So realistically, you have two choices.  Be a purist and wait for the actual iPad to ship so you can truly test your applications, or go with it because … Read entire article »

News wires are buzzing today with the fact that Apple will not be shipping some key accessories for the iPad on April 3.  Rather, they will follow up the initial shipments and iPad units to the stores with a trickle of products from April 4th through the end of May, by some reports. What accessories you might ask?  Well, some of them are frivilous like the iPad Soft Pad Case and some video connectors.  Others are pretty integral, like the 10w iPad Power Adapter and the Keyboard Dock…and they are still is waiting on a shipping date. Apple has no official word, but they are dolling out the iPads at a steady rate.   The story was first reported by the Electronista, then followed up in-suit by other media outlets.
