If you mean in iBooks, they are more interactive than regular print books. And they have  interactive diagrams and stuff.

An iPad performs essentially the same functions as an iPhone, except unlike the phone, it doesn't have a built-in app for calls. As far as I know, the only benefit of an iPad is that it has a bigger screen, which would not be very useful to us.

Is it easy to use and does it feel like the modern version of a note-taker? I’m trying to figure out whether to get one in addition to my laptop and IPhone.
