So ios5 continues to have issues for me on the iPad. It's now to the point where iTunes won't let me into the app store more than 50% of the time because the iPad forces me to use the @gmail account that it forced me to create as a part of the ios5 install. When it lets me revert back to my old itunes account name (seemingly at whim) I have no issues, but so far today it won't let me log into that account and it has me about mad enough to sell the thing. Cherry on the cake is that I can't log into the @gmail account either because it won't let me validate that account because the email address is associated with another account. Not that I want to activate that account since I don't want two fucking itunes accounts. Apple support is goddamn useless and I've found tons of threads online saying this is a known issue and users are invited to purchase a support package for any apple product out of the 90 day free support window to get it sorted. Fuck me.
