Australian Schools Go iPad-Crazy

Posted by timothy on Tuesday September 21, 2010 @10:23PM from the all-nu-perfect-forever dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Looks like it's not just Apple fanboys that are going wild for the iPad: in Australia, virtually every state education department is trialling the tablet in schools — and some schools are even trialling it without the official support of their department. One university in Adelaide has even abolished textbooks for first year science students and is allocating free iPads to first year students instead. It will be interesting to see what happens when the inevitable wave of Android tablets hits over the next six months."

Please clarify something for me: are you a clever troll, or a sincere moron?
