How crappy is Apple’s new Lightning Adapter

So with the iPhone 5 Apple updated and downgraded it’s connector to the new lightning connector. The good news is it is smaller, and will work in either direction. The bad news is it is the same speed as the old adapter, sends less data, so many old accessories won’t work, and for those that do it requires an adapter at $28 for a direct or $39 for a cable.

Youch! Honestly i would rather have had the old adapter still so all my old devices would work. Especially since Apple said they won’t make docks for the iPhone 5, and i prefer my iPhone and iPods in docks!
