CoverSutra Is Back from the Dead — Your Music Sidekick, Right in the Menu Bar
Sean Buckley, writing for Engadget on the GPS dongle for the Asus Transformer Prime:
We did encounter a snag using it however, our tablet would randomly reboot every few minutes while the dongle was attached, though a sticker on the kit’s front implores users to update their slate before use. Our tablet is up to date, of course, but we wouldn’t be surprised to see a compatibility fix in the coming weeks. Despite matching our Prime’s color profile, the dongle is a little on the ugly side, facing its screws towards the user, rather than hiding them on the tablet’s back. Hiccups and eyesores aside, the attachment works, plain and simple. It isn’t as elegant of a solution as we might as hoped, but at least it’s free.
Yeah, at least it’s free. What’s not to like?
