PROS - The form, feel and smell (not kidding) are what I would expect in a much more expensive item - if you want to tote around a luxurious and rich looking exec-on-the-go iPad folder - you get it with this soft beauty. The case is no light weight and with the added heft of the iPad it might be a bit much for some to manage while cradled in their arms and attempting to operate. For example, it sees a lot of use in my lap while in recliner watching TV - my small framed wife could not pull that off comfortably. I put this under the PROS because before the case I was using my iPad in the same manner and it seemed more difficult to hold and work with, but with the added padding and grip surface it's a pleasant experience. Also, I have less fear of damage from loss of grip or beverage spillage. The occasional whiff of leather is delightful and I only wish I could find a room freshener with that scent and staying power. CONS - The instructions are pathetic, not that they're lacking information - yes, they could be better in that sense; it's the ridiculous print size. I have a very high magnification lens headset I use when inspecting my coin collection for minute details and had to use it to work my way through the Bluetooth setup and cable instructions. As others have pointed out, the keyboard is difficult to operate - even more that I expected because I'm a heavy handed typist and I thought that would overcome the problem, but no, it didn't. It takes considerable and deliberate pressure to get by and I'm curious under what circumstance I would feel compelled to make that effort. Got me thinking about getting a Bluetooth mouse to poke and punch keys. But, I really didn't buy it for the keyboard - so, all-in-all I'm very happy with this choice because it gives me everything I wanted and more. Just don't buy it for the keyboard and you should be very happy.

The Brookstone wireless keyboard/case and it works great, but is for the iPad1, for the price it's just ok keys stick or skip, but you pay for what you get. Love the pink color.

Can't recommend this keyboard because it is impossible to type with any speed on it. The keys are just too stiff and have no tactile response that would enable a skilled typist to use it comfortably. Will probably have to look elsewhere for a better product.

I wante to wait a few weeks to test out the keyboard before writing the review. The keyboard is functions well for the ipad. I have an ipad2 and it fit nicely in the cover with no issues. It took some pactice but so far it has been working really well. The case isn't too bulky and the feel is nice. Overall, this is an excellent option for the budget conscious consumer looking to score a keyboard and case for the ipad.

Dust and water proof keyboard takes some time to get used to. Have to type directly down straight on some keys to make the letters appear. Battery life is excellent. It powers down into standby very easily and comes out with a single button push.

Although the keyboard was good quality for an excellent price, the tactile feel of the keys did not feel right. You have to be direct in your press and fairly firm. An experienced typist would get frustrated very easily. It is good for my hunt and peck ability. Also the bluetooth connection was finicky at times, and did not automatically connect when i turned on the ipad. I found the bluetooth slide switch to be too small for my finger to operate. With that said the quality of keyboard and case was impressive. Very durable and takes a lot of beating and abuse. I use it mostly for long letters, or documentation. It is not suited for quick and dirty typing. Irrespective of the negative issues outlined above, I would still recommend this product for purchase.

The case is very nice. The bluetooth easy to connect, the keyboard is a different story. I find the silicone like material very difficult to use. I was hoping to be able to use this for business but the typing speed is hindered by the keyboard so in that regard it was not a good purchase for me.

I loved the look and performance of the keyboard, however I was disappointed that the cover did not turn off the iPad when I closed it causing my battery to run out quicker. The cover that came with the iPad automatically shut off the display when it is closed. I am currently using my old cover without the keyboard because of the shit off issue. The cover does look good and I liked the quality of the cover,but unfortunately without the shut off it is not useful.

This keyboard is OK and interfaces easily with an IPad, but the keys have to be pushed down hard for the letter to take...lots of going back to retype. Need to redesign keyboard for lighter keystroke. Otherwise a good temp traveling keyboard.

I bought the pink case. It looks great and charged up without a problem. I had no problems syncing the keyboard with my I-pad. The only negative is that it is a bit cumbersome to use the I-pad WITHOUT using the keyboard, if you wish to do so. The cover is sturdy and I like that the keyboard can be wiped down.

Have had my eye on cases for ipad for months. Saw this one and plus it has bluetooth keyboard. Price was great too. Makes ipad a little heavier but it stands up nice and folds down over the keyboard. By surprise I found it also puts ipad to sleep. Love this purchase.

I bought this for my boyfriend's birthday, and he absolutely loves it! That only thing I could possibly complain about it, is that the rubber keyboard isn't sensitive enough. Other than that, it's wonderful. :)
