The screen kept flashing; the button on screen and on the unit either did not work or performed different functions. The charge value was between 27-37%. The unit could not be powered down. I put it on charge and after a few minutes it performed normally. My first thought was that my daughter had loaded some new app but this morning I read that a large solar flare engulfed the earth last night. Did anyone else experience any strange computer phenomena last night? ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:38:19 AM PST US Subject: Re: RV10-List: Apple users From: Ed Kranz Nothing strange on my iPad. Did you try to force a power-down by holding both buttons for more than 5 seconds? I've had some iDevices freeze until a hard reset. If it's still acting up, there is always the Genius Bar. They've replaced hardware for me, even when the failure was my fault (like dropping my 1 day old iPhone 4), or my MacBook motherboard even though I bought it 4.5 years ago.

Maybe your current i Pad heard you talking about the new one and got jelous? Actually no issues with our 3 iPads here. I have never been prevented from doing a forced shutdown. When all else fails I force the shutdown and resta rt and that resolves any issue I have had to date. Oh, and I did order the new ipad yesterday but not within ear shot of my current unit.

The news said it may effect GPS and other sensitive electronics.
