Countdown to iPad – An Apple a Day (Use Case 15)
Filed under Technology + gaps + mobile
Doctor’s offices are becoming more modern and more impersonal all the time. Instead of a face-to-face interview with your healthcare professional, they are sitting on the other side of the room, staring at a computer screen.
Meet iPad, the cure for the common cold shoulder. With iPad in hand, nurses and doctors look you in the eye as they enter your information. Office visits go back to be being personal and sensitive information is not left on unattended computers. The iPad travels from room to room with the practitioner, forgoing the need for them to log-in each time they enter the room.
iPad: just what the doctor ordered.
Doctor, doctor
In Countdown to iPad – Teammate (Use Case 12) we showed the Pogo Sketch stylus in action. It is our hope that Ten One Design will turn out other models… with at least one fit for a doctor’s pocket protector.
Countdown to iPad Series – There are countless articles and posts citing what the iPad isn’t or won’t be good at. We think they are wrong. Join us as we celebrate the countdown to iPad’s debut by posting a daily iPad use case.
We have many iPad use case scenarios queued up, but could always use more. Please comment and share your iPad ideas below.

That would be awesome. It’s like watching an episode of Star Trek.

I hope he doesn’t scratch the screen with his pen… Wait did Steve Jobs use a pen in his demo?

I have used Pogo Stick on the iPhone and iPod touch. They work pretty good. I see no reason they wouldn’t work on the iPad?
