If you are like me and road trips with your kids is a nightmare or is like a ticking time bomb waiting for one to set it off and you have access to an iPad then maybe you need to look at Cynett’s CarGoholder for your iPad, I recently tried this over the New Year when we took a trip up to Guilderton here in Western Australia, it is about an hour a half from home so took the opportunity to try the CarGo for my 4 year...
Review: OtterBox Defender Case for iPad 2 & iPad 1
Posted by PPCApache on Nov 14, 2011 | 4 Comments
Recently this year I purchased an iPad 2, replacing my original iPad which i gave to my Wife Lisa. Both are now covered with a bit of OtterBox TLC namely OtterBox’s Defender case. There are quite a bit of a difference in the two cases other than colour of course. With the iPad 2 being loads thinner than its older counter part, and the introduction of the camera with the iPad 2 also has influenced a rethink of the...

I have a new OtterBox case that has joined my family – The OtterBox Commuter Case for the iPad (1st Gen) it now joins my Dell Streak, HTC Legend and iPhone 3G, I also had one for my old HTC HD2 that I sold last year, so as you can see we really love the OtterBox cases in our family.

Review: Apple iPad Keyboard Dock & Logitech M555b Bluetooth Mouse
Posted by PPCApache on Mar 05, 2011 | 6 Comments
Recently I had a choice of possibly buying a new notebook or maybe adding a keyboard / mouse to my iPad, instead of buying a new notebook at around $1100+ AUD which would have stretched the budget a bit I compromised and decided to get the Keyboard Dock and as my iPad is Jailbroken I installed BTStack Mouse from Cydia and bought a Logitech M555b Bluetooth mouse.
Here is my insight into the possible use of the iPad as...

Recent I was sent a case for my iPad from Speck – Yes my iPad now has some Batwing Black CandyShell love and it looks and feels great on the iPad.

Review: Pocket Informant for iPad vs. Dell Streak
Posted by PPCApache on Dec 06, 2010 | 6 Comments
Over the years I have used Pocket Informant for my WinMo devices from my Axim X51v, HTC HD2 but now that I no longer have any WinMo devices I wanted to check out this great app on my Dell Streak and my iPad 3G.
At first I thought this would be more like my iPhone vs. HTC HD2 head-to-head review but it turned out to be more of what each app brings to the platform it was built for. Find below screen shots from both...

Like Foursquare, Miso creates a fun social networking environment around check-ins, but instead of checking into physical locations, users check into television shows and movies at any given time through their mobile phone or through Miso’s main website.

ACCESS Offers Mobile eMagazine Service and Viewer
Posted by Marilyn Torres on Oct 27, 2010 | 6 Comments
A large number of the mobile magazine readers available are just that, readers. Articles are as dynamic as their embedded images. I read movie reviews on my Android phone through Greed, watch trailers and buy movie tickets through Fandango, and find the nearest movie theaters and restaurants through Google Maps. At this point, I’d love to consolidate all those apps to save as much of my smartphone’s storage...

The Tablet/iPad: Crock Pot Computing
Posted by Zealot on Sep 28, 2010 | 10 Comments
Do you remember the Crock Pot? When I was a kid, it was THE hot new kitchen appliance available in stylish Avocado or Terra Cotta enamel. Everyone wanted one, people actually bought several. It was an enormous Christmas gift, hundreds of thousands of couples got them as wedding presents. A Pot you plug in, with a timer…how brilliant. It spawned a whole culinary movement, “Slo-cooking”, and thousands of books of...
The Next iPad? Choose Your Rumor
Posted by Zealot on Sep 26, 2010 | 3 Comments
I don’t know why I am surprised that for all the rabid speculation that led up the the debut of the current iPad, the speculation about the second generation iPad is even more wild…mega-rabid even. Considering what a big hit the first version of the iPad has been, it stands to reason that people would want to see how Apple will try to top themselves this time. In fact there have been so many rumors, none of them really...
FileMaker Go Gets Major Update
Posted by Zealot on Sep 22, 2010 | 2 Comments
I have gone down on record already as being a big fan of FileMaker, ever since I first used their software on a Mac+ a few centuries ago. Very few companies have been able to take a program type as dry but essential as database management and make it so intuitive and pleasant to use. When FileMaker released Bento, their personal database creation tool for the iPad, I was eager to be among the first to review it and I...

New Kindle Ad Takes on iPad by the Pool
Posted by Zealot on Sep 13, 2010 | 6 Comments
Well it appears that Amazon has designated its current arch enemy in the ebook reader wars…and it doesn’t rhyme with “crook”. Yes, the iPad seems to be new target for Kindle ads in the US.
Check out the new one as it goes after three Achilles Heels of Apple’s “magical” tablet….size/weight, poor readability in sunlight and price, price, PRICE. Plus if you use an iPad you sunbathe in a lame tshirt, while...
iPad Entering Two Enormous Markets: China and Target
Posted by Zealot on Sep 13, 2010 | 2 Comments
Apple is on the verge of selling the iPad in two highly lucrative, but very very volatile and unpredictable markets; China and Target.
This Friday the iPad will finally go on sale officially in China via Apple Stores in China (owned by the brother of the owner of Apple’s manufacturing partner, Foxconn) as well as authorized resellers. Prices will be roughly that of other countries, with Chinese Apple fans being charged...
Google says Android is not ready for tablets
Posted by Gil Bouhnick on Sep 11, 2010 | 5 Comments
Talk about bad publicity. Just a few days after the exciting reveal of the Samsung Galaxy Tab and Samsung’s extreme Android affection, Google’s Hugo Barra, director of mobile products, claims in a typical engineering-honesty-that-can-really-ruin-sales that "Froyo is not optimized for use on tablets". Wow. Did you get this one? That could really speed up sales for Samsung’s Tab, couldn’t...
