Target offers $ 200 trade for ANY working iPad

I'm curious on what you find in stock....color, memory, etc. I'd hate to wipe my iPad and run it in only to find they don't have the one I want. If you have a backup on your computer is it possible to wipe an iPad directly on it's own?

Oh, it looks like in settings on the iPad you can erase it directly. Cool!

I know the Target clostest to my office has soild out of Air, but have plenty of iPad 2's and Mini's.

I went to the closest Target to my home and though their website said they had the Air in stock they were actually sold out. I had them check other stores and put one on hold for me because they were all very low in stock in my area. If you're thinking of upgrading I'd definitely call first and make sure they have what you want before you wipe yours.  And yes I did of course do a "restore to factory settings" before I traded my old one in.

The Air is a very light device and also very fragile. If you have not done so already I would advise buying a "protection" plan from Squaretrade Warranty. I bought a three year plan for my new Samsung Galaxy 10.1 2014 tablet for only $140.00. If you go to their Facebook page and sign up for their newsletter they will send you an email with a 30% off code. That's how I got it so cheap because it would usually run around $170.00. Peace of mind for three years is worth it to me. Just be sure that when you register it on their website (after paying of course) that you follow all the prompts and email them a scanned copy of your receipt. I had considered getting the new Ipad but ultimately the new Samsung won out because I just prefer Android's OS and also owning a Samsung Galaxy S4 already it made compatability an easier factor for me. The Air is a really nice speedy tablet though with a beautiful display. Enjoy your new Ipad!

thanks Kevin. I'm going with Apple Care because of the high level of support they offer while under warranty with them.
