The ipad is a cross between a itouch and a laptop. The ipad has more memory and a wider screen. This makes it more fit to read e-books, and watch movies. However, the ipad cannot use some of the apps a itouch would be able to use. Also, the enormous screen makes it difficult to operate with your thumbs

Beyond the obvious difference in size, there are a number of differences between the iPad and the iPod touch. Perhaps most significantly the iPad supports applications that take advantage of the larger display — like word processing and presentation software — and the iPod touch has a higher resolution display and a camera but there are a number of other capability and feature differences as well as a notable difference in performance.
For more details, an objective comparison of the iPad, iPod touch (as well as the iPhone 4) can be useful to you:

The biggest difference is iWork and Web Browsing. iPod Touch has incredible web browsing experience for a mobile device but iPad gives all new experience because all the websites are specially designed and recoded exclusively for iPad.
Discovery,PBS,Abc,Disney,Netflix,HULU Plus,National Geographic are phenomenal on iPad.
If you are into studies or job then iPad will make life much easier with the best PDF reader the works has ever witnessed on any device and super smooth iWork.
I download all the notes and books on iPad and read from it the benefit of reading from iPad is that you can add side note, you can highlight , you can even wright on the PDF with finger.There are tons of other features like creating a circle,underlining etc.
I create hundreds of Word,Excel,Powerpoint files on iPad. With just one tap you can convert any file to PDF.
Gaming has better graphics and its lot more fun to play on iPad.
iPad is faster and has more professional software. Not to mention the display makes doing everything so fun. They both have the A4 chip and 256MB of RAM. The iPad lets you connect to 3G, so you can browse the internet everywhere
