I really never been a fan of all special supplements and accessories are sold together with electronics. In my opinion a good solid case regarding the Tablet phone accessories should go. However, at a meeting with Logitech recently, a couple iPad accessories definitely caught my eye.
Both are very different in nature — one for the games while the other is more Utility devices — but they caught my eye because of the value chain, they will make the tablet itself. There are many funky attachable speaker bars and camera lenses, you can slap on your iPad, but seriously, how often will you actually use these things? May be you bust the speaker bar for one of the parties, or place the lens in your pocket before heading out on vacation, but it's really in size.
New proposals from Logitech for every day use and likely will make a difference in the duration of each session of the iPad, as well as activities carried out in the list. So without further ADO, let me introduce you to the latest iPad accessories from Logitech.
Keyboard Logitech fold-up for iPad 2
This thing is pretty damn nifty. It's basically a two in one iPad stand 2 and Bluetooth keyboard DOCK and works well with Apple's smart lid. Although Logitech wouldn't recommend it, it will probably protect against some minor drops and bumps (in combination with smart cover), too. It also charges over USB, so you can stop worrying about how many times you have to switch from battery power.
When you close the keyboard turns off automatically to save power. When open, it is automatically turned on and connected to the iPad. What's more, fold-up keyboard is actually a full-sized keyboard — so not only do you break free from the touch screen by typing the frustration we've all experienced, but you really will get handy physical keyboard, spacious enough for two people.
The only real problem I have with this keyboard DOCK is cumbersome, diaper. Thin and light, thin and light, thin and light. This is what Apple and almost each tablet/smartphone maker out there, it's all about the keyboard Logitech's fold-up, while Super functional, really should not be at the same time, thin and light. Prices, too, all that attractive, come to think of it.
Keyboard Logitech's fold-up for iPad 2 has an MSRP of $ 129.99 and should be available in the United States and Europe in September.
Logitech Joystick for iPad
We've seen a few odd joystick style contraptions lately, but not quite as solid as the Logitech. If you have ever played the game on your iPad, requiring a joystick or D-pad, you know, when I come up with when I say losing sucks. Not because I or you or anyone else lacked the skills to beat the game, but because paying attention to the game and placing your fingers can feel unfair.
Logitech Joystick solves these problems very fully, without adding any heavy junk your tablet computer. It connects to the iPad with suckers and super light. His design of the spiral provides fingertip pads always returns the position of the Center, finally offering some tactile feedback on the iPad.
Logitech Joystick for the iPad has an MSRP of $ 19.99 and should be available in the United States and Europe beginning in September.
