To the OP re apps - one thing my ds uses and *needs* that your ds probably doesn't need yet, but you might want to be aware of: the ability to scan worksheets and files. There are a number of scanner apps; ds uses JotNot (I think that's the name - I don't have his iPad at home today to double-check). It's not really a "scanner" - it takes a picture and converts the picture to a file. It's easy to use, but you need to have good even lighting on your document and that can be tricky.
When ds scans in a worksheet, he uses an app to allow him to edit/type on pdf files. I think the app he has is called "Type on PDF". He doesn't like the app as much as he liked using Adobe Pro on the laptop, but he's able to use it and it's another app which allows you to easily send/share docs.
