According to Randy Fusee, Global Apptitude partner, this is just the beginning. "This has been an extraordinary month for NFL teams' adoption of this new and exciting technology. We've had a lot of momentum and excitement around our solution and fully expect that 16-20 NFL franchises will be using our suite of player preparation tools by the start of training camp this summer."
As more teams continue to utilize the Playbook for iPad product suite, new productivity applications will continue to be added to the portfolio. "Our suite of products has been designed by NFL coaches and administrators, not software engineers. Our engineers are simply writing the code that matches how NFL coaches want to use the technology. That's why these products have been so successful, once a football coach sees what we have to offer, they start to see all of the benefits our software will provide for their players" said Fusee.

These new findings point to the striking penetration of smart phone enabled shoppers or "smart-shopping" into the everyday lives of Americans.
Based on data from a hybrid phone/online study conducted in December 2011 and February 2012 with a national sample of 314 smart phone owners, the survey found that sixty-six percent (66%) use their smart phones to aid in shopping, and thirty-eight percent (38%) do so while actually in a traditional retail store. Smart phone owners are about as likely to access shopping information in the store aisle (29%) as in the rest of the store (25%).
While actually near point of sale, shoppers are most likely to:
- Look up facts and features (15%)
- Compare prices at different stores (11%)
- Read product reviews on retail sites (9%)
- Compare prices at retailer's websites (8%)
"Smart phone enabled shopping or 'smart-shopping' is rapidly becoming a mainstream activity for smart phone owners. Given the rapid rise in smart phone ownership, traditional retailers and product brand managers face a new wave of challenges to serve increasingly informed and independent consumers," notes Owen Shapiro, Vice President of LJS. "The use of point of sale price checks breaks down one of the long-standing advantages held by retailers on 'blind priced' items – products that consumers buy infrequently or that are low involvement."
