    I'd go with the Manager's idea re chucking it down the stairs. You won't see a rise in your premiums at all and will get a shiny new iPad.

    Absolutely. If all else fails, commit insurance fraud.
    One important thing to remember is that when you get to the end of this sentence, you'll realise it's just my sig.

    Heres something to try

    1. Create another windows user account on your PC
    2. Log into this account
    3. Right click iTunes and run as administrator
    4. Put the device into DFU mode and attempt a restore

    If it still fails then post the restore log, its found under program files \apple etc....

    You could also try using recovery fix or tiny umbrella to kick the iPad out of a stuck restore state

    Or maybe steal one from a shop which will also get you a nice shiny new iPad?
