Looking to buy an iPad Air for my wife.
Happy with the 1st ones rather than the 2 but appears to be countless model numbers, etc and some places a lot cheaper than Apple.
Any tips appreciated?
If you're like me and mainly use it at home, go for the larger screen and whatever you do - forget the 3G options. I have it, but I use it about once/year. It's a waste. In particular when you can easily use your phone as a hotspot if needed.
Should you still decide to go 3G don't sign up for one of those monthly deals. Wait and see how you use your device. You should be able to get a sim card and go with a pre paid (top up?) option.
I'd avoid the 16GB one. I have a 32 Gb, but next time, I'll go 64 GB. Why? Because I like to be able to put photos on it and when I travel, I want to be able to have 3-4 films on it. I'm sure you can find ways to work around it, but that's how I see it. When I've taken photos, I want to see them on my Ipad, because it's the best screen I have.
