Maybe we should have held off on iPads and waited for the Droid tablet (that is sure to come eventually). The new Droid App Builder (see this New York Times article: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/12/technology/12google.html?hpw) could make apps for Droid cell phones (and eventually other devices) really easy to create. The project was spearheaded by one of the first computer science professors I had in college, Hal Abelson. He is better known as one of the creators of the Logo language. I wonder how easy it will be for teachers to build educational Droid apps.
