Well, okay so we are agreed then that the iPad does replace the Kindle with ease and comfort?
Are we as agreed that the iPad replace the MP3 player just as well? Seems so, from what all y'all have said.
Just not the cell phone or the pc? Does it fail as a pc because of the touch screen? I'm not entirely sure I followed what Takenover83 said. Do you mean you'd still need an ISP before an iPad could surf the 'net?
Don't they make gizmos these days to let us collect the 'net via WiFi? How come any of us is still paying for an ISP, if that's true?
Please "talk slower" folks...LOL. I am a techy idijit and I am thrilled at the possibilities, but a but uncertain it'll all work just as I envision it.
Thankies for the help. I plan to decide what sort of gadget to buy within the next couple of months.

So that leaves just the functions of an MP3 player and a Kindle. If I still buy an iPad, how do I download books and music from the 'net onto it? Is there some sort of wire I can use to connect it to my desktop? Surely I don't have to pay for 'net access separately for the iPad after paying for it for the cell phone and the PC?
