I bought an iPad from someone on TexAgs that was new in box. Once I opened it and tried to set it up, it required credentials for an IBM employee to finish setup. I contacted the seller and he told me that he won it from IBM at a tech conference and that there were no strings attached as far as he knew. Seems like some marketing person grabbed an iPad from IT without realizing it had some sort of custom IBM-locked firmware on it, right?
So all that aside, how do I get the thing working? I am updating iOS so I can try to boot to DFU mode, but I'm not sure if this will help. I also have an appointment at a Genius bar for tomorrow. Any ideas in the mean time?
