I use the Apple Wireless Keyboard with my ipad - have tried a few others but none came up trumps for me personally.

Battery life is good and the size isn't as much trouble as you might think.

I picked mine up on a whim really at Dixons T5 - I was struggling to feed my 'must buy something from Dixons T5' addiction when I happened upon a pile of these in the corner - think it was £50ish - turned out to be a good investment - unlike some other things I've randomly bought at that store in the past!

I already have the iPad2 and apple keyboard. Problem is carrying them in a bag or backpack. Is there any case or bag that is made to include the two of them? I haven't been able to locate one but find that incredible. Any thoughts?

Does anyone have suggestions for a keyboard that's small to be used with the iPad that can support reprogrammable keys to change the layout? Unfortunately, there's no mechanism to remap keys arbitrarily, so you're stuck with whatever Apple deems the most common layouts.

I highly recommend a folding keyboard for traveling around. It's like a build-in case.

Targus used to make an excellent one that folded up into something the size of an iPhone, with a metal back that was tough as rocks. No longer.

The Logitech 920 Foldup Keyboard looks like the next best thing. Folds up, holds the iPad, and turns off when you close it up. I can vouch for good Bluetooth performance on my Logitech MiniBoombox speakers!

I just bought the Targus bluetooth keyboard last week. I'm currently using it on a trip and I think it's pretty nice. This is my first bluetooth keyboard and I really like the size, not too small, not too big. Overall it seems pretty well built.

I spent probably too much time researching and testing different options, there are many great ones, I'm very much sold on this one, for this year anyway, function and great style.

The most stable also using iPad 2 in portrait or landscape on my lap or wherever, and when at a table I can push the screen further away and use the keyboard while removed if I want.
