Yes there is 3G service for iPad, but the setup is often in store at the apple store or AT&T/Verizon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay, so this woman who's saying she can't find where to plug it in--she's full of shit. If my cousin's iPad can't get cell, she's permanently SOL. My cousin is being told she's missing a port or something.
Thanks.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
No port at all. You need to have phone service and iTunes to activate it.

Jessica,
re: your chrome problems, I think you need to download Chrome Beta. Which apparently is not the browser I was using on this computer. I'm downloading it now.

Okay, I'm annoyed by my Kindle Fire. I can't use a mini-USB cable to connect to it. WTF. How am I supposed to port stuff over onto it?

With a micro USB cable?

... which was not included with my Kindle. I knew Amazon didn't want people putting anything different on the machine, but this is ridiculous.

It's one of the ways they are hitting the low price point. They don't include the cable. On the Kindle Touch they don't include the power adapter.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
That's the same with the Nook Simple. It came with the cable but not the wall plug.
But the Nook Color came with its own, proprietary USB cable & adapter. Which, what part of "universal" are we not understanding here? Yes, I know, different power requirements. But nonetheless, I stand on the principle.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
On the Kindle Touch they don't include the power adapter.
Yeah, that's annoying. Although I wonder whether I can just use the same adapter I use for my Shuffle. If it has a plug and a USB port, that's all I need, right?
