LCD Screen can t see them in bright sunlight even had to take off my sunglasses to read the display Garmin produces LCD displays that eminently more readable even in sunlight Apparently TomTom did not consider this issue to be that important Map Updating Issues The other major problem is its inability to download new maps without hanging up personally could not download the latest maps but there are others on the web that find that Macs especially are not us er friendly for upgrading maps Although TomTom was one of the first GPS makers that supported the Mac they haven t kept up with Apple s software updates GPS makers should make it extremely easy to do up dates Garmin simplifies this function although it takes 3 4 hours to update using DSL connections LIVE Services TomTom s main feature as compared to its com petition is its LIVE Services function This function automatically connects to the Internet to provide the user with useful info while driving such as traf fic updates current gas prices restaurants weather info etc In addition TomTom has added Local Google Search that enables the user to check on nearby doctors restaurants and other sites of interest What is hard to understand with LIVE Services is that many of these searches can be done more easily with today s iPods iPads or smartphones So what exactly is the advantage of having your GPS do these searches TomTo

Good Samaritan continued the g5 that HAD to be saved Any new stuff was on his MacPro he s been running the last several months and everything his wife would need to get started was on the laptop So put in the 10 5 dvd he brought restarted from it set Disk Utility to erase the drive writing zeros across it and came to make these notes while its still fresh in my mind When the erase is done l Il re install the system do the system updates start the laptop in firewire disk mode copy his stuff off the laptop to the g5 tower and hope fully have him back up and running on his account again He can set up the account for his wife and deal with her bank access etc when he gets the machine home Moral of the story Don t always believe ads They may be trying to give sell you something you don t need don t want Maybe even do some checking before downloading stuff even free stuff What was it they used to say something like If it sounds too good to be true it probably isn t true Up for Auction 1 Linksys Ethernet Bridge 2 Pogoplug 2 3 Bluetooth Keyboard Case for iPad

7. like case for the iPad with an attached keyboard Using Bluetooth technology built into the iPad makes it easy to connect the keyboard to your iPad Like all Bluetooth devices just make the keyboard discoverable and the iPad will find it and ee make a connection It s cds that simple In fact to make this process even easier Kensington has included a large Connect button on the keyboard The Bluetooth Keyboard Case for iPad includes a mini USB cable that you can use to charge the keyboard You need to occasionally attach your iPad AC charger to the cable to keep it powered For testing this step was not necessary Set Up Setting up the keyboard was an extremely simple process 1 Turn on Bluetooth on your iPad 2 Press the Connect button on the keypad 3 Wait until the Bluetooth Keyboard Case shows Connected 4 You re ready to go Evaluation Typing on this keyboard was extremely easy It s rubber and slightly smaller keys than a standard keyboard were easy to use for typing but did get some getting used to Once you are familiar with the look and feel of the keyboard it was extremely easy to use There were some negatives with to this keyboard as well The smaller keys may make it more difficult to type for someone with larger hands The layout although it had a QWERTY format did have some sub standard features when compared to a regular keyboard The most glaring error was a lack
8. of a right hand SHIFT key This keyboard only has a SHIFT key on the left side and required some personal adjustments The other negative was the weight factor Adding a keyboard to a case added an additional pound compared the weight of my Griffin Elan Folio Slim case without keyboard to the Kensington model The Griffin case weighed 1 Ib 10 oz while the Kensington model weighed 2 Ibs 8 oz nearly a pound heavier Size is also a critical factor as well The spine on the Kensington case is a full 1 while the Apple or other case makers is 2 This may not seem critical but the thinness factor of the iPad would not come into play with this case Conclusion The Kensington Bluetooth Case for iPad would seem to be an attractive alternative for someone who frequently needs a constant keyboard attached to the iPad This may seem really attractive when you factor in the cost This keyboard has a list price of 99 99 but discounts can be found around the 65 70 price point This would normally not be more than one would pay for a case alone If you only need a keyboard on occasion a separate iPad keyboard like the Targus Bluetooth Keyboard that sells for around 50 may be more viable Of course this keyboard is not attached Buying a case for your iPad is a personal decision When selecting an iPad case you should factor in what activities you do most frequently and the relative importance of size weight and con
