The IPad has integrated wi-fi, so it can use cloud services. The functionality and productivity of the device is really dependant on the connectivity bandwidth behind the wireless signal it's using...not the device itself.

IPAD Wi-Fi model

Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n)Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR technologyIf you test 20 different IPADs in different locations, you will get 20 different results. If you want an inexpensive way to test out cloud services on the IPAD, just try Dropbox (sync storage in the cloud). They offer a free trial at dropbox.com.

It seems extremely early in the life of the iPad to find case studies, but it appears to be a natural and intuitive way to go. The network considerations brought up by the previous answer are certainly a factor that needs to be tested with your application, but it's one that will only improve over time.

The iPad is the current version of the old "dumb terminal".
