Learning just got a whole lot easier

Learning just got a whole lot easier Whether at school, college or university, textbooks are the bane of a students' day. They are heavy to carry, especially when you have more than one. They're expensive, and in this fast-paced world, they can become out of date quickly.

The iPad can already do so much, now it can do so much more.
You can potentially have all of your textbooks on your iPad.

The iPad weighs well under a kilogram, much lighter than just one textbook. The iPad can store dozen of textbooks, allowing you to carry about all you need and more.

Music, Films, Books and Games are examples of media that is available in a physical and a digital copy, and most of the time, the digital version is cheaper. It is cheaper because there is no need for any type of manufacturing or physical distribution. Who says the same can't happen for textbooks? Cash-strapped students will surely welcome any chance to save money.

Paper textbooks, once printed, cannot be changed. In the digital form, your textbook can be updated with the latest information, keeping you on the cutting edge.

Textbooks are accessible from a new (free) app for the iPad called iBooks 2.
Just search for "iBooks" within the App Store on the iPad.
