Free education

Get the ball rolling someone. Free education up to PhD level means so much more innovation like at MIT, UC Berkley and other top schools. paid books or even better, iPod touches, iPads and also iPhones used for school means better learning and grades: http://www.apple.com/education/ipodtouch-iphone/ the iPod touch is the least expensive when compared to iPhone (a broken contract or early termination fees are $100+ for each phone) and wifi is readily available at colleges, coffee shops, schools, libraries etc. Even just the WiFi iPad 2 is much more expensive than the bottom of the line iPod touch. $229 compared to $499 is the difference. I'd get at least the 32GB though. Otherwise, you are impeded in education so that model is $299. Still saving loads of cash and it goes into a pocket with a case for protecting it. Just get insurance on it and theft services to track it if stolen.
