Peter,

There are a number of in-flight = charging solutions=20 in the form of external backup batteries you can plug the USB = charging cord=20 into if your iPad gets low. In fact, to get FAA approval to use = iPads in=20 airliners, it was a requirement that we carry one. Just do a = search in=20 eBay and you'll find plenty to choose from. These can also be used = for=20 cell phones, cameras or anything else that uses a USB plug to = charge, so=20 they come in pretty handy.
