Ipad 2 Accesories

Zagg have done it again and released what we are excited to say is the seasons MUST HAVE iPad accessory: The ZAGGmate iPad case with keyboard. It’s not often that we get entirely blown away by an accessory for the iPad, but this one has left us shell shocked and in awe. The perfect compliment to your iPad, this is the first iPad keyboard case combo that we have seen yet that has done it right. In fact, it’s the best bluetooth keyboard we’ve seen to date as well! It’s so right and so perfect that we already wonder how we ever used our iPad without it! Check out the review below…

The iPad’s New Best Friend

Our first impression of the ZAGGmate was: “Where’s the rest of it?” This iPad case is unlike anything else we’ve seen on the market to date and the designers at Zagg worked hard to literally rethink what an iPad case could be. This is an iPad case that doesn’t cover the whole iPad, but rather just covers the iPad’s screen, and leaves the back of the tablet exposed. The color and design is so perfectly complimentary to the iPad, it’s almost as if the two were meant to be together from the start. Sleek, stylish, unique, and just plain super awesome, we are in love with the ZAGGmate.
Constructed from aircraft grade aluminum and bead-blasted to an anodized finish, the ZAGGmate perfectly matches the finish on the iPad. Also, thanks to it’s unique design, the whole case when covering your iPad only adds about a quarter of an inch to the overall thickness, so you could quickly forget that it’s even there. Your iPad is well protected in this case with military grade high-density padding to protect the screen and edges. It weighs a mere 12.8 ounces with the keyboard as well, so it adds no noticeable bulk or heaviness to your setup. On the inside of the cover only model is an innovative stand that allows a whopping 10 different angles for viewing and typing in any conceivable position. The ZAGGmate with keyboard supports both portrait and landscape orientations.

Great Layout And Feel
The keyboard is easily the best bluetooth keyboard we’ve seen yet apart from Apple’s own much more bulky version. The layout and feel of the keys are eons better than anything we’ve tested yet. Highly responsive, snappy keys make typing on this keyboard easy and fast. The keyboard even has unique function keys on it that work with the iPad. It’s got a huge 510 mAH rechargeable battery inside that will last for several weeks without needing a recharge vie the included microUSB cable. There’s even four rubber feet included in the package if you want to attach them to the bottom of your case to prevent slippage while typing.

  1. On one side of things you definitely want to buy accessories if you have the money. On the other side, you may not have enough money to get everything you want.

Ipad 2 Apps: Skyfire Web browser Review

Ipad 2 Apps: Skyfire Web browser Review Skyfire for the iPad made headlines when it was first released, due to its ability to play Flash videos on a device previously void of this popular technology. Users flocked to the App Store, eager to drop five bucks for the chance to view their favorite clips, shows, and movies on their iPad. Not only did the browser play these videos, but the integrated video compression saved a significant amount of bandwidth for people on a restricted data plan. The initial excitement wore off quickly, though, as complaints were rampant about many sites not playing videos as expected. Since its inception Skyfire has certainly improved in this area, now claiming support for over 200,000 websites containing Flash. The dissenters will always be there as not every Flash video on the Web will be playable, even if the developers at Skype Labs remain diligent. Some of the backlash is warranted to a certain extent. If I paid $4.99 with the intent of viewi...
