iPad Changing How College Textbooks Are Used

As college students return to classes this school year, many have a way of avoiding buying all those textbooks. The iPad is allowing students to carry just one device, and possibly save money along the way. The AP's Haven Daley has more. (Sept. 2)

Actually our school is using iPad now instead of notebooks. We use the Ghostwriter Notes app to take down notes. Available via majorspot[dot]com and this app can be yours too!

I don't understand how taking notes on an ipad is faster or easier than OneNote on a laptop.

I am glad I came across this video so I can share it. My cousin still till this date isn't interested in an iPad because he thinks it's just a big iPod. Not even an iPad can be as useful as this in school. I'm awaiting my iPad 2 in the mail :D

@PolishCutie93 I know there's course smart app which has lots of textbooks. There is also some places that sell textbooks as pdfs such as Nelson Brain.

The problem with them both is the textbooks have a limited time use 6 months/a year, if anyone knows any way of getting eTextbooks for an indefinite period of time, tell me.
