How many computers can sync to one ipad?

Question

I teach at a university.  Our department is discussing ordering several iPads (maybe iPod Touches, also) for faculty to share.  Faculty would be creating materials for the classroom and using the iPad in place of written/printed notes and/or for presentations.  The question I raised is how many computers can sync to one iPad?  My assumption is that individual faculty would create such materials on their office or personal computers, then load those materials onto an iPad. 

Answer 1

All iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, Touch) are designed to sync with a single iTunes library, i.e. a single computer.
You can sync multiple iOS devices to the same iTunes library (same account) or multiple iOS devices to the same computer with different iTunes accounts and libraries.
In your case, if each individual creates their own material, they can sync it from their iTunes account (library) on their computer.
Also, there are many apps out there that allow you to move files from the cloud to the device, i.e. Box.net, Airstash, Dropbox, etc.  Perhaps you could set that up and have individuals create material, sync it to the cloud and then allow others to access it via the iPad.
I suggest you contact other faculty at other universities that may have done this, perhaps via some faculty forums.
