My daughter has the new Ipad and I steal it whenever she isn't looking. I am just learning my way around but it is neat. I can use it on QB and to Google. You can take pictures with it but not as good quality as a camera. You can set it up for reading books but we haven't done that yet. The print is easy to enlarge to read and you can flip from screen to screen with your fingertip. There are lots of neat app's for games to play. I can watch Youtube quilting videos on it. I am sure there are lots of other things it is capable of that I have yet to discover.
