Typing on an iPad is the kind of thing you can get used to, and even tolerate, but let’s face it: nobody prefers an onscreen keyboard to a real one.

Logitech New Fold-Up Keyboard for iPad 2
review: Killer keys
Logitech New Fold-Up Keyboard for iPad 2 to make their keys fairly narrow–and that leads to
review: Killer keys cramped typing.
Logitech’s new Fold-Up Keyboard for iPad 2 (and
only iPad 2) leverages a clever design to provide
a full-height, full-width set of keys that’s no diffe-
rent than the desktop keyboard I’m typing on right
now. Ladies and gentlemen, your QWERTY ship has
come in.
At 1.3 pounds, the Fold-Up effectively doubles the
travel weight of your iPad–the fairly common price
you pay for adding a physical keyboard. The good
news is that the iPad pops out as easily as it pops
in, and the case leaves room for your Smart Cover.

Unfolding the keyboard turns it on; folding it again battery, Fold-Up Keyboard, Hp 530 battery, iPad 2,
turns it off. Smart. A single button activates pairing iPad keyboard, Logitech, Toshiba pa3534u-1brs
mode, and three small LEDs indicate power (though batteries
only when you first start using it), Caps Lock, and
battery status (only when the keyboard is charging
or the battery is low).
According to Logitech, the Fold-Up’s battery is good
for 500 hours of typing. A supplied USB cable handles
the charging, though it stands to reason you could
recharge it with any Micro-USB power source.
As noted earlier, using the Fold-Up is little different
than using, say, an Apple keyboard. The low-rise keys
feel comfortable and responsive; touch typists will
appreciate that everything is “where it belongs.”
And the number keys conveniently double as func-
tion keys for things like Search, slideshow, playback
controls, and volume.
My only complaint is with the lack of a dedicated
Delete key (i.e., a key that deletes to the right of the
cursor). To confuse matters (for me, anyway), the
Backspace key is actually labeled Delete. Maybe the
iOS has no “delete” function as we know it? Only
backspace? Oh, well–at least Backspace (er, Delete)
is a full-size key, and located exactly where your
pinky wants to go.
Bottom line: This is my favorite iPad keyboard to
date. It’s definitely on the pricey side at $129, but for
people who are keen on using their tablet in place
of a laptop, there’s simply no better choice.
