You know, I thought about that, but my book is pretty heavy for this group (we 
have 50+ winter/xmas/holiday songs that we do) so at least for my purposes it 
will be about the same

I thought about the dropping issue too,  and there are some options out there 
for protecting the pad if dropped that I was considering mounting into a black 
binder (which is what we use anyway)

(Discussion aside, isn't the iPad a blast?)
