    @ Laurent: lol
    Yes, I am starting this program in Britain, unless I change holiday destination this summer.
    Thank you for all the info packed your site.
    For my own, I invested in quadlock support for my iPad 2 (http://www.myphonestore.fr/coque-protection-ipad-quadlock-noire.html) .At time, I am delighted. He turned to the horizontal or vertical. And simply unclipped. I had already bought the same device compatible iPhone for my bike. For my iPhone, I waterproof protection, but unfortunately, it does not exist (yet?) for iPad.

    1. Francis dit:

      I largely talked about the waterproof protection for iPad on this blog. See the menu Accessories.

  5. Charles dit:

    Thank you Francis, I missed.

  6. Jean-Pierre KING dit:

    Francis thank you for all his efforts.
    I confirm that the course of this training in Britain is for him a sacred duty; preferably Bertagne North, also!
    I already register on the waiting list.
