I’ve been working on a review for an iPad app this weekend. I saw this Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Cover for iPad 2 and New iPad and thought it would not only add to the review itself but make it a bit more fun.
The cover is thin as advertised in its name and doesn’t add much weight to the iPad. Its keyboard is narrow (constrained by the iPad’s length). But, the keys have travel and tactile feedback. I really appreciate the fact that it has a real on/off switch that doesn’t make you guess if the Bluetooth is actually on or off.
It has a retail price of $100. But, I found it for $80 at a local Costco store.

Gulp. This product has been sitting in my review queue for way too long. And, it is a good one: The Griffin GuitarConnect Pro. This $79.99 product lets you connect an electric guitar to an iPhone or iPad using a standard 1/4-inch guitar cable. Even better, it works great with GarageBand. So, GarageBand for iOS users don’t have to learn to use a new app. How does it compare to the iRig? Stay tuned.
Thirty-five (35) apps for my iPhone or iPad were updated in the past week. Here’s a summary of the updates that I found interesting.
