Great! My daughter also just turned 3. Do you think the iPad is a worthwhile investment as an entertainment and learning tool, or is it just a fancy high-tech toy?
uish, i wouldnt buy the ipad just to entertain my kid, dat kira spoiling oredi -.-'
i bought it as a web/media browser which i can carry around and store my folio (i designer mah, but not like that gay baldy fag on TV

just kidding). i'm hardly a gadget-phile, which is why i dont mind when kids mess around with my stuff.
that said, an ipad is a bit heavy for kids to hold in their hand, an ipod is much more disposeable and ideal as a kids toy. i'd list the pro n con like so:
- ipod
pro: light, so easier to hold/carry around. for kids the size of the screen good enough for most interactive apps.
ipad: the big screen is better for drawing/reading tools. but too heavy for kids to hold up. my kid will tend to look down on the screen laying it on flat surface. not very good for posture lah. but the youtube is better and faster. and while video is still okay on ipod 2nd gen with speakers, ipad sound waaaaay better.
