The whole world is on the edge of its proverbial seat in anticipation of the big Apple iPad unveiling tomorrow. There is ample speculation about a higher resolution display, Siri capabilities, and 4G/LTE connectivity. All of those things would be nice, but there are some very specific things that would make the iPad 3 a better mobile computing platform for business use.

Android tablets thus far have failed to grab much market share, or slow the momentum of the Apple iPad. Other rivals like the HP Touchpad and BlackBerry PlayBook have fared even worse. But, tablets built on Windows 8 are on the imminent horizon, and they have the potential to integrate more seamlessly with the networks and Windows PCs that most businesses rely on.
