This would certainly sustain 2A supply (and more though not needed).
if a hub was made which could provide more then 0.5amps it would not be compliant to the standard and would be illegal many places
as malfunctioning usb devices which by accident would draw more then they were made to could catch fire

Isn't it that the current is drawn by the device that is attached to a port? So, why would the computer's USB port be drawing the current then? It's the iPad that will draw the current from the ports, isn't it?
