Belkin announces Keyboard Folio for iPad 2

"People are pretty outspoken in their dislike for flimsy rubber keyboards and the need for a solution that acts and feels more like a true laptop keyboard," said Patrick Hayati, Managing Director, Emerging Markets, Belkin.

"We took these complaints to heart and created a keyboard that people not only want to use, but also outperforms other products in terms of typing speed and errors."

The Belkin Keyboard Folio features a larger keyboard with TruType hard plastic keys for optimal tactical response and a more computer-like feel. A 1.7 mm key travel improves typing accuracy and speed, making it easier to edit documents or draft emails.

Lightweight, slim and stylish, the Keyboard Folio sports a unique tri-fold design that tucks the keyboard away when not in use and keeps the screen protected on the go.

"With the explosion of the tablet market and more people using tablets as a laptop stand-in, people really need accessories that provide enhanced functionality and portability while on the go," said Elgie.

"Thanks to its ultra-thin design, the Belkin Keyboard Folio enables a comfortable, computer-style typing experience wherever and whenever you need it."
