I'm not 100% sure, but this seems ot do the same thing:  
https://cloakvpn.com. There are Mac and Windows versions. They do seem to be 
a different company from the one that does the Mac/iOS version of Cloak.

 Hi All
 
 For those that like picking up some little gems of software. Have a look at 
 the following site.
 The good thing with this one, is you get to look at a list of apps and choose 
 10 of the ones that may interest you.
 I went through the list and owned a few, so made a bundle with the ones I 
 might be interested in :o)
 
 Just thought I'd share it for those who may like it.
 Worth a look - https://www.pickabundle.com
 
 Enjoy
 
 Kind regards

 That looks like a useful site.
 
 Bear in mind that your expectations and Australian experiences will NOT stand 
 you in good stead, be prepared for many differences. We have it pretty good 
 here.
 
 For example, in countries such as France and Germany, they have restrictions 
 on who can buy a Sim card. I was fortunate enough to have a national be able 
 to buy one for me.
 
 As you cross country borders, which you may do several times a day, you will 
 be on roaming rates for your sim.
 
 I used Orange.fr   Their data, and I suspect all other providers, is charged 
 on a time basis, not only volume. And there is a flag fall. So each time the 
 iPhone checks the time, or checks for emails etc etc, there is a charge. My 
 first night cost me €35, and that was in France, with a French sim, and that 
 was me not using the iPhone at all.
 
 The solution for most travellers it seems is to use the plentiful free wifi 
 spots. Many accommodation places have free wifi, or you buy it in time 
 blocks. Also Geneva has a town wide free wifi. You might be going there, but 
 its an example of what is around. Often the free wifi is not very good, but 
 it's better than nothing.
 
 Enjoy your travels, like I said above, we have it pretty good here - in many 
 ways

whatsapp for ipad

2013-04-01 Thread Merv Bond
Has anyone used WhatsApp for iPad.
 From a review of three websites dealing with the application I gather 
there could be problems in installing the app. And when installed what 
are the gains?
Opinions on the app appreciated.
