    In my previous thread I asked for suggestions for a Auto/Air adapter and was reminded about the Power Inverter. Which prompts my next question.

    I am going to be doing alot of heavy flying and need something that is tried and true and will work flawlessly. I know that there are alot of hard core travelers on here.

    Which Auto/Air Inverter do you use ?

    Also, I know the T61p 14.1 screen needs a minimum of 90 watts to operate so I need something that will not only charge but can be used while charging.

    Thanks in advance !

    I use the iGo Everywhere 130. I love it and have been able to get rid of every friggin' power brick and cord for all the devices I travel with (phone, Palm T/X, T61p, etc.). In fact, when I got the T61p, I bought a $10 tip to work with the T61p instead of having to buy a second power supply. The 130 comes with AC/Auto/Air. The air worked great on the 5-6 trips from midwest to Hawaii last year. The flight was 10 hours and I could run my Compaq Presario the entire flight via the Air poser connector. In fact, I ran my laptop and an Archos Video player at the same time!!!

    The iGo stuff may seem expensive at first, but it cut down the wait and all the secondary power bricks I was buying so I could have one at home and one in my laptop case.
