iPad Holiday Gift Ideas: Greg Fitzsimmons' E-book, 'Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons'

Need something to read over the holidays on your iPad?  Well, with help from the Kindle app you hve access to everything Amazon offers.

I suggest Greg Fitzsimons' new book 'Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons' in e-book form.

Greg Fitzsimmons has achieved success as a stand-up comedian, Emmy Award winning writer/producer and Radio/TV host. A regular with David Letterman, Conan O’Brien, Jimmy Kimmel, and Jay Leno, Greg has made more than fifty visits to “The Howard Stern Show” and hosts his own weekly radio show on Sirius XM’s "Howard 101.” His bi-weekly podcast "FITZDOGRADIO" is one of the most downloaded on iTunes.

This book is getting rave reviews, and I can't wait to read it myself. 

Get it here for yourself, or send it to a friend.

iPad Holiday Gift Ideas: PNY zoomIt SDHC Flash Memory Card Reader

zoomIt is a revolution in managing content with the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. Combining application software with an intelligent accessory, zoomIt adds SD and SDHC capability and media management tools that allow you to easily view, listen to, and transfer your photos, music, video clips and files on the go without the need to connect to your camera, Mac or PC.

The zoomIt adapter allows Apple handset owners to look at photos, play music, and read documents off an SD card by connecting to your handset’s charging port. This is coupled with a smart software that optimizes your device’s digital experience with a simple user interface to transfer content to and from your flash memory card and Apple device.

When you connect the adapter for the first time you will be prompted onscreen to download a free iPhone app that controls the media files on your memory cards. For photos and documents you will have pushbutton options to e-mail them or post them to the photo sharing website Flickr, or upload them to your Facebbok account. For each of these applications the app will shrink large files down to an e-mail, Flickr, or Facebook-approriate size to make the transfer from the card to the iPhone or iPod Touch as quick as possible without sacrificing any more image resolution than necessary.

With zoomIt you can take your digital library to go, and have the ultimate mobile media solution… The free app “zoomIt” not only provides an easy content manager, but also adds media capability to your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch enabling you to listen to, view, and share MP3 music files. You can also do the same with video clips*. Transfer content in various video formats such as MOV, H.264, and MP4. Load them to your SDHC card and transfer to your handset with zoomIt to view off your Apple device, email or upload to sharing sights such as YouTube.

The app provides pretty good functionality, allowing bidirectional transfer, not restricted to photos, can even do RAW photos. It allows ALL photos to be transfered in a batch, selected photos in a batch, or single photos. Photos and files can be renamed. Files can be stored in ZoomIt created directories, or copied to the iPad photo application folders.

iPad Holiday Gift Ideas: GZ iPad Tablet Stand

A crafted wood stand that your iPad will fit perfectly in. 

The stand and speaker go with you wherever you go providing a portable amplified entertainment experience. 

The custom made cedar stand has two slots.  The slot furthest from the speaker works very well with the Apple iPad case, in addition to, many other of the thinner cases.  This slot also works well with no case if you want more angle for viewing.  The slot closest to the speaker works well for the iPad with no case. 

 

The iPad can be positioned in both vertical and horizontal modes.  The speaker is placed in the customized circular area in the front of the stand.  In horizontal mode, the cord would go to the left to plug into the headphone jack and in vertical mode the cord will go to the right.  Please see images of how to place the ipad in the slot and still have the cord reach the headphone jack.

The stand comes with feet to protect surfaces. The stand should also work well with many other tablet computers on the market currently and others to come.

This ultra-portable speaker produces full-bodied, 360-degree sound that is much better quality then many speakers that are twice it's size and cost.  The included 3 AAA batteries provide up to 24 hours of play.    The speaker has only an on and off switch. The volume is controlled by the unit it is plugged into.
