iPad to the rescue...sort of!

So I have done enough iPad bashing to prove I am an android guy.  That being said I will now say something nice about it.  I was recently stuck in a lab where my cell service was, let's just say, less then stellar.  I was able to still make a phone call to a vendor from the tablet under wifi.  The sound quality was excellent and the person on the other end had no issue hearing me.  Sure, I could have done this from an android device but I was impressed with the sound quality on the iPad.  I will say I think it might even be slightly better then the android I own personally.  Now if only I could figure out how to multitask on it I would be a happy man.  

My original idea of sharing this tablet in my class does not seem to be a possibility, unless I first remove my email.  I would not want to give a student a divide with my work email attached and not stand over them watching every little thing they do.  

I read a Blog post on this blog Bout using the iPad to present at meetings.  I wonder if they have made a decision about the use of the projector cable or Apple TV.  Either way I would love to see something in place before school starts up.

Lastly, I love the fact that I have my text books loaded on this device.  It means I will always have them with me for student questions and student help.  I love the fact that I do not have to carry 2 text books and a lab manual to and from school daily
