Hockey puck meets Tablet PC

You'd expect a professional sports team in Silicon Valley to use technology to get a leg up on the competition, and Wired News has a story about how coaches of the San Jose Sharks NHL hockey team are using wireless Tablet PCs connected back to a digital video recorder to pour over the minute details of each play so they can adjust their game strategy in real-time. Even creepier, they can also pull up a catalog of video clips of each opposing player to see how they'll react in certain situations.
