iPads tend to cost about twice/thrice the price of a Chromebook if you want a keyboard with your computer.

Lenovo's great Duet comes with the keyboard for like 290EUR.

And ergonomically a laptop is better for writing and whatever purposes there may be.

In the US, the Duet is frequently on sale for around $200 to $250. Has a great screen, all metal construction, and a passable keyboard. I'm rather fond of mine. End up using it more than the iPad.
