Exchanging my iPad

I bought my new iPad (wifi only) 10 days ago. I didn't do enough research to see that this model wasn't GPS capable. Now the store I purchased it from is saying that because I have turned the unit on and registered it that they won't take it back for an exchange to the 4G. Any thoughts on how I can get an exchange/upgrade? Thanks in advance.

Try an Apple store. They are generally more open to any returns, and it is Apple's policy to exchange without question within 14 days.

I learned that info the hard way too...
 
Worst case scenario you can buy a Bluetooth gps that will work with your iPad. It will cost you about the same as upgrading to 4g, but you can still use it on the iPad 4,5,6...

Yes, I did this with my iPad 2. It worked well with a wifi only iPad. This time, I went whole hog. :)
