NFL teams to use iPads for playbooks
Here's an AP article out of Denver yesterday that says that 14 NFL teams have replaced their paper playbooks with iPads.

This has been talked about a great deal in Denver. The Broncos have gone to it. One of our players even tweeted a picture of the iPad which had a page of the playbook clearly visible. Needless to say, it created quite a stir out here.

Broncos video director Steve Boxer figures it will take about a year to begin realizing a cost savings from ditching the paper playbooks that consumed trees, money and manpower and kept copy machine repairmen on speed-dial.
Quote:
The league is also experimenting with the use of iPads by medical staffs on the sidelines this season, NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said.
Quote:
Although half of the NFL’s teams are still using paper playbooks and DVDs, just about every locker in the league has an iPad in it.

“All these guys are techies anyway, because they’ve been doing this stuff growing up,” Packers defensive co-ordinator Dom Capers said.

Watching film has become so easy that players say they’re watching more of it.
Not a bad use of technology. Looks like college football and pro hockey are using them too.
