I am getting closer.<br /><br />Was wondering about desktop apps that I am familiar with such as PowerPoint, Excel and Word.

We recently switched to using iPads for conference trade show exhibiting and it has been a game changer for us. We have not yet gotten the iPads 2 yet, but I will this week thanks to Apple agreeing to upgrade all our iPads for free. They're such a great company all around and we strive to provide the same premium customer services to our customers that they do theirs. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Nice post! <br /><br />- Eric Fortenberry, OrgSync.comEric Fortenberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12652486106627409498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543498158490486216.post-45030068219985810172011-03-16T10:35:29.771-04:002011-03-16T10:35:29.771-04:00Mike, I think I already thanked you but I think yo...Mike, I think I already thanked you but I think you introduced I pad to our family. I love my Ipad. One unexpected app for parents with small childern who are learning to read is Rock n Learn. A great app that helps teach reading skills for only 1.99. Be sure to ask Bill what book Grace loves to read to him-- it is funny!<br />AmyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543498158490486216.post-32989236825046545012011-02-24T16:09:20.751-05:002011-02-24T16:09:20.751-05:00Thanks Amy!

Having a really new product accepted in a shorter time frame can be enhanced by solving a problem that addresses the lower levels of the hierachy - fear causes buying decisions if you can resolve it. But striving for an entire workforce to move towards self actualization is a whole different level. That will take pondering. <br />David GibsonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04110805271040789539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543498158490486216.post-49217000637609783912009-03-26T15:30:00.000-04:002009-03-26T15:30:00.000-04:00Kindle2 is pretty amazing.

The user experience is excellent, and so far, I'm impressed with the battery life. It's not something I would have gotten for myself. And I don't think I'll take it to read by the pool or on the beach. But it's a great new toy, and I'm really enjoying it!Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14481516967977772993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543498158490486216.post-11772200376487371262009-02-17T14:51:00.000-05:002009-02-17T14:51:00.000-05:00I, too, have read a book.I, too, have read a book.Friar Tuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14418751247231901510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543498158490486216.post-45791355098469820442008-12-12T12:23:00.000-05:002008-12-12T12:23:00.000-05:00You do have passionate people working at Lastar!
