    All iPads Would an iPad and Apple Pencil make a good serious note taking device for University?

    I'm planning on entering University next year, and I've had this question for a while. Would it be ideal to replace all my notebooks for an iPad and an Apple Pencil to take notes on during lectures? It would be a portable device, and I can keep all my notes centralised as well.

    iPad Why isn’t my iPad turning on?

    My iPad was dropped down a flight of stairs and fell on the carpet. My touchscreen is relatively that damaged, probably a few thin cracks through. My iPad bezel, however, is completely destroyed and the screen is coming off the body. Any way I can turn it on?
