That's an interesting take on "this non-password-protected, non-LTE iPad that I do own abruptly stopped letting me look at data I was able to see recently."

It was on the cell network, but it was purchased outright, not under contract.

It does sound like the other commenter's theory that the SIM has "gone bad" may be true, but I had no idea this could happen, and I don't see how that makes it any more valid.

It doesn't make it valid at all. I can still access my Android phone without a SIM card, and in fact I used one on nothing but Wifi as my "landline" for quite a while. The only thing that should break when you remove or damage a SIM card is your ability to connect to a cell network.

Have you removed the sim?

That shouldn't have an impact on whether OP can unlock his iPad, and if it does then the iPad and Apple as a whole needs to evaporate into obscurity ASAP.

I tried removing the SIM, but that did not help.
