TechCrunch writer Jordan Crook’s girlfriend spotted this gent strolling through Grand Central Station in New York – with his iPad tucked into the back of his trousers.
Yikes. Somebody please get this man a case, a messenger bag, anything that gets that iPad away from his backside.
What do you all think? Please tell me this is not how iPad business users roll. :)
What was he thinking?
Sorry to report … But I carry mine much the same way when moving between meetings. While using a cane to walk, this old ‘military style’ of tucking away the ‘clipboard’ keeps my hands free.
one way he won’t lose it, or will he?
He is an easy mark for an aggressive pick pad.
But he’s a Fed and has a great gun app.
I have a case but have done this several times.
He needs help
I reckon this guy would be rapt if Apple released a smaller, Brazilian-made iPad!
I work with retired military and they are always strolling around with steno pads and clipboards tucked in their back waistband like this….
Might be a convenient no hands carrying spot, but he is a prime candidate for someone to quickly pick pocket his iPad.
I’d be afraid that I’d crack the screen. Very expensive.
I read that many iPads are used in the smallest room. I have also seen dress faux pax when people leave said place. Am I making 5 from 2+2?
He’s just nicked it, and is strolling nonchalantly out of the store…SECURITY!!!
