Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
I have purchased Logitech products for years and found they are well constructed and usually have user beneficial features that justify their higher cost (example: the shape of their mouse which conforms to your hand and wrist so that you don't get tired like the competitor's mice). One advantage to this keyboard is the tactile feel of the keys. I hoped that the keys would be larger than the virtual keyboard of the iPad 2. They are slightly smaller so a person with small to small-medium will love them. Those with large fingers are going to have the same problem as they have with the iPad's keyboard.
The keys across the top are a real time saver: home, search, slide show, show/hide iPad keyboard, cut, copy, paste, iTunes-previous, iTunes-play/pause, iTunes-next, mute, volume up, volume down, and sleep/restore. The next row are your standard numbers and characters. The rest of the keyboard is just like a full size with command, control, option/alt, and 4 direction keys.
I have a leather case that my iPad is in and so I just place it behind the keyboard and it works fine. If you choose to place the naked iPad in the slot so it will be tilted up, it is held securely by a bar (much better than cases where there are grooves in the leather). When you are finished, you place it face down onto the keys. There is good protection for the iPad but the iPad's solid back is vulnerable. Rubber bumpers in the corners hold the iPad securely. I suspect that over time they will compress and not hold as tightly but that will depend on usage and don't think this is a factor unless you will be taking your iPad out at every class.
The charging pigtail is only about 6" long so I will leave it attached and disconnect at the USB end so as to avoid the broken connection problem that others have experienced. I can not provide a time until recharging is needed. Bluetooth range from the iPad is about 40'. The aluminum case is light and attractive.
If you do a significant amount of typing, this keyboard is much better than the iPad's. I've looked at several other keyboards and they all have about the same size keys. This one has more extra keys and it will make up for the extra time it takes you to type if you have large fingers.
If the Logitech keyboard was priced around $79 I would call it a bargain. Is it worth a little more? Probably. If you don't get the features this one has, I suspect you will be sorry you did not spend a little more and have them.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
I have the original "Zagg Mate" case/keyboard for the first iPad. For the most part, I liked that case: a perfect fit for the iPad, but the keyboard was kind of cramped.
At first glance, this new case for the iPad 2 (made by Zagg, sold by Logitech) looks extremely similar to the original. However, there are several noteworthy improvements over the original:
1) First and foremost, the keyboard is noticably more spacious. Slightly smaller enter/tab/shift/caps lock keys, and some other minor rearranging has led to keys that have a little more space between them, both horizontally and vertically. On the old Zagg Mate, I frequently typed the incorrect keys. On this one (I'm using it now to type this review), the layout is perfect for my hands.
2) It's easier than it used to be to set up the iPad on the stand. On the old Zagg Mate, there was a little flip-up holder that needed to be set up to hold the iPad in its place. On this version, there is no need for the flip-up. Whether you want the iPad in portrait or landscape mode, just set it in the slot and go.
3) Other minor improvements: dedicated cut/copy/paste keys, magnets that turn on/off the iPad 2 (just like the smart cover), and easy bluetooth connectivity all help to make this a great keyboard/case.
Final verdict: This is a great case! I was hesitant to get it because of my experience with the original version, but this one is a great big step forward!

Works great with my new ipad. Other than a step missing from the instructions which was quickly remedied with a call to Logitech I had no issues.
