iPad was there a fix for the camera connection?

Can someone explain to me why these seemingly unrelated functions (PDF exploit and camera kit) are actually related as cause-and-effect? I find this to be difficult to understand.
Also, does this bug exists entirely due to jailbreakme? Or does this bug occur only when another condition is needed(such as another Cydia app?

It has to do with the whole jailbreaking process, kernel patching, and tons of coding. Not a simple process at all.
When i run the EADemo sample code from the WWDC 2010 - Session 201 - Developing Applications that work with iPhone OS Accessories, it does list the "Apple Camera Connector" as an available accessory although it doesn't list any available protocols...
Anybody has deeper knowledge of the accessory programing on iOS?
Do yourself a favor and go read Post #13? If you can't even read then don't bother 'trying' to help.
Where in post 13 does it say it's released? It says "tomorrow" which obviously didn't happen. So stop being a smart butt. TC25 was the only one who could actually comprehend what was going on in this thread.
This is hilarious. Which of the following quotes from comex, which is the entire content of Post #13, indicates a fix is available?
Hints:
is available - Present tense
will be available - Future tense
comex - Update tomorrow will fix an issue with installing some packages and the issue with the Camera Connection Kit.
comex - The update will be available in Cydia if you are already jailbroken.

And you accuse me of not being able to read? Next time, have someone older help you read the more complicated posts.
I agree. It will be available - future tense but it will be available if you are already jailbroken. Since my iPad is already JB then it's available in cydia. That is why I am asking what's the name of the package or repo.
Nobody knows the name of the package or repo since it hasn't been released yet. Once it is released, the name of the update will be posted in this thread or another one in this forum.
Is it going to be rolled out as a Cydia package only or is it going to be rolled out also as a second version of JBme website, assuming it is true that the glitch occurred during the actual exploit process?
Yes, i know it's not out now. I'm just trying to explain why i asked such questions and that TC25/~Ks383~ doesn't have to be a butthole.
Apple's Camera Connection Kit is a set of two connectors for the iPad, a USB connector and an SD Card reader connector. They both use the dock connector to plug into the iPad.
According to Comex, if you are already jailbroken using jailbreakme then you can use the Cydia package to fix the CCK issue. But if not jailbroken, he will correct the issue with a new jailbreakme version. So far, he hasn't release anything yet. Be patient and follow his tweets for info.
This entire exchange was caused by you and your failure to understand the written word and when people point this out and explain it, you begin name calling. I did not call you a name because it violates MR rules. I expect an apology.
If you think you deserve an apology then i should get one first. This entire exchange was caused by you and your failure to understand why i asked such question. "It will be available in Cydia IF you are jailbreak". I took it as if i am jailbroken then it's available in Cydia and that's why i am asking. I did a duplicate post (which was bad according to you) because i don't see anyone posting the package name or repo which i thought it available if my ipad is JB.
Why does everybody get so burthurt on this forum. Cry about it, move on, and stick to the topic. If you have issues with someone, message them. God, I really wish I was a mod on here sometimes.
You took it wrong, and in a way almost no else did, then never explained yourself. Now you blame me and others, as if we should have understood your unusual interpretation of comex's clear tweets.
For future reference, just as was done in the past with problems caused by a new jb, comex;
1. Fixes the jailbreak code for new jailbreakers.
2. Creates a patch for those already jailbroken.
Next time, I will ignore posts like yours and leave it up to others to reply.
You and I both - I totally understand what you mean though - I personally think that people should take those types of comments to PM, but I think those people enjoy the idea of having their 'opinions' viewed by all in hopes that they get the moment to prove their opinion correct...etc. I think it's an ego thing.
But nonetheless - Im sure you would make a great mod.Just bought a connection kit assuming comex will indeed release a patch for it within a reasonable amount of time.
Anyone who used it with the iPad 1 or some other iOS device have any advice for any possible non-obvious uses? Not sure what it could be, just curious.. maybe the USB port works with something weird.
