Boston to Deploy Mass-Casualty Tablet Device During Marathon
Press Release
Created:
Boston EMS is deploying a new, off-the-shelf, lightweight mobile device for the first time at the Boston Marathon on April 15.
The platform, from SafetyPAD, is intended for use in mass-casualty situations gives EMS personnel the ability to carry into crowds and assess a patient upon arrival, document in realtime, transmit data to transport units before they arrive, and other features.
Boston EMS will utilize the new Android-based program for bike and gator teams along race route.

Most likely a US government or Mossad operation. It will be interesting to watch this one unfold. I imagine the watchers are tracking communication now to ferret out links and connections of potential trouble makers!!
