my poker 2 is in the mail, and i plan on using it with the ipad air.
From my research, the camera kits used to put out 100mw ( 100 something of power, can't remember it exactly ) but IOS software limited it down to 20whatevers.
if you plug it in and get a "device requires too much power"
there are 2 solutions
1. Chain in a powered USB hub, simply put the power gives the ipad hub more power to use the device
2. Use an UNPOWERED hub with at least 5 ports. reason being, the ipad can see that htere are now 5 ports, and will supply 100whatevers of power to the hub ( via software ) and your plug in item should then work. (though depending on the power draw of the poker 2, if you plug anything else along with it it may not work )
Not the prettyest solution, but it should work. I'm currently using my QFR with my ipad with no problems or need for a usb hub, but poker 2 probably won't go that smoothly. My poker looks to come in late this week if i'm lucky ( left hong kong today )
Though from what I understand, it looks like you'll be needing a hub to use a poker. I've already made a 12" sleeved cable for my QFR to use with my ipad, so I'll probably find a compact hub and somehow clean it up a bit where it does not look like I have a mess of cables attached to the ipad. My poker will exclusively be used for my ipad, and its a bit more portable than my QFR and a 60% is perfect because IOS won't recognize the 'insert, home, page up/down, or end buttons )
