As with most devices of this type, the color screen simply washes out to invisibility in sunlight. That being said, the device is a nice, small, very light "computer" to have on board, especially when in a case like this one: http://www.zagg.com/accessories/zagg...-keyboard-case It works with wi-fi when available, or on the same networks as any "smart" cell phone. The screen is very bright and usable "indoors," and the Zagg keyboard is easy to use, even for someone with clunky fingers like mine. On the boat, I mostly use the device to find venues and services at the various places we visit…museums, restaurants, et cetera. But it also works as a media server, and movies on its display are very "watchable." The sound output, though, is not that powerful, so you either have to use earbuds or plug into an external speaker. Most of the apps available for the iPhone are also available for the iPad, usually in versions scaled for the latter's larger screen. There are quite a few apps available for boaters…one of my favorites is "Knots 3D," which, as the name implies, presents good animations for tying all manner of…knots. There are also navigation apps, weather apps, fishing apps, just what you'd expect. My guess is that there are about 100 boating-related apps. Obviously, a decent laptop computer is more utilitarian than an iPad, but...for simple convenience, portability, et cetera, I like the iPad better than the laptop I used to use. This is another lie. Here's the proof: "It works with wi-fi when available, or on the same networks as any "smart" cell phone." Any tablet, iPad included, with wireless capability works on only ONE network and the iPad can only work on AT&T or Verizon. Wrong, JustHateClone. iPads are sold all around the world, and work on non-wi-fi networks that are not Verizon or AT&T. Further, you can change the SIM card in a US-released AT&T ipad to a European SIM card. Oh, and iPads will soon be avaliable for other networks in the USA, just as the new iPhone now is. In fact, I recently read that iPads for the SPRINT network will be available shortly. So, "Earl," if you need a shoehorn to work your head out of your ass, why, just borrow one from one of the other right-wing turds here. Oh, and my iPhone is unlocked, which means when I travel to Europe, I simply pop in a SIM card from a European services provider. Is there any limit to the ignorance these clown flaunt on a daily basis? I used to think there were limits to their ignorance, but JustSnot proved me wrong. It's so easy for you to overlook gems like this "these clown flaunt". This moron should be an embarrassment to you. Says the big sister of the most criminally insane poster in rec.boats history. You aren't enhancing your image here. These guys are operating at their highest level.. Grade school bullying is the only tool they have to fight free speech. You are aware of the literally scores of posters they have bullied off this group in the last ten years or so? |

Would that be anything like posting lies then calling people a **** when they catch you in them? JustSnot's use of that 'c' word is intriguing, n'est-ce pas? |
