I totally agree with you, and I don't see it changing.
Apple has trapped itself into a corner with the Apple ID. Apple puts on regular seminars for local school districts every 6 months or so in my area about how to integrate iPads for K12, and it is just brutal. At least 60% of the answers from the Apple rep is usually "you can't use it like that".
The hardships all come from the way that the Apple ID works. Apple wants the iPad to be a "personal device" for one person, but obviously in a school setting it doesn't work that way. The workarounds they have for school districts are laughable to the point that the Apple rep(s) always admit it to us when talking about manageability, security and tracking.
I love my iPad, but its just not enterprise/public school/multiuser friendly yet.
- jpxxx 14y agoAgree so much. Apple ID hell is a Real World Problem and I suspect making real changes to how it all works would take some herculean efforts - daunting even for Apple.
