Since becoming far more proficient with it I have moved two manuscripts I am writing to the iPad. One of the manuscripts "Healthcares Next Tsunami A Patient's Primer" is researched and typed on my iPad. To that end I use Instapaper for research documentation and Pages for the actual writing. With practice and a good stylus I have become pretty fast at putting down the written word.

Rather than using antidotal information when visiting her doctor, I created a form based Numbers spreadsheet for her to document and chart her maintainence work out results and oxygen saturations. Her doctor loves it and she is able to better judge her situation.
