Apple saw a need for a smaller more efficient handheld computer to replace Microsoft’s notebook. They developed a small handheld computer that weighs 1.5 pounds and fits on a table or in a bag. The IPad was anticipated even before it was released for sale. Success media coverage made the IPad the new device to own.
The IPad can download complete textbooks and the information can be updated to give the student the most current information. No more outdated information.
