Although at least a half-dozen companies all iPad released combination with Bluetooth wireless keyboards at almost the same time - thanks to developer cases so with a new, but not exclusive - design workshop accessory is the first, we know that a return with a revised version of second generation based on mixed feedback received by the initial models. tyPad Gen II ($100) continues to provide covered rubber keyboard, but it now has superior tactility than stored keys and buttons top page map more closely to the characteristics of the iPad function.

First looks: iKit AutoCon FM Transmitter + car charger

So we would like to congratulate last accessory iKit, the "FM Transmitter + Car Charger" AutoCon ($45), there is a certain problem not just prevents this so-called iPod, iPhone and device compatible iPad exactly what most people expect it. The good news is that the AutoCon is one of the most elegant that we have seen, FM transmitter with metallic blue fancy plugs connecting transmitter included black bright car bulb and your iPod, iPhone iPad. iKit has used a blue-backlit screen matching which he lend described as play/pause "Multi-Touch", indicating a number of large, bright, alongside the runway capacitive current radio station and call start and end of buttons which operate at the same time to control these features on the Apple devices. One side of the issuer includes tuning radio silver buttons and back has a hole microphone for iPhone hands free use. The bad news is that as the reference "Multi-Touch", "Car charger" request is not entirely reason. AutoCon cannot reload your handset and work as an FM transmitter at the same time: there is no dock connector, so the only thing he feeds is the FM - transmitter you must provide your own Apple USB charging cable (or a second charger and car power outlet) to feed the two elements simultaneously. In addition, button the screen lights out after a short period of inactivity, so you won't see them in a dark, car unless you play with the radio tuner to re-enable the. iKit has a pretty nice idea and designs on his hands here, but electronic execution could really use some rethinking.
