1+Multitasking+vs+Student+Focus

I-pad: the i-pad has apps that could get the student off focus. Would kids get distracted from the apps on the i-pad. If kids distracted from the apps on the i-pad, then would it be recommended for Nagel Students?

Tablet PC: the tablet PC is nice because it's a touch screen and you can draw on it. if the students doodle on the tablet then will student focus on the lesson go up or down?

The netbook has a disadvantage because it is really small, the screen and the keys are really small.

If students arent montitered, will they go on other sites? If one student gets an ipad, will it distract others? Would you be able to open more then one tab on the ipad? Will you be able to do most of the same things on the ipad as the other devices?
