SYNOPSIS:

Sam Forester from the University of Utah joins the pod this week to talk about AEiOS, a tool for managing iPads in an automated and managed fashion, using a bunch of tools to make sure that the iPad ends up personalized for its temporary user. Sam takes us from the development process to how they use AEiOS in their day-to-day operations, and how you could, too.
