<p>Spouse has just acquired a new IPad and has a birthday in a couple of days. Looking for suggestions for accessories that IPad users have found that they enjoy using with this new gadget! It came with a case…so no recs for a case. Thanks!</p>
<p>Absolutely love the Logitech slim cover. It uses a magnet to hold the keyboard on the ipad and when you use it as a cover it uses the magnets just like an Apple cover does to put the ipad to sleep. The keypad works well and makes a nice stand, too. I litte pricey but I have found it worth it for the uses I make of the iPad for work.</p>
<p>I didn’t buy an apple cover, I bought a case that protects both sides and converts to a stand.
There are a couple keyboard cases I have been looking at,but so far nothing is perfect because I don’t want battery drain or a lot of weight. Some things on kick starter though.

<p>I’m currently thinking of getting AirPlay speakers and maybe a stylus pen for art applications.

<p>But until he knows how he is going to use it, the best accessory is probably just a iTunes credits to buy apps.</p>
<p>Forgot- I did buy an iPad bag.

<p>I’d recommend the Apple bluetooth keyboard.</p>
<p>ITunes gift cards.</p>
<p>My setup is a Zagg invisible shield, an Apple wireless keyboard and something called WingStand. The Zagg shield not only protects the screen but it reduces glare so I can read without being annoyed by reflections. The WingStand is 2 clips that slide on the keyboard. You then drop the iPad in and it looks like a laptop. Cost is $15.</p>
<p>Note: If you get a Zagg or other screen cover, don’t get a leather cover because the oils from your fingers will leach dye from the leather into the Zagg cover. The marks will likely be on the edges but they’re not pretty. I would get a protector that’s installed because doing it yourself leaves bubbles, etc. Zagg has kiosks in malls, usually near an Apple Store.</p>
<p>I have ordered the IPad camera connection. I am looking forward to downloading my photos directly to the iPad rather than loading them onto the computer and sending them to the iPad via iTunes.</p>
<p>laketime, how interesting that you just posted that. I just came back from buying the camera connection for my iPad about 10 minutes ago. We’re going on vacation and plan to take a lot of pictures, so I wanted to back them up every night onto my iPad, in case the camera were lost or stolen. I think it’s a very handy little gizmo.</p>
<p>I think there was a groupon for that camera connection thing today. This isn’t the one I was thinking of, but might be interesting: [5-in-1</a> iPad Camera Connection Kit + 3-in-1 iPhone / iPad Charger with USB Data Cable from RM49](<a href=“http://www.groupon.my/deals/national-deal/next-biz/715948637]5-in-1”>http://www.groupon.my/deals/national-deal/next-biz/715948637)</p>
<p>iphoto on the iPad is excellent.</p>
<p>My D is at a science conference and took only her iPad and a stylus to take notes. She uses Evernote, I think, and it’s pretty cool…</p>
<p>I’d echo iTunes gift certificates. Purchasing aps is so, so much fun!</p>
<p>Kind of expensive…but really fantastic:

<p>A website called padgadget has a daily apps deal listing. An array of apps go on sale every week.</p>
<p>Hayden, I am up at our lake home now without my laptop. I had to give DS the memory card and have him email me my photos, so glad I have an easier way to see my photos now!</p>
<p>laketime, our family party is on Saturday, not today, so I spent today playing with my gadget. Very, very cool, and much easier than I expected. </p>
<p>I still can’t figure out how to move photos from my laptop to my iPad, though. I assume there’s an app for that somehow?</p>
<p>I am looking to get a new iPad case, and I recently discovered Domeo Products. I found their website, domeoproducts.com, and it looks like they have some great cases. I was wondering if you have heard of them or what you think of them, anyone?</p>
<p>I just read about this online today and ordered one for my husband. It amplifies the sound from an iPad.</p>
<p>[The</a> Amplifiear – Sound Amplifier for your iPad](<a href=“http://theamplifiear.com/]The”>http://theamplifiear.com/)</p>
<p>I like that amplifier. What is the cost?</p>
<p>All things computer related, I look to the worm for advice. Since I often take notes, I bought Pages from Apple for documents. Well worth $10. I agree that a gift card so one can chose downloads would be good. </p>
<p>Off topic, but the worm’s Hanukkah gift is new iPhone 5. He really likes the docking station he had for old phone, so I went to Apple store to buy a converter–$40!!!</p>
