Because internet access is restricted to computers wired into the GRPS network at school I haven't used the iPad in my classroom yet. In the near future I plan on investigating more apps for biology thinking that I could wire the iPad into our classroom projector and get students to use it as a class or as a station in small groups.
During GVSU classes I have used the iPad in almost every course for getting quick access to email, online articles & books, and blackboard. The portability has been very convenient as I would be hesitant to bring my laptop to class every day but the iPad doesn't weigh much or take up much room, making it easy to bring along.
I'll update sometime soon after attempting to integrate the tool into my classroom more.
