As a tech nerd and devoted fan of anything Apple, I am extremely sad to see headlines that warn of the brand’s newest – and record breaking – device. Apparently there have been widespread reports and complaints about iPhone 4’s performance and hardware.
But if you’re like me, and you held out for the new hand-held – congrats! It looks like we will benefit from the lessons of others.
Over the weekend I was at a social function and ran into a friend of mine that works as an Apple Genius. This guy knows his stuff and is a devoted fan of all things Mac.
We got to talking about the iPad and its pros and cons. I explained to him that I have both an iPhone and a Kindle and therefore fail to find a need for the new toy. He, surprisingly, agreed but went on to speak to the iPad’s other potential uses.
My favorite suggestion of his was to have hospitals use it for medical record tracking. I can absolutely see doctors ditching the clipboard for an iPad. Not only would it save time and increase efficiency, but it’s also eco-friendly! How’s that for functionality?
