Document Review on the iPad

What's been missing most in e-discovery (besides lawyer competence) is the ability to emulate some of the best features of paper records, especially the ability to flip pages fast and riffle documents to gauge their consistency or relevance.

Reviewing and sorting e-documents at a workstation just doesn't feel right, and it makes lawyers long for bankers boxes.

But if you could flip through evidence on an iPad and use natural gestures to, say, propel non-responsive docs off-screen with a dismissive gesture or slide docs in other directions to sort them as responsive or privileged, document review would feel as natural and efficient as leafing through a stack of paper.
