Her excuse is that we have to test new stuff to see how you can use them for online classes. For the the Kindle she wanted to make sure you could download stuff from Wimba and Blackboard, and for the iPad I think she just wants to make sure you can use it to take an online class. It could just be an excuse to buy the latest stuff, but I'm not complaining, haha.

I have a feeling that 'complaints about school' tag is going to be the most common one.
