Now that you know when and where to get the iPad, you must be also shopping for accessories needed for your new toy. We have already covered most official Apple accessories available in the Online Store except for one, the Camera Connector Kit which is now available for pre-order too.

For just $29.99 you can get those two tiny connectors in the picture here and boy will you need them! In case you love photographing and you’re going to use your iPad to store some of your quickly taken photos then the iPad Camera Connection Kit will be a must have gadget.

We have already complained about the iPad actual lack of ports but that doesn’t mean people will stop buying it. Unlike the iPad, the HP Slate is said to come with various ports on board which will make it even easier for us to connect your beloved gadgets. But until the Slate actually hits stores, the iPad will get lots and lots of attention.

The iPad Camera Connection Kit, although available for pre-order now, will only ship at some point in late April. Don’t look so surprised though since most iPad accessories are going to arrive later than the tablet itself. That is certainly a little annoying but you can’t really do anything about it, can you?.

Should you actually want the iPad 3G instead of the Wi-Fi version then you’ll probably be able to buy it in about a month from now and have it delivered together with all the extra iPad-related items you’re ready to pay Apple to send to your door.

The Camera Connector Kit is actually made of two connectors one that lets you connect your camera or camcorder straight through a USB interface and one that lets you import photos straight from your camera’s SD card. All you have to do is simply insert any of these two connectors into the 30-pin port, connect the camera or memory card and your photos will be available to you immediately thanks to the Photos application which will help you take care of your most precious memories.

So are you ready to spend that extra $29.99?
