iPad user accounts and profiles

[samulliner]

Hi!

We are looking at implementing iPads throughout our school, or at least getting a trolley of approx. 30 - however we are worried about security of students work.
Does anyone know anything about having specific user accounts on the iPad? is it possible? is it coming? HELP ME!!!

Thank you!

There is no concept of separate users or user profiles on the iPad - it's a single user device.

This is the same in current beta versions of iOS 5 and Apple have not announced anything that would suggest this is going to change in the future

Also...if you're looking for an implementation of a mdm solution...I do work for Mobile Iron.
