In Pictures: 10 great work tools we can't live without

The promise of consumerisation is workers choosing their own tools to get the job done. Here are our favorites.

Verizon LTE on my iPad

When I bough a third generation iPad, I opted to pay extra for one with Verizon LTE. Although I understood the performance LTE can offer, I was still stunned by the average 25 mbps that is my average connection speed near my home in upstate NY (twice what Time Warner prodvides). Free tethering has led me to work virtually anywhere and I've developed impatience with slow Wi-Fi (I often switch my iPad's LTE connection when I encounter it). The extra up front cost and month-to-month data plan lets me optimize my plan as needed.
