New Second Edition now in stock

The Digital RV by R.L. Charpentier breaks new ground as the first book specifically on how (and why) to outfit your Airstream with the latest electronic gadgets. The Digital RV is based on his popular series of articles published in Airstream Life but goes much further, explaining in clear, non-technical prose a wide range of fun technology applications that will have you saying, “I didn’t know I could do that!”

Ideal for beginners or folks just getting started with technology, the book includes discussions of digital TV, how to replace your CD collection with MP3 files, tips on mobile communications (including cell phones, blogging, and online chat), choosing a GPS, satellite radio, using WiFi, digital photography and video. All of the tips are sensitive to the needs of RV owners.

The author offers options and advice so the reader can decide what will work best, covering Mac and Windows, XM and Sirius satellite radio, different types of mobile Internet connections, digital cameras, GPS, etc. The book is half about what you can do, and half shopping guide for someone who wants advice on what to buy.

Probably the best thing about The Digital RV is that the book is easy to understand. It reads well because the author takes the time to explains the pros and cons, options, and opportunities. It’s a great book for beginners.
