I suppose it says something that I'm typing this from my laptop and not from the iPad. This week was really busy and my poor iPad sat largely untouched. I suppose since I'm more comfortable with my laptop, I'm quicker with it, and default to it when pressed for time.
I hope I don't sound like a broken record, but it did come in handy for our ballroom club. I transferred our music from my laptop to the iPad and had considerably less to carry across campus to our meeting. It also was much easier manipulate to get music started quickly and pause it in between practice sets. It plugged right into the headphone jack and off we went! I really feel that this device might be of most use to music, dance, and theater students who need portable media for their coursework and preparation for assignments.
While I don't mind reading on it, the way I take notes in my reading-heavy classes is really more conducive to using the print text.
I do like that you can search the text to find things easily (that really helps in my Shakespeare Lit class), and that you can easily highlight and copy/paste text. Perhaps I need to make more use of those functions...
