Making iPads useful
One of the biggest challenges to all tablet computing is the lack of effective typing, so consumers are buying separate Bluetooth keyboards and carrying them around alongside their iPads to make it an effective tool.
Instead of carrying around extra accouterments, combine an iPad2 cover with an iPad2 stand and a built in keyboard and you have one multi-purpose tool (which is a concept that should resonate with iPad users, right?).
It cradles an iPad2 horizontally or vertically, charges over USB (read: no batteries), and claims to be made with aircraft-grade aluminum to allow for protection of your precious iPad2.
The Keyboard Case will set you back $100, but seems worth it to not have to carry around multiple tools to perform one function. Click here to visit the Logitech keyboard case website- we are not affiliated with them in any way.
Bonus tip
If you haven’t already put your iPad 2 to use, we encourage you to brand your device and your Keyboard Case with custom stickers with your brokerage, brand or something eye catching (please no Glamour Shots of you or boring logos, if you’re carrying an iPad 2, that merits some modern branding- put a “Realtor on duty” sticker or “I’m a Realtor, I realtate” on your devices or something clever).
Your local printer who creates your print marketing can likely create custom stickers for you and your team.

um so I was at the apple store today and discuss this "case" with them.
They chuckled HEARTILY. They said why would you do that? You are basically creating a mac book air that does LESS than the Mac Book.
I mean they chuckled HEARTILY.
