I called Apple. Unfortunately the nice fellow helping me did not have any idea if it was a good or bad thing. I have an iPad4 LTE on order and it went from 11/26 delivery date to the Mid-November.

When I ordered (Oct 26 at 3:02 am edt) I got a November 23rd (which meant it will be the 26th before I get the package --- office is closed on the 23rd) date.... now it is saying:

Processing items
Ship date unknown

Delivery date unknown​



I don't think we will see the LTE mini until the Nov 16th or a bit after .... Nov 16th is when Sprint LTE plans start..

Yeah, seriously. I'm all about giving stuff to little kids to help them learn. But a 350 iDevice? You better be getting the best case money can buy, since you already spent that on him.

I'm a 19 year old in college, and I can't remember the last time my spent that much money on an iDevice for christmas, or for anything.

I'm not saying its bad, I just wish my parents had money like you.

My son has been using my regular iPad 2/3 since ive had it and has always treated it with care.....never dropped it. I did buy a Gumdrop case for him which has extra protection however think it will probably be overkill....

3 year old know how to use ipad already? :eek:

Very much so, he can navigate much better than his grandparents, and even teaches his preschool teachers have to do certain things....I have had an iPad since iPad 1 and I believe because of this his educational level is rating at a 4 year old...
