I,m a major redneck,really! Most folks look at me and figure I can't spell computer, let alone use one.
That said, I carry mine everywhere, along with my WiFi unit. I've had several employees and customers use my wifi for in the field searches for looking up info on equipment specs etc.
They love it, one enviro engineer even left on his lunch break to buy his own iPad.
I also use the presentation software to show the start to finish progress of some projects.
The ability to go online so quickly, to look for specs, regulations or needed supplies is just amazing. After all these years waiting on a laptop to boot/come out of hibernation, or trying to read a smart phone screen, I'm thinking one of my best tech purchases ever!
Ymmv!
