The IT Dept. loves them because it allows them to offer another service to their customers (the users) and to better support the medical professionals who will graduate and may be faced with these devices in the careers.
I think if more IT departments looked at their users as "paying customers", the IT Dept would be viewed as business drivers and not a hindrance to business growth. Instead of saying "I'm from IT, what I can I keep you from doing today", IT should be looking for ways to deliver value and service to their "customers".

The vendors that supply resources for the students already have apps available and the other apps will be run via Citrix and the Receiver for iPad. There may be over 500 iPads in use when the project is complete. All I can say is the I.T. Dept. loves them, the professors love them, the vendors love them and I will assume the students will love them.
