The iPad Smart Case from Waterfield Designs protects your iPad 2 with a high impact insert, but keeps the interior smooth as Ultrasuede. The sleeve hides all the stitchwork for a very clean look. If you can’t get by with just your iPad, and want the charger, keyboard and some other small items in a convenient package, check out the iPad Wallet from Waterfield Designs. This iPad 2 case has room for much more than the iPad, but is still a decent size. You can add a shoulder strap if you want an easier way to carry the combo.

I carry a Bluetooth keyboard for my iPad, especially when I attend conferences or courses for my own purposes, such as the CIUTI forum, and want to take notes. In booths I use the on-screen keyboard to keep things compact. I purchased a Waterfield Designs case for the keyboard, which is fantastically light and robust. Well worth $29.

The first thing I would recommend is the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard. It is super-durable and the batteries last forever. In fact, I haven’t changed the batteries since Christmas of 2010! I also use a SF Bags keyboard sleeve to keep it safe in my bag.

Prerequisite Protection. Take your ultrathin Apple wireless keyboard to work, the coffee shop, or wherever you go. The Keyboard Slip Case offers gentle protection in a slim ballistic nylon case with a lightly padded liner. A piping trimmed edge let's you chose to add a splash of bold color, or to stay under the radar with subdued tones. Pack it up, keep it protected and take it with you.

Back in June I reviewed the Waterfield Travel Express for the Apple Keyboard. I use it mostly during travel times so I wanted to give you a brief update and some news. It’s still going strong and is one of my favorite organizational accessories. It was designed for the Keyboard and additional accessories. But I have a secret to tell. SSSHHHH! I have been using it with my 7” Samsung Galaxy tab also. Obviously it’s too big for it, but it also holds my needed accessories at the same time. With that said, there are Travel Expresses designed for your iPad too. I do not think this is new but it never clicked with me that there was one specific to that device. I put a link below. How cool is that. Lastly, for those considering getting the newly announced Amazon Fire, yes, there will be a Travel Express for that as well. But no matter what device you have, Waterfield can probably hook you up with a cool accessory.
