Don't listen to people who dont know a thing about how operating system works and what is computer programing.
iPad is perfect for students.
Student needs

5.Edit/Create Spreadsheet

7.Photo Editing/Music composing
And of course some fun like gaming,chatting,photo sharing, online movies,music,free online TV shows etc.
iPad has top notch organizer which runs at the background so even iPad is in sleep mode , it will alert you give info about remaining tasks.
FaceBook, Twitter, other social network runs smoothly and all of them have push notification which means , whenever you get any message even if you not using the iPad, you will get the message.
iWork on iPad is much better than MS-Office on any laptop as long as your work is not super high profile for which you need software solution like SAP Business Object Xcelsius and Crystal Reports.
Even if you have never put complicated formulas using Excel, you can do it easily on iPad because its so simple and amazingly user friendly. Creating powerpoint presentation is piece of cake on it.
There are app for photo editing that professionals will using.
Seton Hill University has announced, every students will be getting iPad from next session.

Many universities and schools will be uploading text books into iBooks store where student can read and then using iWork , do the homework or assignment then upload to dropbox or iwork.com to submit the project.
iPad will revolutionize the way student study. Think about it you will always be powered by Hundred of books with internet power and built in dictionary and a top of line MS office editor.

Answer
The Price: $150 after the standard rebate and two-year contract
The Verdict: The Behold fills the hole in T-Mobile's lineup for a not-quite-smart feature phone: It does a lot of the stuff a smartphone will do, like web browsing and email, just you know, not quite as capably as a real smartphone, or even as well as its cousin, the Instinct (even before it got better with its most recent round of updates). The web browser is bleh for anything but mobile sites since T-Mobile does you the favor of translating pages, which tends to butcher more complicated ones, and the email client won't do standard IMAP or POP. The IM client is slow, though not terrible, but either way, you can't really install your own apps to rectify the situation.
So what's good? The touchscreen is one more of the responsive ones that Samsung has put out, a hair better than the Instinct, and the keyboard layout is pretty good too, though I wish the space bar was bigger. The TouchWiz UI is attractive and easy to use, even if it's only skin deepâonce you go past the widget-y "desktop," you're dumped into a more generic, though not exactly ugly, cellphone UI.
The 5MP camera, though not miraculous, is better than most of the ones in these kinds of phones by a long shot, with satisfactory noise levels and a decent suite of basic photo editing that'll let you adjust fundamentals like contrast and color, crop or add crazy effects. I wish the flash were a little stronger and the autofocus were a little faster, though.
Overall, it's what you'd expect out of a feature phoneâit'll do a lot of things, just none of them amazingly. If you're a T-Mobile customer, for the money, I'd go with a G1âit lacks polish in some places, and the hardware isn't nearly as tight as the Behold's, but you'll get more out of it.

The Samsung Behold reminds us quite a bit of the Samsung Instinct. It's not quite smart enough to be an iPhone clone, but it's still a good phone in its own right. In fact, in terms of call quality and calling features, it's a great phone. But Samsung still hasn't nailed the touchscreen interface. In some areas, like the QWERTY keyboard, they've done a great job, and it works well. In others, like the home page widgets and the problems we had with scrolling and moving through lists, the problems make using the phone a real chore. The phone has a very nice music player, but lacks a standard headphone jack, which seriously hobbles its potential. It uses fast networking on T-Mobile's new 3G network, but the Web browser lacks the deeper options needed to unleash its full potential. It's a flawed device, but not fatally flawed, and hopefully Samsung will work out most of these TouchWiz UI kinks as more of these phones come to market. Release: November 2008. Price: $200.
Pros: Responsive screen. Great call quality and calling features. Fine music player.
Cons: Scrolling issues hurt using the interface. Widgets might not work at this size. Web browsing and video player both mediocre
Design - Good
The Samsung Behold is the first phone on the U.S. market to follow up on Samsung's promise for more TouchWiz phones. We saw a version of this UI on the Samsung Omnia that we previewed back in July, though that phone ran Windows Mobile, while this is a more of a standard multimedia not-as-smartphone. It's an all-touch phone, with only Send, End and Back buttons on the face. A lock button on the side locks the screen and keeps the phone from making calls in your pocket. We like the hardware lock button, it's a bit more convenient than a finger swipe (though not as chic).
The most important thing we ask for on an all-touch phone is a responsive interface, and for the most part the Samsung Behold delivers. We had some trouble with the way TouchWiz is designed, but no trouble with the screen registering our taps and s
