- "As we said, it's shockingly thin."----perfect for slipping in your lab coat and assisting you with rounds or office patients. It's there when you need it and will be even less obtrusive. All of our younger faculty at UVA now have these over the old Palm devices.
- "The screen is truly outrageous -- you basically cannot see pixels on it. We're not being hyperbolic when we say it's easily the best looking mobile phone screen we've ever laid eyes on."----not only is this great for my aging eyes, but think of the potential for clinical documentation (e.g. pictures of rashes or cellulitis monitoring) AND for educating your patients by showing them risk calculations or going over a patient handout that you can print out.
- "The build quality is really solid. The home button feels much snappier, and on the whole it just feels like a tightly-packed device, but it's not heavy."-----works faster.....perfect for the point of care....who has extra time for waiting?
- "The side buttons are really nice and clicky."----not sure how this applies clinically, but I'm open to comments. That being said it's additional functionality that should make use in your clinic or hospital that much easier.
- "iOS 4 is very familiar -- there's not a lot added to fit and finish."-----this is great, no need to re-learn the interface. I hate it when a website changes it's look and I can't find the one thing I need....especially when I'm in clinic.
- "The general speed of the whole OS is way snappier. The camera app in particular is noticeably faster -- shots get snapped in an instant."----once again, this should enhance it's usefulness in the clinic.
