iPad for business use

[shuggyboy]

Hi, have got myself an iPad to use with my business as a financial adviser in the UK. Most of the tools and websites I need to access are only available using Internet explorer and flash player but note that iPad does not support them. Basically I cannot use this iPad with my clients either to do research or presentations. Am I missing something or just being a bit thick...

iPad can convert a standard paper-centered work-flows to increase the way employees report and monitor vital business details.Transform your iPad into a display screen with White board.

Hi and welcome to the Forum!

No you're not being thick, it's just a case of thinking a little differently. If you need to be able to access your computer there are remote desktop apps which can help here. I use Splashtop which allows me to access anything I have on my computer from my iPad.
I have included a link below which will explain about flash and the alternatives that are available
