APPLE Inc has decided to recall some of the iPad2 tablets that are designed to run on Verizon's network because of some connectivity issues. According to an Apple spokeswoman, "Duplicate MEID codes were flashed into an extreme small number of iPad units for the Verizon 3G network". She however did not comment on how many such units were affected by this issue. Verizon too offered no comments on the matter.
MEID which stands for mobile equipment identifier, is a unique code assigned to each mobile device and is used in identifying the device when it connects to a network. No two devices can have the same MEID code. Apple will be replacing the affected units that have already been sold with new ones.
