With the recent Apple iPad announcement, tablets have once again been the topic of conversation in tech circles. In this week’s episode, we talk about tablets in the Enterprise and how they might be utilized effectively. We also share our specific opinions about the iPad.

We’ve decided to shorten the show format. There are lots of great tech news podcasts out there. So we’ve dropped the Net-Net-News segment. We’re keeping the main topic, rants and call-to-action. In fact, this week’s call-to-action is sure to make you smile.
