Laptop Thoughts: Your Tablet Needs a Keyboard

"Logitech’s Tablet Keyboard comes in two versions; one for the iPad and one for Android 3.0+ slates. Same price — $69.99 — slightly different hotkeys for the different operating systems. I used the Android model for a week and a half for writing everything from short emails to long blog posts. Is this accessory worth your time and money?"

Tablets are great portable computing devices, but some find that software keyboards lacking. The solution is, of course, a keyboard! Why limit a tablet to a simple slate like device when you can add on things like a keyboard, or even a hardware pointing device! Still, there are times when a hardware keyboard is faster or easier for a lot of people though it does add one more thing to put in your bag. Thankfully, you do not have to take it out all the time, and use the lean, trim slate as it was meant to be. The only real compromise I can see is that using this keyboard can only be used in a situation where you have access to a flat surface.
