Here’s a quick look at one of the more anticipated iPad accessories this year, Logitech’s new Solar Keyboard Folio.
Two “dye-sensitized solar cells” on the outside of the folio charge the NiMh batteries, which have a two-year life span.
The folio works with the new iPad and the iPad 2 and will retail for $130. Logitech is currently taking pre-orders, and the product site on Amazon shows a two to three week wait.
I’ll have a full review in a couple of weeks. Initial impressions: I like the size, weight, easy installation and removal of the iPad and, of course, the solar-powered feature. But the keyboard is not full size, so it may be a little small for some users, and the faux leather may not be too durable.
