I have been busy learning how to use my new smartphone and downloading apps. I have resisted getting one until now but, golly, they are a lot of fun.
There are some pretty useful apps on them too.
We have a web portal that has military apps ranging from land navigation to coordinated support fire. Yes, we are starting to use smart phones and tablets in war.
I saw one a few months ago for the iPad, comes with a magnetic mount for a 120mm Mortar. you slap the tablet onto the mortar lengthwise, and it uses GPS and the angle of the gravity sensor to direct call for fire...
I think there's one that can remote control an MQ-8 in the event of controller failure as well.
