. Now it seems to flatten the battery far more quickly.  I am pretty sure this is not the cells. Also, she could always send photos from her gallery by Gmail. She has plenty of room in her account on Gmail.

It is almost as if the latest software has somehow been "doctored" so the battery runs down faster and some Gmail things don't work any longer, so you are tempted to buy a new one! I am not saying this is so, just that this is how it appears.

Any whistle blowers know the facts?

iPad case with keyboard ....but why???

http://www.senacases.com/ has a case for the Apple iPad which incorporates a Bluetooth connected full keyboard. Excuse me, but why not just buy a netbook at far less half the price in the first place? In the UK there is a range of netbooks available around £180-220 whereas the cheapest iPad is over £400.

Apple iPad tablet launched

Apple has finally revealed its new killer product - the iPad. My son has an iPhone and is very pleased with it. I doubt I will be persuaded to buy either. I have been tempted with the Apple iPod Touch which is a very desirable product.
