US Air Force Looking to Buy 18 Thousand iPads

The USAF put a new contract up for bid last week. They’re looking to buy between 63 and 18,000 “iPad 2, Brand Name or Equal devices”. for the flight crews of the C-5 Galaxy and C-17 Globemaster, 2 cargo aircraft that are used to move the majority of military freight.
