Understood, but the topic here is iWork-vs-gDocs and the collaborative applications (word processing, presentations, spreadsheets) in an education setting.

iPads are great for certain purposes like the Osmo. They're a relative failure when it comes to typing up a book report or creating a group slide presentation.

Fair point. What I've heard comes secondhand from kindergarten / early elementary school teachers where students can't do those kinds of things yet.
