Ahoy, business traveller, iPad calling!
21.06.11
Don’t listen to what the naysayers tell you. The Apple iPad is “open for business”. Especially business on the move. In fact, the Apple iPad is one intense bundle of mobile computing and can often serve as a better travel mate for those shorter business trips than its chunkier sibling, the laptop. You only need to know how to make it work for you.
What makes it a better travel mate?
Tipping the scales at 600-odd grams, it is lightweight, super slim and easy to carry. And unarguably powerful, with—most importantly—a veritable plethora of software to harness that power. Browsing, reading, presenting, creating, note taking, editing, annotating, information gathering, digital personal assistance, videoconferencing, etc., are all possible on the little slate, using the 65,000-plus bank of tablet-optimized apps.

You can’t ignore the fact that there are very few laptops out there even today that can match up to the iPad’s 10-hour battery life. Doesn’t that make it an efficient
tool for the mobile professional—ideal for one- to two-day trips?
