Apple has posted a new “iPad in Business” page to its website, featuring four profiles of businesses that have integrated the iPad into their workflows. Most notable among the businesses is Hyatt Hotels & Resorts, which is using iPads to facilitate check-ins at its boutique Andaz hotels, developing iPad-accessible apps for hotel services, and has a large number of executives using iPads when traveling in lieu of laptops. “I don’t carry my diary anymore,” said Harmit Singh, Hyatt Hotels Corporation’s Chief Financial Officer. “I don’t carry a calculator. I used to subscribe to all the journals: the Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times. That’s all disappeared. It’s all on iPad.” Less prominent on the page are links to profiles of rehabilitation service RehabCare, dentist Dr. Jonathan Ferencz, and the humanitarian organization charity: water.
