im thinking about getting one too, and from what iv seen is that writing papers and doing all that school work isn't really a problem...in my classes of like 200-400 i always see a few people with ipads and they have the dock with keyboard and take notes, write papers and all..havent seen anyone do spreadsheets but im sure u can, i think that when u do documents u have a choice to save it a certain way? my buddy sends files from his mac to my pc and they work just fine, guess it depends on exactly what u want to do with it, id probably just use it to pass time in class and maybe a few notes here and there...
