I don't think we in Europe can magically break an iPad just by it being here, ![]()
But connecting to the internet may be a problem. Here's Apple's guide to that; http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4056
And there's another one here which might tell more; http://ask.metafilter.com/144560/Can-I-use-the-iPad-in-Europe
If no wifi networks are available the iPad will attempt to connect using a Cellular Data Network and if you have a cell phone that you would normally use to connect an iPad to the internet in the US, that network might not be available to you over here.
Make sure you have the correct chargers available and you might need an all purpose mains adapter as Europe doesn't have a unified mains voltage setup as far as I know
iPad3? As usual with Apple, rumours just rumours, like this one; http://ipad3newsblog.com/tag/ipad-3-release-date/
Apple will let us all know when it is released.
Hope that helps.

I am planing to buy an ipad from US and I will be using it mainly in Europe. Do you think it will work well in Europe and even other parts of the world?
Secondly I hear that there is an Ipad3 coming soon, is there anything true in it?
