Hey man!

I have a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard - use it with and Android tablet, 
but I think they have one that can do iPads, to - dim memory of some ad 
somewhere tells me that! And a Bluetooth mouse is a dream with that tablet.

Cheers
Vern

But in a corporate environment that should not be too big a challenge unless they need to use home printers. Basically there are no (few?) directly connectable printers - you effectively use Google print as the spooler.  It occurs to me that this might present problems in hotels where they usually block direct device to device communication.
