In-Depth Information
Figure 15-9:
You find info about your iPad under About.
Network you use (3G or 4G only):
AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, or Verizon
Number of songs stored on the device
Number of videos
Number of photos
Number of apps
Storage capacity used and available:
Because of the way the device is formatted, you al-
ways have a little less storage than the advertised amount of flash memory.
Software version:
As this book goes to press, we're up to version 7.04. But as the software
is tweaked and updated, your device takes on a new build identifier, indicating that it's just a
little bit further along than some previous build. So you see, in parentheses next to the ver-
sion number, a string of numbers and letters that looks like 11B554a and tells you more pre-
cisely what software version you have. The number/letter string changes whenever the iPad's
software is updated and is potentially useful to some tech-support person who might need to
know the precise version you're working with.
