[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1628769, member: 234411"] Hi again - I would strongly discourage you from buying a 16 GB model, especially if you are planning on putting music, videos, magazines, books, etc. on the device. I bought the iPad Air 2 w/ 64 GB and once the device was restored and my books & magazines were updated, I transferred over 100 hrs. of MP3 music - I now have about 30 GB of storage left, and will likely add some more music (although w/ Spotify & the Amazon MP3 apps on the device + bluetooth speakers & headphones, I should have enough! ;)) And keep in mind that you are NOT getting 16 GB of storage, i.e. a small portion (maybe about 3 GB) will be used for the iOS and native apps; for a good discussion, [URL="http://www.gottabemobile.com/2014/10/23/why-you-shouldnt-buy-the-16gb-ipad-air-2//"]READ THIS[/URL]. If your budget is the issue, i.e. the 64 GB iPad Air 2 (a 32 GB model is not offered) vs. a less expensive model w/ at least 32 GB of storage and you want the device now, then really your choice - good luck.
