[QUOTE="totoro, post: 375530, member: 3155"] K has the Netbook and I love it for her. We did a ton of research for the fact of her issues- the netbooks are top rated for kids with Autism and special needs. i-pads are not. So saying that even though it is for easy child- if she is hard on it the netbook will last longer. I have an i-pad. I love it- I have wonderful apps that "all" of the college kids are using for college- one is called "SoundPaper" it records and you can take notes with it. I use it for Docs apts and I used it for our IEP meeting yesterday!!! You can also write with a pencil using your finger to draw examples say from a white board. Or just to doodle on the side of your notes when the Prof. is boring!!! LOL THe other app that is used by most of the college kids is the "Daily Notes" it is just like a Day Trapper or Organizer. Yes you can print with it. All of the extras add up. You can purchase a card for direct link for video and you camera downloads. The case etc.... but the plug will plug directly into my mac PowerBook to upload music and video and it plugs into my printer. The i-books app free is nice and you can download the Kindle app for free, I already had an amazon account. But the typing can get bothersome. The netbooks are cheaper and do everything she can possibly need for school... But for me personally because they were both GIFTS!!! I love the netbook for K and the i-pad for me!!! LOL If it was money i would go with the netbook. one of the problems is that kids "think" i-pads are cool, but for cost and what they need the netbook is likely the smarter choice. [/QUOTE]
