    Do it on a laptop/computer like a normal person.

    Sell the iPad, get a netbook. Then you could actually do some work.

    Get Pages for £6.99 + a keyboard for anywhere from £39.99 to £89.99, but seriously prepare to be stupefied at how useless an iPad is for any task requiring any amount of typing/editing beyond that in a normal e-mail.

    I agree. And I have an iPad. I mainly use it for textbooks, and viewing notes taken by my Livescribe pen, both of which it excels at. Typing up an essay on it? Screw that.

    This why I also have a laptop.
