Press said the US president at one point liked to receive his secret briefings on an ipad. I met the person who ran the contract to take ipads, and modify them so they could be used in this role. I don’t remember exactly the number he told me, but it was pretty shocking, I can’t remember if it was 10k+, 100k+, or 1m+ though. The work was interesting and while there was a profit margin, my understanding is that it wasn’t just graft, they actually had to do a lot of hardware and software work.

Huh, that’s a good usecase I hadn’t thought about.
