The iPhone “is almost contagious,” says Todd Sutton, project controls manager at Zachry Construction Corp. “One person gets it on the jobsite, and then everyone has them.” A new MoGo Talk XD case (top left), which comes with a built-in headset keeper, makes them even sweeter. Infectious adoption also applies to the iPad (top right), Sutton says. Employees see how much work colleagues get done with them and buy their own. Developers at Motion Computing, whose tablet options (lower right) include bar-code and RFID readers, say the Apple device popularity is good for tablet computing, because it introduces more people to the form, and many will go on to more powerful machines. In the wings is Golden-i, a heads-up-display and voice-activated, remote-access computer controller (lower left) from Kopin Corp., is expected to hit the market soon.
