My dad thinks (and I agree), the iPad is going to be an essential tool for our construction superintendents to have. Most of what they do is communicate with email, write POs, enter timecards, stuff like that. A laptop is really overkill for this purpose.
I think my dad plans on getting an iPad as soon as they come out for this purpose, at least to try it out, then if it works well, we'll probably buy more.
A lot of our database is created in Filemaker, so we'll have to figure out the best way to interact with that from the iPad.
