How is this news? This just in: a cat was able to use the iPad as a toy! And look, a dog is scared of the iPad! oh wait, you did that already . Enough with these useless iPad "news" please.

Intra-murphasic Dichrosotiospaliosis?

There's an app for that.

 

[amabhy]

Erm, since the app he's using is prolly unofficial, that means the iPad is likely jailbroken...

Apple lawsuit in 3... 2... 1...

This didn't come to mind before Apple made a tablet?

 

[ZEPd3Z]

there's an e-book of surgery for dummies?

 

[Kelavarus]

Well that's annoying. I have to pay a lot of money to get a damn X-Ray, but they can X-Ray a friggin' iPad for fun?

wow, ANOTHER "someone uses an Ipad to do something" thread.

If you guys could get paid per piece by the "man spotted using Iphone to make a call" type reports, you wouldn't need advertising on the site. and afford a 3 week vacation in hawaii.

Story originated on Wired, which has become one of the most ridiculously apple biased tech-websites over the last few years.

It is "news" about the use of technology in the real-world. But this is useless and it's like advertising for Apple.

Toms gets flamed hard for any apple-loving blogs. They have to listen to audience, otherwise they will end up preaching to Jobs' choir.

Hope it doesn't get, an, ummm, virus.

Folks.... Its ok, The doc is using it as a form of wireless LCD monitor.. its just too bad other companies are so late on the bandwagon of making a wireless LCD monitor with control inputs.

Slap a shiny apple logo and bam!, instant creativity is brought to all.

 

[flachet]

OK fine. I admit it. I used and iPad to wipe my butt. There the secret is out now. There is an app for that!

I just couldn't hide it any longer.

This just in: Doctors use technology to make their jobs easier.

Wow, do you seriously think Tom's is pro-Apple? There is one Apple article on the front page of Tom's Hardware. One. As in less than two but greater than zero. One.

This article isn't any more tech related than the stupid article about George Bush joining facebook. I didn't care that George Bush joined facebook so I didn't read that article. I was interested to see why an iPad was used in an operating room so I clicked the link. I guess the difference between me and the set of cellar dwelling Apple trolls is I have the ability to control myself.

"I DON'T CARE ABOUT GEORGE BUSH JOINING FACEBOOK. TOM'S IS GEORGE BUSH BIASED." Ridiculous. I wish Tom's would just hand out 7 day bans to you idiots without warning.

May be it's just "iPed" from china, which uses Android OS?
