What type of USB device should it be? The master controller or the slave device? If it were a master, then it could have such things as cameras connected to it, but then the USB protocals wouldn't allow it to be connected to a computer, unless the computer had a slave controller in it. If it were a slave, then you would be able to connect it to a computer, but not to a camera. Unfortunately USB doesn't allow for any other type of device - it must be either a slave device or a master. So, if you are going to have a USB port, which type of device controller should it get? -- -Glennl Please note this e-mail address is a pit of spam, and most e-mail sent to this address are simply lost in the vast mess.

With USB 3.0 not due to be implemented in Intel chipsets until next year (2011), and Intel developing Light Peak, I think its probably a more prudent move for Apple to hold off a tad longer, and possibly go with a Light Peak interface for iPads requiring ultra high speed I/O bandwidth down the road. -- Harry

USB2 is plenty fast enough for toys like the iPad What the fanboiz don't want to admit is that apple deliberately chose to screw their customers by closing that thingy as much as possible. After all, their cargo cult members will defend every move of apple, no matter how much it will cost them down the road -- Modern man is the missing link between apes and human beings.

Actually, no, it does not You need an additional Connection Kit for that Just stop this outright lying, it just shows how desperate you fanboiz are >> What the fanboiz don't want to admit is that apple deliberately chose >> to screw their customers by closing that thingy as much as possible. > > quite the opposite, actually. Well, cargo cult members will never admit how much they like to be screwed >> After all, their cargo cult members will defend every move of apple, no >> matter how much it will cost them down the road > > no, they just correct idiotic bullshit.
