Fix the memory leak problem else I'll consider no other iPad's in the future.

Ahhh, was wondering what caused it to do that. Seems like after I power it off it is better for a time but yes, it crashes out on Safari or some programs.

SLRdude · 8 March 2012, 06:37 AM

I have four monitors all attempting to pre order and I cannot get through.

Their store is currently unavailable. I tried to pre-order as well.

rr-nyc · 8 March 2012, 06:48 AM

Store is live now. The only thing lacking is 128GB but it certainly won't stop me from getting this to replace my ipad2. The hotspot feature is great too

:edit: Store WAS live. I hit back than forward and I got the "We'll be back soon" page.

SLRdude · 8 March 2012, 07:48 AM

Pre ordered a white 64.

rolexjim · 8 March 2012, 07:57 AM

FWIW, I've had my iPad 2 for 6 months or so and never had Safari crash...in fact, it has worked flawlessly. Between my wife, myself, and my daughter, it probably sees 8-10 hours of use every day.
I wish everything were this reliable.

Me too. Never once had any crash on either of our iPads since we got them last May. These things just work, and do everything we need, so will likely just wait for the iPad 4.

Lol-x · 8 March 2012, 08:16 AM

The processor is actually a dual core, but the graphics is quad core

Lanfor · 8 March 2012, 09:53 AM

Hmmmm not much use to me since we don't even have 4G over here

Launch Mini · 8 March 2012, 10:10 AM

I'm happy with my IP2 for the time.
Won't be rushing out for one.
I don't recall ever experiencing those crashes in Safari. The Facebook app craps out occassionally. Need to reboot. But this hasn't happened for months now. Probably an app issue.

You are lucky. Happens to me everyday all the time. Very irritating and no fix yet. Apple can't address it- tried with tech and they are at a loss. Check Apple Forums as it is all over them.

There is a well known memory cache problem that causes crashes. One must be patient when pages that have mixed rich media (flash + other elements) are loading. If, for example, you do the apple.com>mac>lionOSX>Features sequence Mik mentioned it will crash if the cache overflows or loads wrong.

Prolly because the limited 256MB cache overflows and sends a reset to iOS. It also happens on some Apps. I didn't see if the new iPad has a larger cache - the tech specs I found didn't go that deep.

Actually--not sure what patience has to do with it but it constantly crashes with simple functions like doing a quote within a post and replying to a simple pm. I have to type response in notes and copy and paste to pm. Not sure how media rich that is.

PS. I am all Apple as well--iphone4s, iMac, and ipad2.

rolexjim · 8 March 2012, 10:57 AM

With the number of units sold, there are bound to be some issues for sure. I, myself, just pre-ordered a new 3. The 2 will be passed down.
