TidBITS#1025/26-Apr-2010
========================
  Issue link: <http://db.tidbits.com/issue/1025>

  It may cost only $29, but Apple's new iPad Camera Connection Kit
  features heavily this week, with Glenn Fleishman reviewing it for
  its primary purpose (transferring photos from your camera to your
  iPad) and also discovering that it works for audio headsets as well.
  And then Jeff Carlson found that you can use it to expand your
  iPad's media storage capacity, too! On the Mac side of the fence,
  Glenn covers Orbicule's Undercover theft-recovery software and Joe
  Kissell contributes an introduction to file encryption in Mac OS X.
  We also run down Apple's stellar second quarter financial results
  and congratulate the four (!) TidBITS staffers included in the 2010
  MacTech 25 list of most influential people in the Macintosh
  technical community. Notable software releases this week include
  Nisus Writer Express 3.3.2 and Nisus Writer Pro 1.4.1, HoudahGeo
  2.5, Default Folder X 4.3.7, and PageSender 4.6.
