iPad Supports USB Audio Interfaces Via Camera Accessory Kit?

The Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit may support audio interfaces that are compatible with the USB Audio Class, according to a new report by Create Digital Music.

Score one for standards. According to second-hand sources and a post to a public mailing list, the upcoming Apple iPad accessory adapter for cameras, the iPad Camera Connection Kit, will support audio interfaces that are compatible with the USB Audio Class. I don’t have official confirmation from Apple, and the adapter itself appears not to be shipping until later this month, so file this as “likely, but unconfirmed.” But it’s one to watch, and comes as a surprise to me. (Generally, camera accessory kits aren’t a way of providing audio expansion.)
