Hi TP - that looks like an interesting device! Already looking at some comments on Amazon and other places - do I need one? Probably not but I'm a gadget guy so may consider a purchase - thanks for the link and description! Dave :)

I only know about it because I also like my gadgets, so I keep an eye on the cooler toys like this. The only reason I don't have it is because I can't come up with a practical use (for myself) that justifies the cost.

OT: There is supposed to be a new version of the Parrot AR.Drone at CES, with an HD camera. I want this soooo bad my bank account site refuses to open when I'm reading articles about this totally cool but use limited toy. :D

Really interesting thread here with lots of info, thank you!

Yes, but where is the OP?

The camera adapter allows you to read the memory card in the camera, what would prevent you from loading files on to the camera card?

The fact that the iPad wouldn't be able to read and download the files. The camera connection kit is only intended for transferring photos from your camera to the iPad.
BTW, this thread is a year old and it's highly unlikely that the OP will see your post, since he only posted once.

yes they can once you connect the iPad will find it and ask where you want to download. Freddie

It only reads photos and videos in the exact format a modern digital camera uses. It won't even read image files if they do not have the right folder and file naming conventions.

You can connect it via the included USB cable which attaches to the iPad's 30 pin dock connector. Although if you are looking at dragging and dropping files you're out if luck. iTunes is used to manage the content on iDevices.
Besides, take a look at the steps of following page, which will tells you the way to transfer files from computer to iPad.

Hope they will help.

The CCK works fine for photos. But somehow the videos cannot be read on my iPad2, even though they look fine on the Mac.
