Drchrono isn't any uglier than what a lot of doctors using now. There's software out there that continues to use the blue and grey DOS style interface.

The hardware is the killer app here. The iPad and other tablets like it are off-the-shelf blank slates that cost less than $1,000 and run all day.

There are already proprietary tablets in the medical world, but they can cost thousands more per unit than the iPad and you're stuck with the software that's already on it.

You can go out and buy an iPad today and have electronic health records, medical imaging viewers, medical references and can move towards paperless environment for under five figures per year.
