I just bot an iPad2 and I'm here to tell you they are going to put a lot of people out of work. That's what productivity does.. apparently it frees you up to invent more new stuff.. but only so many are capable of that.. Interestingly Canadian productivity is not ranked as highly as compared to the US.. and our unemployment situation is also quite a bit better.. a coincidence ? I dunno.. :o) There's a Springsteen song in there someplace :O) I got the smart phone (Android Nexus S) that I thought I would never use much.. I love it :O) In fact I'm taking my son to hockey practice tonight for 8... so I'll be checking the effects of Mr. O's words on my Google Phone :O) With the proliferation of WiFi.. I'm not making much of a dent in the 3G data plan.. 10 bucks last month to stay for ever on demand in touch... if I wish :O)
