I'm a sucker for small portable gadgets that allow me to get online, watch videos, and interact with others. Since I travel alot, I think that I will be investing in an iPad soon. Check out Steve Jobs unveiling the iPad
It is still early in my web 2.0 graduate course, so it is hard to say how I am doing. Unfortunately, I don't have the free time to get online and dedicate as much time as I would like into this course. I am able to contribute to class discussions, and submit the required work. However, I feel like I haven't done enough. Sometimes when I login to my email (discussions on moodle are forwarded to my email) I discover that there are around 100 emails. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to when other students get on moodle. Once I figure that out, maybe I will be able to stay on track with the discussion threads. As it is now, I get bits and pieces of several discussions so it is fairly disjointed and I have to go back and re-read others comments.
Tomorrow, that is the day for me to sit behind a computer for several hours and play catch up.
I too have a mid-week lull in my school work when I am slammed with work and cannot spend much time parsing through emails. I have an iPhone, but the screen size and key pad are a real problem. I can see the iPad being useful for increasing access while mobile, but it still won't produce and extra hour or two during the day!
