This is not possible for several reasons. Firstly, the majority of thumb drives will not work with the iPad because it has a very limited 10 mA current capability and this is insufficient to power most thumb drives.Quote:

OK - well that was all the bad news - now for the good news!! From the iPad's native Notes app you can email your notes from the iPad to the PC - much easier (in my opinion) than using a thumb drive. Or you could copy and paste them into a third party app, such as Apple's Pages app, and then format them as a .doc Office compatible document ready for transfer to your PC for further processing by Microsoft Word or another compatible program.

Thank you very much Mr. Spracklin. I think typing notes on my iPad notes and emailing it to my work pc will work just fine.
