Almost!
By Peter T. Szymonik
Here is the good news: Of the 4-5 keyboard cases I have tried for the iPad 2, this one has by far the best keyboard. No other keyboard even comes close. The case is a hard plastic that does protect the iPad 2 and it stays snug inside it. The viewing angle is perfect when using the keyboard. It's better than the similiar LogiTech case (which Zagg also makes) because the Zagg version covers and protects the back of the iPad 2.
Here is the bad news. The case isn't so great if you don't want to use the keyboard, which in my case (pardon the pun) is quite often. It would be nice if the keyboard could somehow flip out of the way, but its nearly impossible and becomes dead weight in this kind of usage.
And this is the larger problem with the case - the plastic shell. I have found that due to rubbing with the keyboard, the case is marring the edges of the iPad 2. Nothing bad, but very noticable. There should be no contact. But this happens because the case has to "snap" together when closed, if its not exactly right, the marring happens.
What would make this case a 11 out of 10 is if it used the exact same design - but instead of plastic, it has a nice leather exterior or some combination of the plastic and leather. And if the keyboard was removable in a way that made more sense with the case.
Again, this one has by far the best keyboard for your iPad 2, but the plastic case is as much a drawback and it is a benefit. For me, I will only use this case when I travel, otherwise I will use another leather case for daily and home use.

BEYOND AMAZING
By Arslaan Arshed
I researched for days about what keyboard to buy for the iPad. I recently started graduate school and figured I could use my iPad to edit PDFs, and was I correct! I originally ordered the keyboard AND the cover, but was sent a WHITE keyboard and cover. I called and the customer service was beyond amazing, that I could not complain. Usually I do not have patience with orders gone wrong, but the customer service was so nice. They sent me a NEW black keyboard and told me to keep the old one. I also received an updated cover with a new clip on it several weeks later.
The customer service is PHENOMENAL and I have nothing but positive things to say about the keyboard and case. It closes perfectly and the new magnet allows me to just shut the thing close and it turns off. Essentially it is like a portable touchscreen laptop now. The battery life on the keyboard is amazing. I use it almost 6 hours a day and I just charged it for the first time after nearly a month of use.
My only issues are that it adds a bit of weight to the iPad, but it is still MUCH lighter and cooler than a laptop. Secondly, the keyboard tends to disconnect with the bluetooth at times, but activating it again takes seconds.
Highly recommend the product!

A very nice accessory to the iPad
By Michelle Stone
First, let me describe a few things I do have issues with:
The case is not a carbon fiber case as the presentation would lead you to believe. It is carbon black plastic with a cross hatch pattern. There is no way to charge the keyboard without removing it from the case, which is not all that hard, but it is inconvenient. The third thing is that the "delete" key is actually a backspace key. There is no delete key. It is also located just under the key which turns off the iPad. Now, that, will take me some getting used to! My last gripe is that it takes me a while to figure out how to get the case closed. The case top and bottom don't just automatically mate up when you fold the two halves together.
What I do like about this case and keyboard is that it is compact, seems very well thought out and it holds my iPad quite securely. All of the iPad's ports are easily accessible. The complete unit sits comfortably in my lap making it the smallest and most useable little computing combination I've ever used. Yes, I have some minor issues with this keyboard/case combo, but it has made using the iPad a real joy. I highly recommend it. It's hard for me to believe that a keyboard this small can actually allow me to type nearly at my normal speed. The little nubbies on the J and F keys are very pronounced and I like that very much. Some keyboards don't have that feature and I'm constantly looking down to see where my fingers are on the keys.
Oh and there are a couple caveats you should be aware of. The keyboard mates via a bluetooth connection. You must disable it to use the touch screen keypad. And, this is not a flaw of the keyboard but part of the design of the iPad. You can not connect a blue tooth mouse without having to hack the OS. The iPad was designed to be a touch device, not a computing replacement.
