"Tablet technology holds great promise for insurance companies.  Some insurers have seen the immediate possibilities, but others are hanging back waiting for an obvious path to open up," said Ms. Haddad.  "CIO's and CTO's hold the unique and sometimes challenging role of being champions of new technology.  However, the fundamental question is always: What is the business value?"
