Belkin Launches Upgraded Ultimate Keyboard Case for iPad

Best New Keyboard Case for iPad on Display at 2013 International CES

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Belkin today announced a new addition to its growing portfolio of tablet keyboards, the Ultimate Keyboard Case for iPad. The Ultimate Keyboard Case will be on display alongside all of Belkin’s all-in-one keyboard solutions at the 2013 International CES in the Belkin booth, #30651, in the South Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center, January 8-11, 2013.

“The Belkin Ultimate Keyboard Case is the newest member of our family of tablet keyboards and by far the best keyboard case for iPad on the market, marrying upgraded features such as a sleek aluminum alloy base with the thinnest keyboard available”

“The Belkin Ultimate Keyboard Case is the newest member of our family of tablet keyboards and by far the best keyboard case for iPad on the market, marrying upgraded features such as a sleek aluminum alloy base with the thinnest keyboard available,” said Jamie Elgie, senior director of product management at Belkin. “But the real magic of the Ultimate Keyboard is how seamlessly it works with the iPad—you can be more productive with the functionality of a laptop, and not be weighed down by the bulk.”

Featuring Belkin’s four-star TruType keys, the Ultimate Keyboard Case provides a smooth, laptop-like typing experience to minimize errors and maintain typing speed. It also offers a fully protective back cover to keep your iPad safe from scratches, scuffs and every day wear and tear when the keyboard is attached.

When not in use, the keyboard automatically shuts off for instant access to the iPad’s onscreen keyboard and to help save battery life. The Ultimate Keyboard Case also conveniently folds flat to hide the keyboard for watching movies or reading. Another upgraded feature is SoundFlow design, which enhances audio clarity and directs the sound toward you for enhanced movie watching or game playing.
