I have noticed that my Ipad will start by itself if I plug it to charger even I it was off. Does each Ipad behave this way?

Yes, it needs to be on to charge.


Not true like the iPod and iPhone they boot when plugged in but can be switch off buy holdingthe power button.

I think apple made it boot on the assumption it'll be syncing.

I didn't realize you could power down after it started charging. I don't think I'd ever need to, but good to know. Thanks!

I offen power my iPhone down to charge it rather than using airport mode.
