The iPad 2 is a good laptop replacement especially if you travel a lot like I do. The one thing missing obviously is a good keyboard since the touch screen keyboard is not the best and is prone to mistakes. A good solution for a keyboard for the iPad is the one offered by Logitech. The real computer keyboard feeling that you get on almost full sized keys makes efficiency a breeze. 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 support the iPad both in vertical and horizontal positions and the angle is ideal for viewing the screen.
Although the keyboard is slightly heavy it is still light enough to take along with you when you travel. The Logitech keyboard for iPad connects easily to the iPad Bluetooth and once you pair them there is no need to pair them again.
The Pros:
- Although the keyboard is not the same height as a full height keyboard the experience comes really close.
- The Logitech Keyboard for iPad uses 4 AAA batteries which to me is better than having to charge yet another device. The keyboard gives good battery life.
- Love the case/stand dual purpose functions and the fact that you can use the case for horizontal as well as vertical viewing.
- Pairs easily with the iPad.
- On/off switch to save your batteries.
- Design and size makes it perfect for travel.
- Includes Fn keys for locking, volume control and media control.
- 3-year limited hardware warranty

The Cons:

- It is just a bit longer than the iPad.
- Slightly heavier than other iPad keyboards that I’ve used.
How I Rate The Logitech Tablet Keyboard For iPad
Yes there are a few things to complain about but all in all this is an almost perfect product. Its slim design and ease of carriage when I travel fits the bill for me an aside from the fact it won’t remember multiple pairings there is very little to complain about in a product that gets the job done.
