Q. Would it be safe to put an iPad in a bag with a few textbooks or would it get damaged banging against the books? It is in a case.
A. It would depend on the case. I have an otter box defender series case for my Ipad. My two daughters have thrown, dropped, and hit each other with it and it has not broke yet! I would say it would be okay if you have a good quality case. Here is a video of a guy throwing his Ipad out of a window on to concrete with the otter-box case. Hope that helps!

What are the best accessories to go with my 64g wifi Ipad?
Q. I've just ordered my Ipad and am wondering what bits and bobs I might need to take full advantage of it.
A. Must haves:
Apple IPad case: it doesn't only protect the device but also it gives a perfect angle for typing and watching video. With apple case on, I can type faster on iPad than i do on any laptop.
Other case may look more attractive but none of them does what Apple case can do.
Camera Kit: Just for $29 you get two dongles that allow you to connect your digital camera and memory card directly to iPad to transfer photos and videos. You can even attach memory card hub and put different kind of memory cards.
iPad Bag: there are many light and super slim bags available in the market. Laptop bags are heavy and if bags are heavy then there is no point of carrying a light weight iPad. Carry laptop instead so I think light weight bag is a must have.
I grabbed one from store Ross just for $15 it's good enough to accommodate power cable,iPad,digital camera, some other dongles and cables ,headphones.
You can also get blutooth keyboard from either Apple store or online if you want cheaper ones. But I won't suggest you to get apple dock I think Apple was sleeping when they made dock for iPad. The dock is totally useless and you can't use in landscape mode.
But if you search online , there are docks available that lets you use the iPad on landscape mode and it also allow you to use external keyboard in landscape mode.
You can buy Motorola Blutooth stereo headset.
Now some apps:
Netflix
Abc Player
We Rule -game
N.O.V.A - game
GoodReader- download video directly to device and upload document to google doc, dropbox,Box, save email attachments, browse the web while downloading video.
Desktop:divide the screen ,on one side browse the Internet and on other side use calculator ,unit converter, translator,email or any other app with radio playing at background.
Radio:it's a free and only radio app that works at background.
IM lite: chat on google ,AOL,Twitter,FB or others and browse the Internet at the same time.
Pages,Numbers,Keynote: $9.99 each .get them if you are into creating documents.
I use them for my office work everyday.
Websites:
Contrary to common belief , iPad can stream full length movies and TV shows and it's better than any computer coz when you watch movies for free on computer , you get many pop ups and ad banners. You get none on iPad.

What items do you need to remove from your carry on bag and place in the bin at an airport?
Q. I know you need to take off your shoes, and put the quart size plastic bag from your carry on and your cell phone in there, but what other things should you put in that bin when you go through security at an airport? Should any item with metal on it go in there? How does it work? I know that like, for example, the clasp on my wallet has some metal on it. What about things like cell phone chargers?
A. Depends on what country you are departing from.
In the US, http://www.tsa.gov is the website for the transportation security administration.
If you are flying from another country go on the appropriate website for that country.
But generally, laptop in addition to the other items you mentioned.
If you have keys or coins in your pocket, remove those.
Your cell phone can go through packed in your carry on; you only need to remove it if you are carrying it on your person.
Ipad can go through in your bag.
If you are wearing a hat or sweatshirt, bulky sweater, coat or jacket, that needs to come off.
