The lack of a USB port on the device will soon cease to be a strong drawback: it can be filled with the i-FlashDrive device from PhotoFast. The cost of the device is $100-200 depending on the volume. There is a free application for the gadget for iPad, iPod or iPhone, said Alexander Levy.

Some people are willing to put up with the lack of a USB port on the iPad, some consider it a feature, some consider it a disadvantage. PhotoFast decided to compensate for this hardware gap with its i-FlashDrive device.

The Apple store, of course, has all kinds of kits for transporting photos and videos. But the Taiwanese novelty has several trump cards up its sleeve. I-FlashDrive is indeed a flash drive with a capacity of 8, 16 or 32 GB. On one side there is a connector for connecting to Apple devices, and on the other there is a familiar USB connector.

There is a special free application for the gadget in the App Store, which allows you to carry out the desired exchange operations with an iPad, iPod or iPhone. You can also back up your contacts.

i-FlashDrive will appear on the market in July at a price of $100-200 depending on volume. Ironically, one of the iPad's competitors, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, also lacks a USB port, unlike the 7-inch version.

The solution is simple - a branded adapter for $20. The device connects to the 30-pin connector of the tablet, allowing you to connect almost any USB device to the tablet. Personally, I am very impressed by the ability to connect a computer mouse in this way.

You can place an order for the adapter on the company's website samsung.com.

USB port is a delicate matter
