I think the AppleTV is probably the ultimate accessory for the iPad. Sharing your screen, photos and videos all on the big TV screen is fantastic. especially now at 1080p. Not quite what you're after I guess, but just thought I'd throw it out there.

Added a whole bunch of new cases and items for the 3. Enjoy shopping!

Tired. Must sleep now. 7 hours until fedex shows up with my 3.

Don't worry, there are more companies I'll add. A lot more..

I can report the iPad 3 does NOT work with the Switcheasy Canvas for the iPad 2 (caused a crack....imagine that). It does however work with my Vaja Libretto (also for the iPad 2).
