Apple Thoughts: iPad In Use As a Military Training Tool

"The US Army isn't the only security force adopting Apple's iOS devices for training and military operations; the UK is also now actively using iPad to train its soldiers."

Interesting to read that both US and UK armed forces are now producing training materials for use on an iPad. They say that the iPad makes learning quicker and more interesting (the term fun was used), in essence, more game-like. I do wonder how well the iPad would do in a crisis situation where the training material is needed, as opposed to using a paper manual or printed instructions. Sorry, captain, I couldn't respond because the battery in my iPad died? Oh oh. Now where did that paper copy go?
