Would the iPad be beneficial for homeschool use?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Even if the iPad is in heavy use it does not ran out of battery fast. She have used it all day without charging once. She started their homeschool day by watching PBS video. She also use the National Geographic World Atlas to view different countries in the video. After that they tackle Match using Adobe Ideas app as whiteboard.
They also had some puzzles in the free Tangram XL app and played rounds of Traffic Jam.
The iPad is really great and cool device in educating children.

There are also some that are made for chemistry, astrology, spelling, vocabulary and even virtual musical insturments.
There are also iPad apps that are designed to help teachers with their lesson plans. I would expect that these could be helpful for parents as well. After all, you are being a teacher for your child. Here is a link that have list of applications for educators:

I looked into the iPad to see if they offered anything interesting for homeschoolers and from what I read, it is not worth investing in the iPad for that purpose.
They do have virtual classes, but I have read they are audio only.
I think the home computer and laptop are good enough for homeschooling. There are so many online resources that a home computer should be good enough. You can find CDroms to use at home, or specialty sites. I use Math Cafe, or I should say, I did. My daughter is past that now, but there you can print worksheets, which I tend to do often.
