Hi Mike.. - hope that the cable works out for you, but I'm curious how secure the Torx nut & bolt are on back of the portion that attaches to the sides of the iPad - is the hold solid & sturdy? Also, I have a fairly well equipped basement workshop which includes a set of Torx screwdrivers (w/ the t25 mentioned in your link) - luckily most people don't walk around w/ this type of tool - Dave
