Also, a new $19 12W USB power adapter (which connects directly to the Lightning port) has also appeared for the 3rd and 4th generation iPads, bumping the previous version&#8217;s 10W &#8212; meaning your slate might get charged a bit quicker.<a href=\"http:\/\/debographic.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/apple-adapters-10-24-12-04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1070\" title=\"apple-adapters-10-24-12-04\" src=\"http:\/\/debographic.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/apple-adapters-10-24-12-04-e1351130684528.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"325\" height=\"211\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We noticed during the iPhone 5 launch that Apple had a\u00a0big caveatwith its Lightning to 30-pin adapter: no video or iPod out support.
