What can I do with USB connector on iPad?

I’m getting the iPad’s Camera Connection Kit shipped from the US, and should arrive next week.

In the mean time, I am very excited about what it can do! I have read online that it already can:
1. hook up a USB keyboard – I’m very excited about this feature! Since I have purchased their original dock, it would be great to type quickly in the office!
