$100 ipad worth it?

[strongbad]

my friend is looking to part with his ipad since he just got a macbook air
he's down to give it up for $100. i think it's first gen (maybe 2nd)

i was planning on buying a nexus 7 in the near future (lol i've been planning this for like a year but regardless) but do you think this is a worthwhile deal? i wouldn't buy it and sell it for more, since that'd be a dick move. huhhh???

[PLEASEHELP1991]

ipad 2 for $100? good deal
first generation ipad? nah

I think the ipad 2 has that retna screen thing

I think the ipad 2 has that retna screen thing

doesn't have retina screen, but has ios 7 support unlike the first one that only supports ios 5

i've heard ios7 is horrid on the 2
i probably wouldn't do it idk

[Snowy]

I've noticed that iOS7 is really slow and laggy on an iPhone 4S, which is newer than the iPad2, yeah?

[PLEASEHELP1991]

my experience with ios7 is solely on the original ipad mini
it runs well on mine and has the same hardware as the ipad 2

what use would you have for a first gen ipad

[strongbad]

it's gen 2
i think i'm going to buy it
it'll be a good life upgrade since my laptop is huge and the battery is dead so i wouldn't have to lug it around with a power cord everywhere

Make sure you get dis when it comes out

fuck my friend was looking up how much his ipad 2 was actually worth and now he wants way more for it (which is reasonable)
back to the drawing board...
