Kensington Travel Products
Written by: Michael Mardings
Travel is made a little bit easier.
For the discerning laptop on the go, Kensington made a few new devices just to make life a little bit easier.
To start the ball rolling, where will you plug in? In the past I’ve used a little bag with small nobules that I had to attach to the plug here and there. Now this little Kensington adapter basically pops out like a switchblade, so it’s all compact and attached. Just flip a button and out comes the appropriate plug you need. It is easily the simplest and most efficient adapter we’ve yet seen.
Going along that theme, they have the 4-in-1 Ethernet Cable. Take a little tug, and the Ethernet cord or the USB cords pull right out. They have these little heads that attach to the cords so the Ethernet cable can turn to a regular cable. The other side handles a digital camera, and with the little attachable heads, they can turn into a firewire or a USB.
Next up, an easy clip on to your laptop bag, the WiFi Finder Plus. Basically it’s a little WiFi detector which can detect an 802.11 network, a Bluetooth network and the strength too. I say it’s a great clip on to your laptop bag because it’s ruggedly connected, and on your zipper pocket, it’s out where you need it. Plus it has a flashlight which helps for traveling.
Speaking of Bluetooth, the Bluetooth USB Adapter is a small USB adapter that is ridiculously easy to use. In fact, you can turn any computer into a Bluetooth computer by just popping this right in. It works great if you have any Bluetooth devices and your computer doesn’t have built in Blue-tooth. Or if you want a wireless mouse, just use their little Bluetooth Mouse, and you're good to go.
Overall, their simple plug-in devices do the job and make your traveling life a little easier. And when it comes to traveling, that’s just what I want: a little ease by something not to complicated.
