Teaching an Online Class with an iPad 3G

Charlie Motzko
September-October 2011

When the iPad was introduced on January 27, 2010, I wondered if the platform would work in an educational environment. I started tracking online comments and documenting how different people were using the iPad, focusing on problems that were encountered and how success was achieved.

LogMeIn Ignition on sale for $20

image

Just a quick note that LogMeIn Ignition is on sale for $19.99 instead of $29.99.  I paid full price and it's been worth it for me and I know several of my colleagues here at iPhone Life use it too.  I use the free LogMeIn service on my macs and I can control them remotely from my iPad (or iPhone, though the smaller screen is less practical).  Now that a Bluetooth keyboard is supported by iOS, this makes the iPad even more practical.  Indeed, I've been able to leave the MacBook at home and travel with just an iPad and still be able to connect to my server, etc.

iView: No More Laptop

I've been waiting 25 years for the iPad!
Hal Goldstein
Summer 2010

In 1985, our company launched a print magazine about the new 9-pound HP 110 Portable PC— the first clamshell DOS laptop. The HP 110 was designed by the HP division that invented the calculator. Hewlett-Packard applied its considerable knowledge of small computing devices and created the HP Portable.

Been waiting 25 years for the iPad

We started our company in 1985 with a print newsletter about the new 9 pound HP 110 Portable PC. It was the first clamshell DOS laptop. It featured solid state memory, storage, and built-in software (no mechanical hard drive). It was instant on, had long battery life, and at the time light-weight (if you remember the Compaq luggable).

In the 1990's HP produced the HP 200LX Palmtop, about which we published a magazine. It was the first and only DOS clamshell palmtop. It had a niche but incredibly loyal following -- so much so that we still buy, sell and repair them. A number of us wanted HP to “blow it up” – make it bigger in order to have a functional, light-weight, long lasting laptop on the road.

LogMeIn Ignition — use your iPhone to control your computer

image

LogMein Ignition is not only functional but has a certain wow factor to it. Imagine whipping out your iPhone wherever you are and using it to control your computer at home or at work, including accessing all the applications. The app (for iPhone and iPod touch) costs $30, and a limited version of the service is free. As I understand it, the paid service, which costs $70 per year, allows you to access multiple computers.

LogMeIn Ignition

By Nathan Clevenger

LogMeIn IgnitionIf you don’t have a XenApp infrastructure, you can’t use the Citrix Receiver described above. Fortunately, you can access many of the same capabilities with LogMeIn’s remote desktop access solution. You’ll need to install the LogMeIn software on your home or work PC and LogMeIn Ignition on your iPhone. Once that’s done, you’ll be able to connect to your PC from your iPhone, wherever you are, and access your documents or applications. You need a constant wireless connection for this solution (the faster the better), and you may have to do a lot of scrolling and zooming, but the cost is much less than the Citrix solution.
