[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1622970, member: 175845"] My only experience with iPads has been with the used 16GB iPad 2 my eldest son gave me while I was in hospital for several weeks last year, and a used 64GB iPad 3 retina we got from him earlier this year. Both are on iOS 7.1.2 as we don't need or have any use for any of the newer iOS 8.x "features". Personally I find them handy for some things but also quite frustrating and limited for other stuff. I got so fed up with mine and so much of Apple's restrictions that I jailbroke it, mainly so that I could clean off so much of the surplus crap Apple insists on installing, like surplus languages etc. I was able to clean out almost 4GB of unnecessary crap!!! Not a bad saving on a limited 16GB iPad!! ;) Good luck on your search. But I'm not sure what the Canadian Apple Store may have for any Black specials. I do know I got an Airport Express 3rd gen for a decent "Black" saving about two years ago. So maybe they'll have some iPads. But also check their [B]Refurbished[/B] section - always usually a good place to buy and save some money. [/QUOTE]
