Welcome to the forum Tim! I reckon you'll enjoy that Mini even more now that you're a member.
You’ll find a whole bunch of iPad enthusiasts in this Forum who are only too willing to help other iPad owners and to hear of their experiences. Don’t be afraid to post any questions you may have or use the ‘Search’ button near the top of the Forum web page.

If you don’t already have it you can download a copy of the iPad manual for free.
