So you have learned by now that the useless toy "iPad" actually does not have USB ports (only has them when connected to the Connection Kit)? Why oh why did you claim otherwise just hours ago, against all supplied links? Was it your inbred utter stupidity, your belonging to the apple cargo cult, you being a brainless fanboi or was it a combination of all of those? -- Just out of curiosity does this actually mean something or have some of the few remaining bits of your brain just evaporated?

German newspaper "Bild". German weekly magazine "Der Stern" And they weren't the only ones Face it: Your filthy cargo cult company *censors* according to its own rules -- Support your local Search and Rescue unit -- get lost.

There are a series of pins on the iPad connector that go directly to a USB 2.0 chip (or circuitry on a larger chip that conforms to USB protocols). USB 2.0 IS implemented in the iPad, the only thing that is not on the iPad is a standard USB connector. For that you need an adaptor. I believe that this is a mistake on Apple's part and the device should have a dedicated, standard USB port on it, but it doesn't. If you had phrased your criticism that way, I would have agreed with you. But like most Apple haters, you just had to twist the truth to make it look like the iPad doesn't support USB AT ALL. And you Apple haters wonder why you're so disliked when you post to this NG. > Just stop this outright lying, it just shows how desperate you fanboiz are Look who's talking.
