So still almost twice as much (+$189) as a Chromebook? And with more accessories to manage/lose. There's a reason why the Chromebook is doing so well in this space, low price, single clamshell units, not tied to a single user, easy to manage, sane defaults for education, and does 90% of what a classroom needs. Are there compelling iPad apps? Sure. Can the iPad w/pen offer things a Chromebook cannot? Absolutely. But the price remains too high, and Apple has yet to prove they can offer a seamless iPad cart experience with limited setup. The current iPad setup experience is a headache.
