The iPad is finding many new places in modern business.

Displacing laptops
While it will be some time before iPads do away with laptops, they have already proved their value in meeting rooms, on the go, and as personal devices.

Replacing clipboards and other paper
Construction managers using an application by Vela Systems can now carry an iPad instead of a tube full of construction drawings. It also applies to clinical testing in the pharmaceutical industry, facilities inspections by quality assurance pros, and insurance brokers writing business out in the field.

Accessing information
Doctors using iPads can write orders in surgery or access patient records in the examination room.

Customization
Retail floor personnel are able to customize an order for a new Mercedes or a summer wardrobe.
