Hm not really. Providing you're not using it when it's charging, the difference is negligible.
You can turn it off while it's plugged in by holding down the wake/sleep botton. But as stated before if the iPad is off or in sleep mode you really won't see noticeable if any difference in charging times. That is if we are talking about using a wall charger.
ah.. thanks (for the non-sarcastic responses). I did not know there wasn't any difference between charging while asleep/and off.
If your power button ever stops working (like mine did on my iPhone) you'll be glad it turns on when you plug it in! It's the only way I can restart my phone!
Ipad earlier used to show the charged %age and it was also not switching on automatically upon pluging in charger. I switched on my Ipad after a year and was surprised, so i tried to check on forums, i was thinking there might be a hardware deffect lolz!
