I know what I want for my birthday, flag day, or whatever holiday comes next. Santa baby, slip an iPad under the tree, for me. And if you do, please don’t leave out the combo that takes using my iPad from cool to perfect — the Kensington(Amazon link) Keyfolio Bluetooth keyboard and case.
An iPad With The The Kensington Keyfolio Is Officially A Netbook Killer
I’m officially kicking myself for opting for a netbook over iPad (aka the “netbook killer“). I foolishly thought, “Self, don’t let yourself be blinded by sexy allure — you need to type and type quickly, not haul keyboards and clutter around in your bag. It defeats the purpose. Stay focused.”
Well, the Kensington KeyFolio iPad keyboard and case combo solves that problem. (Dammit, lack of patience!) It keeps your iPad tucked into a hard case — no magnets, of course – and includes a slim keyboard with rubberized keys that won’t scratch the screen. It’s sleek, barely over a pound, and is only two inches thick all in all. Plus it’s certified by Apple so you know you’re getting a legitimately compatible product.
I’ve been known to start with great shoes and then worry about the dress. I am not afraid of ordering dessert first and building my dinner after the fact. So I’m thinking maybe if I order the KeyFolio iPad keyboard, an iPad will manifest and appear in my Christmas stocking? A girl can dream.
Don’t forget – should you want something simpler, (and less traditional … and more peculiar), there’s always the crafty pencil stand or plush iMaxi. Different strokes for different folks, I always say.
