New York's The Plaza has iPads in every room

Since January, five-star hotel The Plaza in New York City has put in iPads in every room. Why? To control the room, what else!

The custom app that it runs replaces an older touch control panel. Watch the video below to see more.

You can use the iPad app to not only get room service, but also to control the lighting, air conditioning and more in the room.

Awesome!
