[$99] Continuing today’s theme of encasing your electronics, we’re pumped as hell to share the ZAGGmate keyboard case for the iPad and iPad 2. In short, it’s a hard-body aluminum case with a built-in keyboard styled to match your iPad (2) to perfection. The ZAGGmate is built from aircraft grade aluminum (in case your iPad gets involved in some form of aerial combat) with a bead-blasted, anodized finish to match the outer shell of your iPad. The case features a thin layer of drop-resistant, high-density padding and a unique hinge that props the tablet up in both portrait and landscape modes. Best of all, the ZAGGmate has a built in Bluetooth keyboard and only adds about a quarter inch to the thickness of the iPad or iPad 2. Sure, you can go out and buy Apple’s goofy magnet case and a separate Bluetooth keyboard, but all those peripherals limit the iPad’s best feature: its mobility… ok, maybe not its best feature, but still a good feature. Pick one up at ZAGG. Images below.
