PC Magazine: Use wireless peripherals with Apple’s MacBook Air

“Don’t let the MacBook Air’s limited wired connectivity cross it off your list—it can connect to plenty of wireless devices that will conserve its one USB port,” P.J. Jacobowitz reports for PC Magazine.

“Only one USB port and no Ethernet jack on the Apple MacBook Air!? Chillax. Don’t let this be a deal-breaker when it comes to purchasing the world’s thinnest notebook. This ultraportable laptop includes two other connectivity options—namely Bluetooth 2.1 and Draft-n Wi-Fi—for all your toys. Here are some Mac-friendly devices that the Air can talk to wirelessly. We’ll also show you how to connect wirelessly to some devices you may already own, so you can save the Air’s sole USB port for a rainy day,” Jacobowitz reports.

Jacobowitz covers:
• Linksys Wireless-N Gigabit Router
• Maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus
• Apple OS X 10.5 “Leopard” (comes installed on the MacBook Air)
• Eye-Fi Card
• HP Photosmart D7460
• iSkin Cerulean RX & TX Combo
