∙ 13y agoIs an iPad like a laptop?
Answer: Yes, and then no... iPad's are touch screen tablets and laptops are flip open keyboard operated devices. They can do almost the same things though, only difference is iPad cannot use as much stuff as a normal laptop can. An iPad cannot play CD's or DVDs.

iPad Holders?
iPad holders allow you to support your iPad in a structured position, so you do not have to hold it all the time. Good applications for the holders include propping up your iPad in a display position to better demonstrate the screen, viewing positions for movies, and for displaying your iPad in a presentation. Some iPad holders can also put your iPad into a laptop-like position, so you can type and look at your iPad the same way as a laptop.
