Q. I need something that I can put my schedule on including assignments. It needs to have something I can take notes on. Preferably something I can actually write on with a stylus (it doesn't have to have that though). It absolutely has to have something I can type on a transfer it to my laptop for essays and such. It needs to have wifi capability and the option to purchase a data plan.
E-readers are okay if they have what I need. Anything you know of would be great. Thank you!
A. The best option for you would be some eReader tablet like Kindle Fire HD.
You can do all that stuff like putting your schedule on assignments, taking notes, you can get a stylus and start writing on it using a stylus, it has WiFi capability and you can transfer stuff to laptop.
The 4G LTE version would fulfill your data plan needs.
Comments on Kindle Fire HD from an actual user, would definitely help you on this decision:

Will the ipad be able to be used like a wacom tablet in photoshop?
Q. basically what my question says..will it be able to be used like a wacom drawing tablet in photoshop or something? will it come with a stylus or something for the drawing?
A. It will not be able to even load Photoshop because it is NOT a Macbook/PC laptop replacement, it is just a mix of an iPod with a Sony eReader/Amazon Kindle.
There is (will be) a program in the Apple iPhone Apps store for drawing and another for Documents/Spreadsheets/Presentations (the so-called iWorks for iPad) but that is the extent of what is offered for near laptop capabilities.
Maybe in a few years, there will be more convergence but not at this moment!
Can any stylus work with a tablet or does it have to be the one that comes with it?
Q. I notice some tablets come with a stylus. For the ones that don't can you buy them separate? Is a stylus any different than a blunt point object?
A. There are basically 2 stylus technologies:
1. The old resistive touch technologies, which responds to pressure (basically the blunt point object), they are pretty rare now, available on some types of devices.
2. The modern capacitive touch technologies. The capacitive displays detect the change in the electrical capacitance of a finger or a capacitive stylus like these http://styli.org/
They all work on modern capacitive screen devices like iPad, Kindle touch, Samsung Galaxy Tab as well as other modern tablets and all modern smartphones like iPhones, Android and Windows smartphones.
