Bought the Apple Lightning to 30-pin Adapter from [Apple Online Store (Singapore)](https://www.apple.com/sg/store) for **S$42**. Bought it on Monday, 8th October 2012 and got it within the same week on Friday, 12th October 2012.

I don’t think it is out in retail stores yet, probably in a week or two, but I expect it to be out of stock the moment it is available in stores, like what happen to the [Apple Lightning to USB Cable](https://lesterchan.net/blog/2012/09/27/apple-lightning-to-usb-cable/).

I have no idea why this adapter cost S$42 while the cable cost only S$28.
