Also, a power brick, which can be used with the USB cord to power the iPad direct from a wall outlet. This brick is also handy if your computer's USB port does not have enough power to charge the iPad. The iPad itself has it's own software already installed and is usually close to a full charge.

Some magazines have also started selling subscriptions of their online articles on the iPad to customers.
