I play pokerist.com and it just kills my battery...When i had my ipad1 i would just swap and charge...But i listed it on ebay and didn't think it would sell but it did..Should i buy another ipad 2 or just deal with charging?
Or you could play near an outlet and leave it plugged in. A comfortable chair, desk or table, and a stand or book to prop it up at about 15 degrees makes for comfortable gaming.
The wire is so short....Looked at several walmarts,targets and best buy...no luck...I think a white to go whith my black one would be nice..got 2 leather smart covers cream and red and the red needs a home anyway.
Just purchase a USB extension cable - any Radio Shack or other similar store has them in stock. Several Forum members have done this to extend the charging cable.
