The world was closely watching and everyone in the media was fanatical about the launch of Apple’s new touchscreen tablet technology – the iPad. The outstanding feature that impressed everyone was the price (just $499). A lot has been written about the iPad but what we are concerned about is its business applications (especially for startups).

Startup entrepreneurs need to be on the go – creating documents, spreadsheets and presentations and also taking their product pitches with them to every meeting, presentation or event they go. iPad will make all of this easier and convenient.  For example: When they meet people at events, they can take out their iPad and flip through the presentation then and there. And also for VC presentations or bland elevator pitches – an iPad is certainly a smart purchase for an entrepreneur.

The price plus the benefits – A definite win-win situation for all entrepreneurs
