I need statistics (US) on the current usage and near term growth
projections on PDA hardware, software, and wireless networking
technologies in medical teaching institutions with particular focus on
nursing (Schools of Nursing, Medical Schools, Teaching Hospitals), I
am interested in platform specifications (Palm vs. Pocket PC) and the
penetration of related wireless communication technologies (802.11,
Bluetooth). I do not need information on specific vendors so much as
an increased understanding of US market penetration, with an
understanding of the most popular methodologies (although if there are
some particularly dominant vendors of this technology in medical
education it would be helpful to know specifics) To give you a better
perspective on what I am working on: I need this information because
I am developing a specific multimedia product for medical training and
am considering producing a PDA companion application in addition to
our regular product, however I want to know more about how useful this
would be to the end user and what technologies to focus on. It would
be great to see an answer to this question within two weeks. |
