Apple Ipad charging
I love the plethora of Mac fans who bemoan Microsoft for not sticking to standards; of course when Apple releases a product that doesn’t conform to standards its not such a big problem.
From the USB 2.0 specifications:
“High-power Hub Port (out) ICCPRT Section 7.2.1 500 mA“
From the Ipad requirements:
“PC with USB 2.0 port”
Of course, Apple wouldn’t be one to release a product which demands more than double the standard USB 2.0 power capacity and not properly tell customers about it would they?
