There are passthru connectors for powering the iPad during all this - I'd do a little research before plonking down cash on the first thing Google turns up though. Some aren't so good by all accounts.

I must say I'm utterly shocked . . . SHOCKED! I tell you . . . that Zengel wasn't struck down by plague, his iPad explode and the pits of hell open wide upon jailbreaking his (his! finally!) device.

That said, we'll write to you in prison, fella .

It is just prison right? They commuted this offence down from a capital crime?

yes there are some adapters, and I even heard of successful use of audio interfaces while powering the iPad. This is more related to studio work where you generally have longer sessions than on a live gig. I want my iPads powered when I work, especially when the battery indicator is still unreliable in iOS 6.1.

Regarding burning in hell for jailbraking an iDevice: I am very pragmatic when it comes to performing live, probably like zengel. What works is good, what doesn't work is not good. Simple as that. I haven't jailbraked one of my four iPads yet, because I don't see the reason at the moment, but I won't hesitate a second it there is a need.

Edit: jailbroken is probably the correct past tense, not jailbraked.

Yeah, it's the adaptors that successfully power the iPad with audio interfaces that I'd recommend for the job.

i live in Paris...i don't mind of this stupid useless apple laws.
and phil999 is right. if apple did the job natively (or let other developpers do it) i never had to jailbrake my ipad...
now mywi does it and it work great with the lemur.

finished this post. thanks to all
