If it's charging from your computer/USB port, the time to fully charge may take a little while longer.
Sure they do...but as you point out, the charge is quite slow (and all USB ports are not created equal). If the iPad's screen is on it won't show it charging at all. However if you leave it plugged in for a while, say overnight, the iPad will indeed charge (been there done that ).If it's charging from your computer/USB port, the time to fully charge may take a little while longer.
Computer USB ports don't have enough power to actually charge an iPad. They will maintain the level of charge but they will only increase the charge level infintesimally slowly.
