The 1st Gen iPad max iOS will be 5.1.1
Mine is not jail break and many apps that required cyanogenmod cannot be installed....
many apps also very lag in this iPad

What to do with it?

1. Sell off cheap?
2. used as "very big" remote for my home theater?
3. used as digital photo frame?
4. keep in case and hopefully can sell off very expensively in 20 years time? tongue.gif

Digital photo frame, or sell while there is still value. The longer you wait, the less valuable it is...

It's time for a change; a change for your car's music player!

Install your iPad in your car as a 9.7 inch touchscreen music player thumbup.gif

You can use it as an e-book/magazine/news reader and put it inside your toilet.

I disagree as the memory is too little and that just cause Safari to crash so often especially graphic heavy webpage. Very irritating.

I don't think is worth it to sell. its worth now at what? RM300? at that price better keep it for surfing net or playing very light casual games when u're bored. unless if you really need money la then only sell
