That's not a problem for every electronic device, so it's hardly an issue. If the iPad isn't convenient for office use, some other device will be adopted (or built) that is.
Businesses have also altered their procedures to accommodate computer applications before (witness email use), so there's no need to assume offices will accept zero change to adopt to a new technology or system.
Show them how it will save them boatloads of money, though, and most companies will eventually come around.
