It appears that the VGA adapter will not permit simultaneous charging of the iPad, because both use the Dock port. Any solution for this?
Not that we’re aware of. There are some products that provide charging while passing through other Dock connectors; for example, the Scoche PassPort converts 12V charging to newer iPods 5V-only requirement while passing through all other signals. In theory, one could design a pass-through Dock connector that provides power while enabling Apple’s VGA adapter, but no such products have been announced yet.
