Need advice on a car adapter for SGPT112US/S

I'm really surprised to think that Sony hasn't provided a USB adapter for this tablet.  Seems a simple thing to do, in view of the fact that it is so basic and a NECESSITY!   Please provide me with the specs (like voltage output requirements) so I can buy an aftermarket one.  It appears that the 5v USB output on my computer is insufficient to do the job either.  I saw that an inverter for the ac adapter was mentioned, but I think thats not what I would want. 

I find it interesting that Sony would offer a mobile device dependent solely on household current.  No, I think the word rediculous is more appropriate.  So,  I can use the GPS on the road, as long as the drive is no longer than 8 hours, or less, based on the fact that the battery really won't last as long as it was stated in the marketing literature.  Come on Sony!  All the development costs to build the tablet, then get chintzy on such a cheap thing to make.  At least tell me what the input voltage should be so I can buy something compatible.   This is BS

  • In-car adapter for macbook air - what's the latest on this please?

    I've got the latest macbook air and need to use it, and charge it, from a 12 volt car socket. I understand that I cannot do this though - surely I must have been misinformed?
    It seems that apple do make an "empower" socket rated at 15 volts that you can use on a plane, but it doesn't recharge the battery. However, clearly this limits the usefulness of sorting out some kind of rig-up, suggested in some chat rooms, with a dc-dc (ie 15v - 12v) adapter.
    Does anyone know where a dc in-car adapter for a macbook air is available?

    Modern Outpost is coming out with a MacBook 12V DC car adaptor, and are hoping to add an Air adaptor in the near future...

    I see the comments about using an AC Inverter, but I prefer to speak about solutions that will work with solar chargers too. An AC inverter will not only NOT work from a solar panel without extra & heavy equipment, but it wastes more than 20-40% of your power... first it converts your battery power to dirty household AC, then your Apple adaptor converts it back to DC for your Mac.
    I suggest using a DC adaptor and bypass the middleman.

  • Which car adapter for PB 17 ?

    I am looking for a car adapter for a Powerbook 1.5 17". One model that is readily available in my area is the Targus Car Air, a universal laptop model with 70W output. It does also work as a main power adapter, which would be good if the original fails on the move. But it is sold through the PC shops and there is no mention of older Apple plugs. Anyone knows, or has another model to suggest? Would 70W be okay with an added external USB powered drive? Thanks!

    go to wal-mart and to the auto section. In the same aisle as the car stereos you will see some ipod accessories that are not in the electronics section. They will tell you on the package which one is for your ipod. You can probably go to walmart.com and look it up too.

  • Car adapter for zen xtra 40 or 60

    Hello all!
    I did do a message search for this question, but I couldn't find what I was looking for...so I apologize in advance if this has been asked and answered.
    I'm thinking of buying a zen xtra 40 or 60 GB tomorrow, but I really need the car adapter to charge and/or play it. Is there one available? I read on an Amazon review that you could buy one at Radio Shack or Bed Bath and Beyond? Can anyone verify this?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as my decision is based upon this answer...
    Thanks
    dave

    I had the same problem.
    The car charger for the Zen Xtra is not listed on the main page accessories:

    You have to go to the Zen Xtra page first and then look in the accessories to find it:

      Chassis and Power  
    The Studio XPS 9100 is 19.4 inches high by 7.8 inches wide by 20.7 inches deep. It weighs about 40 pounds. A 525-watt power supply powers the computer.
    I use Audition, Premiere Pro and After Effects (Dynamic Link) to edit concerts filmed on 4 HD Camera's (m2ts x3 and mp4) I also take and mix 6-8 tracks from soundboard and mix in audition. I find my system is struggling to keep up when I have done some color correction and then try to cut in multi-cam mode. My graphics card does not support CUDA and as stated above my system only has a 525w power supply. So a GeForce GTX 470, 570, 580 would not be compatable. I do not GAME but I work with large HD files (4 angles, 1-2 hours each, audio & effects).
    My trouble is I don't know which one of the graffics cards that support Mercury play back, would be the best for my needs without having to upgrade my power source (if possable). I'm thinking a mid level card and another 8-12 ram upgrade would be more suited (and cheaper) to my needs, unless I'm going to need a power upgrade anyway. If someone could please let me know what card would help me with my worload of these that would be great! I guess what Im saying is can someone tell me which of these is compatable with my system and is it worth it for the change in performance I will see?

