Lexar has just released its latest 24-in-1 memory card reader, and while there are plenty of USB card readers out there, this one might be a little more interesting for iPad owners. Turns out that it can be hooked up through the iPad’s Camera Connection Kit, allowing it to import photos directly to the iPad. Considering that the iPad is great for viewing pictures, if you’re taking a lot of photos on the move, this would be quite useful, though also need Apple’s Camera Connection Kit. If you decide to go for Lexar’s offering, you’ll need to shell out $29.99. Check out a video of it in action after the jump.

While not "invented" by Apple (the newton was arguably a PDA), the iPad has re-ignited the tablet format as it appeared at the right time, with the right hardware and apps. the first iPad was launched on April 2010. It was followed by the iPad 2 in March 2011 and a new iPad (gen 3) in 2012.

Lexar spun off from Cirrus Logic in 1996 and was eventually acquired by Micron Technology in 2006. The company then merged with Crucial Technology under the name Lexar Media, and also extended an agreement with Eastman Kodak Company to produce Kodak-branded flash memory products. Some of Lexar's products include SD cards, memory sticks, compact flash drives, card readers, key drives, and more.
