I bought this primarily as a 13" music reader with a touch screen,1\2 in thick,and 2 1\2 lbs. It has it,s own stand for landscape position,but sits nicely on my music rack with a 7 hour charge. There are also mic stand holders that fit it.

The display is great, as is the touch responce. It may not be all my iPad is, in terms of apps,but then, I couldn't justify that kind of money either.

I am sitting here typing from it, and find it very pleasant.
