Apple disables iPad for 48 years after toddler runs amok

James Smith 5

Regular occurence here...

Working in a school with dozens of pupil iPads lockouts happen frequently, we can clear the passcode via MDM(Mobile device management) while the wifi's connected and then via an ethernet dongle but once it says 'Connect to iTunes' thats it... time to recover from a backup :( the longest I've seen is 1hr prior to the itunes message.

When they've managed to sign out of iCloud 3+ months ago things get REALLY interesting!

Amazon floats 'Prime Air' drone delivery plan

Greate as a concept

For a 30 minute delivery you're expecting this is great but would you really want it dropping your packages on your lawn while you're not there? or dropping it in the road because you're GPS coords were a little off

I'd also have to fight the urge to kidnap the damn thing every time it landed, they'd probably need a drone recovery squad at every depot!

I hope this becomes a reality, will be interesting to see what the final solution looks like, I'm thinking tasers and sentry guns!
