If you didn't buy the iPad in the last couple of weeks, then it's an iPad 2 (or an iPad 1 if it lacks cameras). If you purchased in the last couple of weeks, your order/invoice information should tell you what you bought if for some reason you're confused.

Regards.

Unbelievable, mind-blowing, just plain hard to understand why any company doesn't just put the Apple # on the product. Wow, get me in the Apple production line. FIRST CHANGE: ADD APPLE # ONTO iPAD. Otherwise keep things nice and creative, plenty of snackrooms, and sun rooms for natural Vitamin-D induced naps. Thank you.

The model number is on the back on the iPad. The MD numbers are sales and configuration numbers, not model numbers, and can vary from area to area (as for instance with the language of the packaging) where the model number usually does not. But you can comment to Apple via their feedback pages, if you wish:
