Pocket PC's Save Money!?!

"Lahey Clinic has saved about $1 million per year since it fully implemented a hand-held charge capture system in 2003, says Linda A. Cagle, senior vice president, support services... The automation has resulted in the elimination of lost charges and an increase in the accuracy of claims, which have led to financial savings for Lahey. The clinic also has been able to eliminate several full-time employees that previously were responsible for entering the charges, which also has led to savings, Cagle says. "

This article from Dave's iPAQ highlights something that we rarely see quantified - the amount of money and time saved by utilizing mobile devices to their potential. More often than not, Pocket PCs are purchased by companies who are sold on their potential to save money in the long run, but do not see actual numbers to that effect. I suppose this is one case where we can see that benefit, can turn a myth of saving money into a fact, and a nice example to cite when winning converts ;) How many of you have seen a quantified difference in your workplace after rolling out some sort of mobile technology?
