To be honest, if Apple has a way to unlock this iPad, then hackers can do it too. If I were apple, I would have just said no way from the get go. Now the cat is out of the bag and they will get bad press from this. Also, does apple want to go on record for doing this after someone passes away? People pass all the time. I would not want to provide a service for unlocking iPads as a service. Again, it will be no time before third parties will figure out how to do it and offer it as a service on the web. Finally, the mom could have told some one the lock code or disabled the lock code herself. There is a chance that she might have wanted someone not to know what was on it.
Hmmm.... After reading this you managed to change my point of view now.
