I don't want to carry a super heavy laptop bag to study room/library/classroom anymore. Adapter + mouse + laptop + cooler pad make the table looks messy. Zz. I seldom print out the notes and assignments. That's why I want to buy an iPad. It does not take as long time as laptop to boot. And it is light. It's ok. Mine sucks too lol.

not 3 in 1 or 2 in 1

just go to itunes app store, and find pages, numbers and such, download 1 by 1

each app cost USD9.99, so just add up if u buy 2 or 3

From what I learn,

Keynote - good to use since it requires simple words and charts

Pages - typing some words on simple format is so easy

Numbers - editing is easy but if you plan to make a whole spreadsheet then you might want to consider
