Title: Great Idea - Not So Great Execution
Review: I needed a new power adapter for my Powerbook, so this seemed like a great idea. For for a little bit more than Apple's AC adapter I could get AC and DC with connections for auto and airplanes.The only problem is, it doesn't work very well. The Smarttip connector for the Powerbook will not keep a connection. I continually have to check the power indicator on my Powerbook and twisting the connector to make sure the battery is being charged.Kensington also seems to have fudged on the power specification. They claim 70 watts, but the Powerbook's System Profiler reports 45 watts. This means that the battery takes much longer to charge than Apples adapter. In fact, while I am using it, it barely charges at all. If I set the Powerbook down, likely as not the Smarttip loses its connection and I come back to a dead battery.So, there's a great idea here. Perhaps someday, someone will implement it in a competent way.
