thinking of getting an ipad for uni for next year to help me with lectures.
im just worried that the touchscreen will slow my typeing speed down and i wont be able to keep up. should i buy a mini keyboard?
I agree with Peter. Trying to take notes on your iPad would not go well. I would definitely go for a netbook instead. Maybe shoot for a 12" as you will most likely appreciate the extra screen real estate and the ability to multitask.
I have the EeePC 1201N and I love it. Pretty sure they are coming out with a new version of it, plus they now have ones made with aluminum for added durability.

true. your not gonna even get a pendrive working on it. at least not with any add-ons. even with that im not sure if it will work. netbook. or just get a macbook. which is of course more expensive though
The iPad's much more of a consumption device than a creation device. I don't think it would work well for an education environment. Note taking would be difficult and slow and you can't print anything from it. A good ultra-portable notebook would be a much better option IMO.
ipad is great and all. but i kinda think of it as a "home" item. but if u really think u wanna get it then get the bluetooth keyboard. otherwise. a netbook will fit the occasion better
You have the option of the mac bluetooth keyboard as I think this works. However, when you use your student discount you can get a macbook that would be far more useable. I hate the UK pricing of this device as it is far too much and all the people at work have gone off the idea of buying it now.
