Went to the Apple shop today, planning to buy the official Apple case,
but they didn't have any.

What I did buy was this:

Not cheap. In fact, bloody expensive, really at 50 quid.

However...

Quality is superb and it smells lovely - nothing like the smell of
decent leather.

The 3 position slope works brilliantly.

It looks good / professional and will definitely do a good job of
protecting my iPad.

Recommended, if you can justify the cost.

Also bought the camera connection kit - will play with that over the
weekend by plugging in every USB device I can find to see what happens.

I've got one of these arriving tomorrow (hopefully):

I'll post my thoughts when I get it.

I have one - I got it with my iPad. It is a great thing to have,
although I have only used it with my camera so far, but it does work
well with that (currently a Canon EOS 20D, just upgraded for a 40D).

You plug the USB in, it shows you the pictures on the camera, you can
import all or just tap on the pictures you want (where they get a mark
on them) then press import selected.

The only downside is unlike iPhoto, it doesn't ignore the ones you had
already imported.

I got it.

I love it.

Stylish, isn't a dust magnet, stand works well, all ports/switches
accessible.
