Zagg – The Adventures of ChipheadMike

New Zagg Keyboard for the iPad

Just got the new ZaggKeys Pro Plus keyboard/case for my iPad 3rd generation today.

The first test of any new keyboard is for me to write a new blog post about it.

This is a new type of case. The iPad is held in place when closed by magnets and their is no real “case” per se. The iPad and the keyboard together are the case. What this means is that I'll have to buy a Gelaskin for the iPad and possibly something for the back of the keyboard piece.

The backlit keys are a plus.

Typing feels really good as well. I'm liking it.

My New ZaggFolio Case for iPad2

This is the first article that I have written with my new iPad 2 case and my first impressions are…

…wow.

I like the sleek design of the Zagg Folio case.

A piece of paper that comes with it describes that I may only need to charge my keyboard “a few times a year.” Say what?

This thing is awsome and I can easily see why I may end up using the iPad for writing much more than my iMac.

The keyboard is built right into the case and while these types of things have been out for a while now, it was Harry McCracken’s article in Technologizer that tipped the scales towards Zagg for me.

I’ve had this thing for only an hour and I have already learned a couple of new things about Blogsy.

A case like this one isn’t for everyone with an iPad. It’s better suited towards those folks who plan to do a fair bit of writing with their iPad.

All the links you need about the case can be gotten from the Technologizer article that I linked to previously.
