They got upset over 450 iPads?  Good grief. The NYC Dept. of Education recently purchased 2,000 iPads to replace aging laptops and classroom PC's for some of it's teachers.

I believe, that the one initiating the salute must hold the salute until it is returned!

Let's not forget a still image is a fraction of a second of reality. I would think if one stepped through a video of a really excellent military salute to take a freeze frame one could make any salute look good, average, poor or terrible..

If you work for a company, ask HR or someone if they have registered for an Employee Purchase program through Apple.

iPads are not discounted through these programs.
