Apple New Ipad Hits Stores Creating New Dimension In Business


The history of tablet PCs is littered with products that didn’t deliver, lackluster sales and poor software and hardware integration. It’s not surprising that consumers never went gaga for the tablet PC. Business has been a different story.

Simply put, you can find tablets in industries such as healthcare. And there are business applications for tablet PCs. Vertical industries may be the only place where you’ll find more than a dozen tablet PCs in the wild.

Now Apple’s iPad enters the picture. The iPad’s snazzy design and selection of apps could make it a hit with the enterprise. Will the so-called “consumerization of IT” carry the iPad to a business near you? Like the iPhone, it’s quite possible that workers will bring the iPad to work. The business case is a bit unclear at the moment, but TechRepublic has been putting a lot of thought to the iPad and business implications.