    Right now I can get a 570 for 175 bucks... R4yMoNd. When I look at the 570 in comparison  to what I have it doesnt look as though itis going to make too much difference. http://www.hwcompare.com/9048/geforce-gtx-570-vs-radeon-hd-5870/ I'm sure however the CUDA cores will speed it right up. I'm no good when it comes to all that so thanks to both you for the help. I have tracked down a 670 in stock (seems tough) for $440 then I need a 700 w power supply for about 70. If the 570 should take care of the problems listed above thats what I'm going for.. Just wasnt sure if it would make the needed difference

  • Need advice in writing forum component for a GUI application

    Hello,
    I need to write a forum component for a GUI application, that is a visual component that would have all the usual forum functionality - creating threads, posting replies, editing, logging in, etc. I'm planning to use some existing forum engine on a JBoss/Tomcat server. So I do not need a web-interface for a forum, but I need find some engine written in java with a clear interface that I could use in my app. I tried JForum (http://www.jforum.net) first, but it seems it doesn't have open API I could utilize.
    Could anyone please suggest appropriate engine, possibly anyone knows of open-source forum GUI apps I can look at?

  • IS CREATIVE MAKING A CAR ADAPTER FOR ZEN MICRO LIKE APPLE MADE FOR iP

    Does anybody know if they will create a similar product?

    Apple makes no such thing really (that I know of). I believe Belkin makes a lot of their car products as well. The closest is the iTrip.
    For something that plugs in like a standard headphone jack, you need a way into your CD player. be it if your head-unit has RCA jacks, a standard headphone-in, a line-in, or anyother hook-up. If not, you have to find a way in through a third-party box.
    I know for Honda Accords, SoundGate makes such a product.
    If nothing can be found for your vehicle you will need a tape->CD adapter or an FM modulator.
    For the tape option, you need a tape player in the car. The quality will not exceed tape quality.
    For the FM option, you can get a stand alone (just a little broadcaster that you tune too on your radio) or an inline (plugs into your antenae; you still tune in but it has better quality).
    Hope that helps!

  • Do I need a a/c usb adapter for my shuffle?

    when i plug in my new shuffle it shows up in iTunes and will load songs and all but doesn't seem to want to charge. Does this mean I need a wall outlet plug in adapter or is the battery just dead? I already tried restoring it. Please help!

    It will only charge from a high-power USB port. It's not exactly unknown for even well-known manufacturers (Dell,for example) to cheat down on power supplied to their USB ports, which could be a cause for your problems.
    If iTunes is seeing it then it is in fact seating well enough and, all else being equal, it would be able to charge. Try it in a different port, try on a different platform, or perhaps look into one of the USB power adapter rigs. Those range from pretty nice looking and expensive (from Apple) to fairly ugly but cheaper and still functional.

  • Need advice on creating 2nd account for child

    Hi,
    I have an iTunes account on my single user Mac that I've been using for years. My son just got an iPod and I want to set up an account for him to be able to download music, movies, apps etc for his use. Is this possible with only a single user account system or do I need to set up a login account for him too? I want to be able to set limits for him too like dollar limits per month, movie rating limits (PG) etc. I see where I can set rating limits for my account but I don't see how those will change when he uses the system.
    Any advice will be appreciated.

    I would suggest you set him up his own user account in Mac OS X. That will be a lot less fuss, and you can use the Parental Controls in Mac OS X and iTunes in his account to control what he can access without having to limit your own use.
    To give him a dollar limit in the iTunes Store, set him up his own iTunes Store account and either buy him prepaid iTunes cards or gift certificates or set him up an allowance. For more information on these options, see:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/tutorials/#store-giftcertificates
