There is about to be a disproportionate amount of first time iPad buyers (like myself). What type of accessories would you recommend that we should be looking at and thinking about? For those who have had an iPad over the past year, which accessories have you used the most and which ones are more niche or gimmicky. Discuss why certain accessories have been useful and what situations you have used them in.
here are a few accessories that I can think of to get the creative juices flowing and my brief opinion (if I am wrong please correct me!)
case/smart cover- how needed is this really? I usually like keeping my iphone naked
dock- what is the real pupose of this? a stand? a way to charge while upright? a stand while using a bluetooth keyboard?
keyboard dock- obviously this would come in handy for lots of typing
bluetooth keyboard- could be used with a dock to replace the above item
car charger- maybe not because of 10+ hrs battery life, but for those REALLY long car rides...
hdmi cable- could be really useful for teaching or presentations
usb/sd card adapters- for photographers to put pictures directly on the iPad
what else? What accessories do we really need?
