The charging port on my several year old iPad failed...won't allow the

AppleCare, and as the stores are not doing any repair work these days,
at least not around here, Apple said it would send me a return box and
as soon as it received the box back, it would send me a *NEW* iPad of
the same vintage and memory size, at no cost, and if it didn't have one
of my vintage in stock, it would send me a current model.

Oh, and the support guy spoke "American-ese" and was in Pennsylvania.

Happy New Year!



And if you figure what you paid for Apple Care and the repair fee, you most
likely could have bought a new iPad.
