Hi all.
I relented and got the wife an iPad.
she loves it, I love it (enough to consider getting rid of my macbook) and unfortunately so does my 4 yr old!
Now I have no objection to him playing with it, he loves angry birds HD and painting etc.
What I do have an issue with is him being able to access email, settings, facebook etc etc.
I have looked into the restrictions thing, and it kind of helps, gets rid of the app store,safari and any apps that have a decent rating.
But, he can still access enough to cause issues (shutting off wifi, playing in itunes etc)
Is there anyway to kid proof these things- with literally just selected apps, no settings, no itunes etc
if not someone should design an app that does it!!
