Although that could well work, it increases the requirements for someone to get 
things going, and wouldn't be so useful when you're away from home.

Another option would be to make it in Rev and install it onto the users iPads. 
You would only be able to do that on 100 iPads, but might that still be of use? 
How large is your PA disabled student iPad owning market?

The main difficulty there would be only using Rev features that work on the 
iPad, and with them changing their development away from iPad, it may stay 
frozen in its current state. Ideally, as they develop for mobile in general, 
they should keep testing on iPad, in the hope that one day it will be legal in 
the App Store, and in the meantime people like us can use it for personal use.

If you do want to pursue the idea of using it as a remote touch screen, look at 
this App:

It works well enough, and can even operate across the world if you have a gmail 
account.
