Logitech launched Ultra Thin Keyboard for iPad.

THE TABLET THAT WOULD LIKE TO.

The tablet we would like. Something that comes close to the model of the notebook but with the convenience and ease of use iPad. The touch screen, of course, standard. Steve Jobs said that tablet PCs, and they were two different worlds. In an interview in 2011, shortly after the launch of the second version of the iPad, justified in part the success of the Apple tablet over other competitors in this way: "The iPad is not a computer, and competitors who approach it like the PC market will fail."


Perhaps the time Jobs was right. Or simply his was just a commercial move to convince us that there was something new on the market that was worth buying. In many we gave him a straight. But by realizing that, after all, the magic iPad lacked the freedom to create their own content such as a PC.
From parts of Microsoft's Redmond lords, that in the tablet market stood by for too long, have tried to reconcile the two with the new tablet Surface and Windows 8. The success to be demonstrated. But certainly a step they did.


The evolution of App for iPhone OS has undoubtedly encouraged the use iPad for purposes that go well beyond the simple use of content. Nevertheless, there is a physical limit to the use of the tablet that is bothersome at times.

For some days I use the new Thin Keyboard by Logitech. A thin keyboard for the new iPad (also works with iPad 2) that attaches magnetically to the tablet and it is also to cover for the screen.


Compared to the Apple keyboard, Wi-Fi (which costs only 68 euros) has the advantage of hooking the iPad becoming a single body and supporting the tablet upright. Very useful especially if you're on the move and you're used to taking the tablet to write on your legs.


The mix of physical keyboard and touch screen makes the interaction with the various immediate and very nice app. The design quite nice, the response satisfactory, discrete materials. If the iPad mainly used to write long texts is definitely a gadget to have.


The sore point of this Thin Keyboard is the price: 99 euros. Too many. Get two accounts is 599 euros for the 16GB model with integrated 3G-$ 100 added up the keyboard, you find yourself spending 700 euros for a replacement for a computer. Also to be good. But a 11-inch MacBook Air, thin, powerful, and with which you can do pretty much everything, it costs little more than making the necessary comparisons.

It 'true that alternatives to this keyboard on the market there are dozens. But at the height of convenience are not seen that turn your iPad into a kind of brick.

At the showdown if you want a tool to be sent in writing and replicate the comfort of a physical keyboard to your tablet, the Thin Keyboard Logitech certainly deserves. Pending the arrival Siri writing in Italian and replace your fingers with that voice.
