How to Cool a Hotspot?

If u own a 308, most likely u also have a 3G smartphone (or more) with Wi-Fi and...

Probably u might have already been using it as a Wi-Fi hotspot for connecting ur Wi-Fi enabled devices to the Internet. If u haven't done so for not knowing ur smartphone capability take a look HERE, no one is peeping, hee....heeeee

There is one problem though. The hotspot can be extremely hot. The heat generated can damage ur precious device during extended use. But don't worry and u don't have to place it in refrigerated glovebox or somewhere out of ur sight. U can make it freezing cold and at the same time u may place it at a strategic location on ur 308 dashboard for normal use too, such as for gps navigation.....

All u need is a smartphone holder that can be fixed onto ur middle aircond vent....
...which u can buy @pasarmalam for +-RM10.00, u may also need an in-car charger because when u turn on the smartphone as a Hotspot and worst still u turn on the gps navigation at the same time, the bugger eats up lots of battery charge, just like ur 308T's do, hu huu..

Now u can have a cool hotspot in ur 308 to make ur passangers or urselves [if u r x drivin' la] enjoy the long trip with iPod Touch, iPad or any other tablets that do not have 3G.If ur rear pasengers are addicted to podcasts they can download and play their favorites on iDevice which can be attached on the back of the front seat...
... and of course I like watching IRC too whenever I'm in the backseat....
So, if u wanna buy an iPhone... think again because u can buy much lower-cost iPod Touch or even an iPad [or BOTH, he heeee] at a fraction of the price, and u do not have to get rid of your old faithful 3G SmartPhones.
