NFL replaces black-and-white photographs with Surface tablets on the sidelines

For decades, NFL players and coaches have pored over black-and-white overhead photos of in-game formations from the sidelines. This season, the NFL's finally upgrading to tablets. At every game (starting with today's Hall of Fame match between the Bills and Giants), each team will be provided with a temperature-controlled locker filled with 13 modified, field-ready Surface Pro 2 tablets. The NFL's rules currently prohibit all computers and video devices from the field — hence why teams still use Polaroids.
