I use each of these adapters separately with my iPad 3 (USB keyboard with the CCK). Does anyone know of an adapter that would allow use of both simultaneously? I want to use my USB keyboard while outputting the iPad screen to a VGA monitor at the same time.

Nope, can't be done. If you want to do an HDMI screen, it's possible, because Apple's HDMI kit has a 30pin pass through, but the VGA one doesn't.
 
I've read about that pass-through capability, but I assumed it just passed through the charging pins, not all of the functionality of the entire 30-pin dock.
