VPI Posted May 7, 2010 Report Posted May 7, 2010 So I thought my iPad became possessed yesterday. When Dinny and I were at lunch I got the iPad out of the bag and found that music was playing from the speaker. I opened the iPod app and turned that off. Later when I put it to sleep it would wake back up a few seconds later when I was trying to put it in the bag. Later upon packing up to go home I shoved everything in the bag and once again got music and could not get it to go to sleep. This time I switched screens a couple of times and ended up in the search screen at which time the search window started filling up with a series of 6666666, etc.. I was getting up to take the iPad to St. Patrick's Cathedral, assuming those guys would know how to deal with this, when I noticed the Bluetooth symbol lit up and remembered that I had the Apple Bluetooth keyboard in my bag as well. Evidently I had forgotten both times to turn it off and when shoved in the bag keys had been inadvertently pushed causing all the craziness to take place. My iPad is not possessed. I think. Quote
The Monkey Posted May 7, 2010 Report Posted May 7, 2010 Nonsense. Your iPad is indeed possessed. That's what made me drink from the glass our check came in. Quote
blessingx Posted May 8, 2010 Author Report Posted May 8, 2010 BTW, there are several streaming audio apps that background run through Mobile Safari. I use the iPhone WMFU app on the iPad this way. Wunder Radio supposedly does also, though I haven't tried it on the iPad version (this claims it - the iPhone one works like a charm on the iPhone). Confirmed background streaming in Wunder Radio (under "i" - info button). Quote

The Monkey Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Shelly, how are you liking your Timbuk2 bag? Quote
aardvark baguette Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Has anyone tried watching an entire movie or show in HD on their ipad? If so, is it boiling hot afterwards? Quote
tyrion Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Another case option. Dinny, why haven't you told of your partnership with Ray Samuels: MAXPEDITION Jumbo Versipack - Shoulder Bag Quote
shellylh Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) ^^^A lot (except the lack of outside pocket for phone as I already mentioned once before). One thing: One the one I got, it has a special pocket for a netbook/ipad. However, the pocket is lined with red felt. I have been a little worried about the red dye bleeding onto the screen of the ipad over time so I have been carrying the ipad inside the Belkin case, inside of the pocket in the bag. I feel that this is a little too much bulk for me but I think it will be a lot better when I get my Apple case. Oh, yeah, and I wish it had a place to put a couple of pens.

Salt Peanuts Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Another case option. Dinny, why haven't you told of your partnership with Ray Samuels: MAXPEDITION Jumbo Versipack - Shoulder Bag Stupid filter at work won't let me see it. Appearently, it considers Milspec Monkey to be a danger to children. Quote

I'm thinking I might want to go one size up. Another case option.

Voltron Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Another case option. Dinny, why haven't you told of your partnership with Ray Samuels: MAXPEDITION Jumbo Versipack - Shoulder Bag And he is apparently using Ari as his MilSpecModel. Quote
Voltron Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 He's got a Nikon strapped to his crotch, but you can't see it in this pic. Quote
tyrion Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) My booq murse arrived. Taking on a trial run to the Apple Store for a Genius appointment for my daughters comp. So far, other than my son, no one has made fun of me but the night is young. It has a pocket on thie lid for my carry gun which is nice. It's not in a tactical position for when I have to pull it but considering that is a highly unlikely situation, I'm not going to worry about it. Edited May 10, 2010 by tyrion Quote
The Monkey Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Pull it on the genius if he makes fun of the murse. Quote
tyrion Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 I'm walking around the mall waiting for him do do some work on the comp and these very well groomed men keep coming up to me offering to buy me a drink. Damn, these appletinis are good. Quote
The Monkey Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Heh, I am very jealous now (really). Slow day at work so I did a lot of mursesearch. But now I'm convinced I need a new briefcase instead--AND a murse. Off to start a bags thread... Quote
morphsci Posted May 12, 2010 Report Posted May 12, 2010 So I confirmed today that the iPad fits perfectly into either the right or left inside lower pocket of the Orvis Ranger jacket. Cool beans. Quote
