I-pad for composers

[Chinagraf]

Any writers here using an i-pad as a writing tool, like for jotting down idea etc..?
I know a laptop does a lot but I was thinking of getting one just to have around for workshopping ideas, throwing melodies down etc. Some of the apps look cool, and I could smuggle it up my jumper when we go up country to visit the in-laws.
Thoughts?

Yeah I think I saw nanostudio for i-pad. That's what got me thinking. I want something bigger than the iphone though. As in physically bigger. I have fat fingers.
