ZAGG ZAGGfolio for Apple iPad 2
In my quest to get my iPad 2 to function as a laptop I tested the ZaGGfolio iPad 2 Case with Bluetooth Keyboard and I can certainly say that the experience was certainly a lot better than typing onscreen.

It imitates a full sized keyboard and although I have read complains about it being too compact I certainly have not had any issues with the size. The keyboard connects via Bluetooth and it takes all of 5 seconds to set up. The case is perfectly sized...

The included case serves a dual purpose of protecting the keyboard when not in use and as a stand for the iPad. You can be sure that the cases will properly...
