    Hi Nickolas,
    My name is Jennifer Hackney and I am assigned to comment on your blog this week. I have enjoyed looking through your blog and you are doing a great job. I enjoyed listening to your podcast. Your group pointed out some great pros and cons of ipads in education. I like the idea of having ipads in schools, but you are right who is going to pay for them? I know I would like one, but they are pricey. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your future post.

    The cons you pointed out are very worthwhile! Battery life, slow wifi, zero multitasking capabilities... I can't wait til the iPad 2 comes out to see if they address these issues.

    This was very informative, but since you are such a tech-wizard and a future educator, I want to know what you think about the investment for students and iPads. Do you think it is a cost effective learning tool? You also mentioned the notebook. Would that be a wiser decision?
