Returned a Nexus 7 that has developed a fault after a week and a half, and decided to pay the extra and got an iPad Mini instead. Gonna ask the same as I asked in the 'droid forum when I got the Nexus - am I best installing anti-virus, and if so which would peeps reccomend? I do know iOS is more secure than Android. Apologies if this is a daft question, but the Nexus was my first foray into tablets, and the Mini is my first iOS devicd. Thanks. * +

Nope, no need for anti virus, in fact I don't even know if there are anti virus apps in AppStore, lol. * +

Not even for browsing? Haven't even unboxed it yet. Had to go out again for a while and I'm knackered cos I didn't sleep that well. Couldn't settle cos I was concerned if the Nexus discharged it could have caused another glitch that would have made it tricky to turn back on

And anothe q...how long is the inital fresh out the box charge likely to take? Been told 6-8 hours for a full charge Apologies for the nooby questions I'd rather give it a full charge before setting it up. Don't wanna plug it in and find I have to set it up right away, not while I'm this tired * +

What plzgvhug said 
,my iPad had around 78percent charge in it at 1st boot up, more than enough to set up, download apps and get used to the OS. * +

It was at 85 pc...asked a PSN friend who's an iOS user and he's reccomended letting it run down to below 20 pc before charging.... My intial verdict....Beats the Nexus 7 by a landslide. iOS my be a little less flashy...but it's soooo easy to use. Me a happy Apple user. Never ever thought I'd be saying that * +

,my iPad had around 78percent charge in it at 1st boot up, more than enough to set up, download apps and get used to the OS.I don't use words like Awesomesauce as a rule either...but that's what the Mini is....the prices of cases were a joke though....so ordered one from Amazon for a tenner, with the magnet, a built in stand and a stylus.....though I've got 2 useless Nexus 7 cases now But sod it. I only got 3 paid apps on it, so lost a fiver. But the Play Store was missing loads of things I wanted. My Andrioid buds hate me now though
