Love love love the iPad and the idea of taking a computer the size of a notebook, anywhere and everywhere with me.
Android 3.0 Tablet… I am almost certain I will love even more. Now I am sure the preference of the two comes down to each individuals needs but I think the Android’s apps are far superior to that of the iPhone. They seem so much more interactive and alive compared to the iPhones ability to simply mimic a web browser. Now as I can’t say for sure that the Android 3.0 Tablet will reign supreme over the iPad because I don’t really know what they will be targeting to set them apart.

HTML5 is the future of the web – both for the future of how we present video and as a replacement for proprietary technologies like Adobe Flash.
However, Erik Huggers at the BBC has concerns that HTML5 may not deliver on that promise.
“The fact is that there’s still a lot of work to be done on HTML5 before we can integrate it fully into our products. As things stand I have concerns about HTML5′s ability to deliver on the vision of a single open browser standard which goes beyond the whole debate around video playback.”

We have been preaching to our clients for years to stop using flash on their websites. A website makes less money to the degree of flash and animation it uses.
Users don’t need to see ‘spinning globes’ and ‘dancing flowers’. They need to be told what problem you solve and given the to solve it by buying your services.

- If your sales people rely on paper or drawing diagrams for presentations, an iPad gives them a way to perform the same task, and then email the notes to the prospect after the meeting.
- Swipe credit cards on your iPad using Square. Just a 3%-ish fee for the transaction which you would pay with any point of sale device, but no contract or monthly fee. Your sales people could complete the transaction anywhere.
