The iPad is a device that is relatively unique and new. It is an interesting mix between a PDA and a laptop computer. With it's full touch screen and user friendly interface, it is a relatively easy device to use and get used to. The iPad is a wonderful tool for presentations and using the internet. It is not necessarily the best for drafting papers or doing any extensive writing, but once written on a computer, the document can be easily edited on the iPad.
The popularity of the iPad may not be very high, but I believe that in years to come the iPad will be a useful tool in streamlining the education process and helping teachers and students alike stay in more constant connection.
