I'll take each one in turn if I may?

she sees the benefit of the flexability of an iPad, and in her profession (project mgr/change mamangement) its kinda expected to use the latest "tools of the trade"....

Change management. Oh dear, she should get a proper job.

shes a bit concerned about having to use different software (ie, non MS)...

OK.

therefore with an iPad, can she still use MS Office (word, excel, powerpoint etc)?

I don't know.

without a usb to do a smell up, how easy is it to interface/plug-in pheripherals like external hard drive etc?

I don't know.

she prefers a keyboard and has seen wireless keyboards for iPads....any good?

I have no idea.

you can buy wireless projectors for iPhones and iPads, any good?

I don't know, so I can't help on that one.

to buy an iPad, keyboard, projector, etc etc all in one package, wheres best place to go for price? does anyone do interest free monthly instalments?

I don't know, but I expect you can pay monthly and interest free.

cheers for your help..... (iPad illiterate here!)

That's quite alright.
