Long iPad cable advice sought - MacJeepster - 01-22-2011
I'd like to get a 4-foot or longer iPad to USB cable.
As we all know, some name-brand cables are wildly overpriced, but some no-brand cables are trash and won't carry enough current to charge the iPad (though they may be OK for an iPhone).
Has anyone had any good experiences with a particular long iPad cable?
Thanks in advance.

why not use the normal ipad cable with a USB extender cable?

FWIW, this thread got me thinking, and I searched for and found a 'dock extender' cable that mrs. cbelt3 can use to (hopefully) use her iPad with her iHome clock radio gizmo. We'll see how it works.. cheap experiment, and I can use it in my car for the iPod cable extender if need be.

I just bought the 3 meter Griffin cable from OWC which works well. I would have bought the one linked above instead, but it didn't show up when I was searching. Still doesn't, actually...
