Life as a Healthcare CIO: Cool Technology of the Week: iPod Touch, Underdog companion to iPhone

Life as a Healthcare CIO: Cool Technology of the Week

I totally agree that the iPod Touch is the underdog device. I actually got the hint of this from several people at once, including ePatient Dave, that they could enjoy the goodness of the iPhone ecosystem without switching carriers. In addition, an organization could deploy these and “own” all the connections without dealing with a wireless carrier.

I was a little worried a few weeks ago when John talked about his Berry-philicity, but now I’m at ease knowing that the magic i-device of the future has a spot in his heart and in his innovation-leading mind.
