Executive Summary

In just 12 months, iPad has redefined expectations of what a computer should be: instant-on, highly portable, all-day batteries, always-connected, and app-driven. And Apple has sold 15 million iPads in 2010, clear proof of their value. How many of those 15 million iPads are coming to work every day? Probably half of them. We know you're feeling the pressure.
