Would rather have a laptop IMO. Though having an iPad at all would be cool too.
The iPad is strictly aimed at mainly being a device for consuming entertainment multimedia. You shouldn't abuse it for education.

This is kind of all right I guess. I don't really see the point though personally. Also, I could imagine the amount of dicking around will increase by like 200%. Another downside is that you can't even draw dicks on the pictures on the iPad, something every schoolboy has to experience at some point.

Private schools can waste money all they want. The biggest impact out of this might be an increased tuition to compensate.
