Check out this iPad disguise! It's just a plain old newspaper with a cutout so that you can view your iPad. I guess this will lower the chances that they might get mugged? Well, if you are that paranoid, then sure make a magazine disguise while you're at it.

You can be like all the normal people and carry your iPad around in a bag OR you can be unique and carry your iPad around inside your jacket. A tailor in New York has customized jackets so that you can keep your iPad close to you at all times. One things for sure, the jacket doesn't magically make the iPad weigh nothing. So if you don't mind your iPad smacking against you while you walk, then this is what you have been looking for.

iPad + Velcro = AWESOMENESS

Wow, I never thought of this but apparently Velcro is the BEST car mount so far! (unless you go custom) As a matter of fact its the best all around mount! You can mount you iPad to anything!

Check this video out! It's definitely worth the time.

iPad Accessory: eReader Recliner

William Wallace — Fri, 21 May 2010 21:32:23 +0000

This is probably one of the coolest stand/dock for the iPad. It's called the eReader Recliner and its pretty much a reclining chair for the iPad or even a Kindle or any other eReader. You can either lay it flat, where it will be laying on the curved back so that you can tilt the iPad towards or away from you. Or you have the option to pull out the kick stand and prop it up for easy reading or display. The only thing I DON'T like about this accessory is that it looks like it is not too portable.

Don't get me wrong, I still like this accessory but I would only want to use it at home or at the office.Ã‚Â I don't want to lug a big piece of plastic everywhere I go. Unfortunately you can't find this on HandHelditems.com but you can find it online for about $30.

iPad Steering Wheel Mount

William Wallace — Fri, 21 May 2010 19:57:40 +0000

This is one of the stupidest ideas for mounting an iPad in the car. This guy mounts the iPad right onto the steering wheel (where the horn is) and says that this is a lot safer than using your iPhone to text or read. Like anyone reads books and newspapers while they drive right? What if he crashes? his airbags will shoot the iPad right into his chest. People come up with the craziest things.

**UPDATE: This is Fake.

AT&T's HSPA+ Network For 185 Million Users

William Wallace — Sun, 16 May 2010 16:00:11 +0000

AT&T has just announced (in NY) that they will be launching their HSPA+ network and it will cover over 250 million people depending on their software roll out. That just basically means that when it does come out, you might not get it right away. Depending on your phone and it's manufacturer, the software update will go out according to whenever the manufacturer decides to distribute it. If you're wondering what HSPA+ is, well first thing I will let you know is that this is NOT 4G. It is a next generation 3G network that will run at about double the speed of 3G, approximately 7.2Mbps. Which is pretty fast in my book. T-Mobile has also announced their HSPA+ network which will cover roughly 185 million people by the end of the year. Their network is actually VERY VERY fast, I even had to use the word twice. But in the long run IF T-Mobile beats out the other providers with the fastest 3G network, Sprint, Verizon, and AT&T are all working on their 4G networks, which will smoke ALL of the 3G speeds regardless of how good and fast they are. So I guess we get something before 4G comes through.

The Golden iPad

William Wallace — Fri, 14 May 2010 19:00:55 +0000

First let me start by saying, I knew this was coming. I don't know if you guys have seen the Crystal iPad and the Diamond iPad, but if you guys did you probably would be saying the same thing. Stuart Hughes has come out with 10 golden iPads, each come with 53 diamonds that are set into the Apple logo and the whole outer casing is crafted with 22ct gold. If you feel like you want one of these gold iPads, just dish out $189,000 and you got it!

iPad Wi-Fi Connectivity Issue Fix!

William Wallace — Fri, 14 May 2010 18:08:27 +0000

Well there has been some complaints about the iPad Wi-Fi models having Wi-Fi connectivity issues. Low signals, bad connectivity, or no connectivity plagued some of the iPad. When these people complained to Apple, Apple just said that they have never seen this problem before and there was nothing to do about it. So the problem persisted and now Apple comes out and says that yes, there is a problem and it would require an update to fix that problem. So until then people experiencing the connectivity issues will have to deal with it until the software update. But some people have been reporting a "fix." Apparently if you were to turn the brightness levels all the way up and turn off auto brightness, it would fix the problem. Sounds stupid right? but Apple did confirm it, so this is the temporary fix for now.
