First world problem + OCD iPad Owner = Pathetic Hilarity

Presumably you won't be using it while driving. (?) We keep ours in the passenger side slot of the center console (bucket seats), which kind of looks like a magazine holder. That way the passenger has easy access to it. When the vehicle is stopped, it's easy enough for the driver to reach over and grab it.

We use a mobile hotspot, since we can take it into a hotel, park, etc., and the iPad keeps connected. The 115 V outlet is perfect for recharging the hotspot and the iPad or the lady's MacBook Air or Toshiba.

Our iPad is our mobile hotspot - we buy 2 or 4 gigs of data when we do a road trip and it works pretty good (Verizon). Currently the tablet slips in between the seat and the console and the cell signal still gets to it fine. Something to consider for our next car though - a slot sounds perfect so long as you can plug it in at the same time. On our older third generation iPad, running the hotspot runs the battery hard.

On our '09 Grand Caravan, the 115 outlet isn't too convenient - but it doesn't work anyway.
