Solar Keyboard Folio and Ultrathin Keyboard Cover Help You Make the Most of the iPad Experience
Logitech (SIX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI) today introduced two new keyboard accessories for the New iPad and iPad 2. The Logitech? Solar Keyboard Folio and Logitech? Ultrathin Keyboard Cover move beyond traditional accessories, providing smart design and better protection, as well as practicality and functionality.
“This next generation iPad and its apps are designed to give you more control and creativity, whether editing photos and movies, making music or writing a novel,” said Alexis Richard, director of product marketing at Logitech. “To complement this, the new Logitech keyboard cases — with their sleek, smart designs and extended keyboard battery life — provide a convenient way for you to enjoy, protect and do more with your iPad.”
These new keyboard cases for iPad leverage Logitech’s extensive heritage of high quality, reliability and sleek design, which helped make the company a global leader in keyboards.
Logitech Solar Keyboard Folio
One of the thinnest folios available on the market, the Logitech Solar Keyboard Folio provides stylish front and back protection for your iPad, complete with a built-in Bluetooth? keyboard that’s powered by light. Whether in low light or lamp light, indoors or outdoors, the keyboard uses built-in solar panels to charge. The battery lasts for up to two years, even in complete darkness (1). And with its ultra-slim design, the folio adds minimal bulk to your tablet.
Whether you want to type an email or watch a video, the folio has two stand positions, holding your iPad at the optimal angle so you don’t have to. Place your iPad in the first position and you can enjoy the full keyboard when you’re typing. Place your iPad in the second position and the first keyboard row acts as your media playback and volume controls.
Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover
The perfect partner for your iPad, the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover protects your screen with a slim, sleek aluminum cover and features a built-in keyboard that pairs through Bluetooth. Similar to a Smart Cover, the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover attaches quickly and securely to your iPad with a magnetic clip. Whether you’re typing emails or watching movies, the built-in stand holds your iPad at the best angle. With a 6-month battery life (1), you can spend less time worrying and more time typing. The ultra-slim keyboard cover also has an instant On/Off feature, which automatically wakes your iPad up when you open the cover, and puts it on standby when you close it.
Logitech also confirmed that the Logitech Keyboard Case for iPad 2 and Logitech Tablet Keyboard for iPad from its current tablet accessories lineup are fully compatible with both the iPad 2 and the New iPad.
