You know what I see this as? A killer student device. If the schools keep to the WiFi version, the 16GB model would hold a year's worth of textbooks, give access to the school's printers and the resource libraries. A student (whether elementary, high school or college) would be able to read the textbooks, take notes, compose reports and do homework all without having to lug around all those expensive, constantly-outdated, easy-to-get-damaged paper textbooks that cost so much! I could see the school districts getting student discounts and the students taking the iPad from grade school onward. Would save the backs of little kids, that's for sure.
