Here's another cool item just £39.95
Griffin PowerDock Dual - Apple Devices

I want a Dual Y-male to two female connector for iPad and iPhone. I use HD Radio and want to charge at random times while listening to the radio. Do you feel a Y-dock connector would benefit Apple users?

Well it's difficult to say as its each to their own really, also I can't really find the adapter your talking about with a quick search but here's a few things to consider. I only use genuine iPad chargers because I've noticed the copies and different variations of the original do not charge as well and have difficulties during the sync stages. You do have a few options though. Personally I would buy a powered USB hub, this can just be plugged in to the power and does not need to be plugged into a pc to get a USB slot for charging your iPad etc, which is useful if you just want to charge and not sync. I did not find your cable but have found another in the pic below, but I also have found a 3.5mm jack to USB converter on eBay for around £2? Not sure if these are any use to you? I hope I have helped with your question a little further, again I'm not sure of the cable you need or your setup so I've shown a few alternatives.

Another great product.

iPad scanner

Geekalert website blurb:
The iPad may be a tablet computer, but that doesn’t mean it can’t have all of the same peripherals as your PC. The DOCS2GO Scanner for iPad is a handy scanner to use with Apple’s tablet, yet again making this tablet a powerful tool.

This sleek portable scanner for documents, photos and more is just what you need. No one needs an old fashioned PC for anything anymore. Not even for scanning. Just dock your iPad in the standard 30-pin connector, feed your documents through the scanner and they’ll instantly appear on the iPad’s screen.

Now that is amazingly simple. Your tablet just got some actual work done. It’s powered by your iPad’s 10W power adaptor. Just £149.99 ($237/€178) from Firebox.

As always do shop around the models below are the iconvert and the docs2go scanners.
