Ipad is no longer strange for most people ,in many places ,we can see people use ipad, playing game, checking email ,surfing the internet, but the first impression of ipad to me is E-book. The design of book-reader is so vivid and true, seems like reading in the library.
On the screen, there is a book shelf, people can choose book by touching screen, amazing function. And then when you are reading, you can slide pages with your finger. In a word, it is humanized design.
The following video shows E-book in Ipad has much effect in teaching and learning. We all know the periodic system of elements is hard to memorize and elements are too abstract to imagine, ipad provides 3D effect which can promote and support learning.

Compared with itouch,E-book reading in ipad seems better than itouch, due to the size of screen. can we say ipad is enlarged version of itouch?

In terms of me,I like reading through Itouch ,watching videos through ipad.
this activity theme is mobile learning tool, in this aspect, itouch is more like a mobile one while ipad is like a computer one~~~
i am thinking about parchasing an iPad because E-book reader is totally attractive,but someone said iPad can't support audio and video(online face to face),that's too shame.
