iPad Camera Connection Kit Shipping in Late April


Apple's iPad Camera Connection Kit, which offers two adapters to allow users to transfer digital photos directly to their iPad via either USB or SD card, is now listed as shipping in late April.

The kit had been announced by Apple as part of the iPad launch in late January, but did not come available for pre-order earlier this month alongside other iPad accessories. The reason for the delay in making the kit available for order is unknown.

Other iPad accessories are showing a variety of shipping dates for new orders, with the standard dock and VGA adapter scheduled for April 3rd availability and the iPad case shipping in "mid April". The iPad keyboard dock is currently showing "late April" availability, while the power adapter is not shipping until May.

Power adapter is not shipping until May? Does that mean you're stuck with charging through your computer ala iPods? Lame_ass!

These accessories can't be that difficult to manufacture and shouldn't need parts that are scarce, so it seems Apple put less thought/effort into ramping up their production.

I wonder if my old ipod dock connector to USB is the exact same thing and will also work with the iPad:

I want one. Maybe it'll ship the same time as my 3g. I like the idea of uploading RAW filed while travelling. I doubt there'll be any editing available though.

That's not what it means. All iPads will ship with power adapters, just like all iPods, iPhones, iMacs, and just about every electronic product from any manufacturer on Earth. This is simply an extra power adapter.

By the time you add all these clunky accessories, it will cost as much as a real computer.

iPods haven't shipped with a power adapter for a long time.
