    The ipad camera connection kit may work if you are willing to try. I kinda doubt though that you could browse the files of the garmin through it..

    The Garmin iPhone ANT adapter could be used if the Garmin Edge 500 supported ANT (It doesn't!!).... (see post (iPhone & ForeRunner) on DCRainmaker here) ... so maybe using this App and method, with the iPad camera connection that AstraMonti mentions, might work ...

    There might be an issue with the power.

    https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?t=8581

    If the iPad's jailbroken there might be a way around it.

    Does anyone know whether a powered hub would be any help? (I don't have the hardware to check…)
