I realize this isn't being sold as an Apple product but you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between it and the real deal. Frankly we're wondering what's going on.- Seems to be made out of aluminum, just like the original- has the Apple logo on the back, just the original- manual says Apple on it, yep, just like the originalAll I know is it worked perfectly right out of the box at less than half the price. Go figure. The only real difference are the decals on some of the keys which correspond to the app in the App Store (I don;t plan on using that app).
As previous reviewers have said, this is a clone of Apple's keyboard. Love it tho the printing on the keys is annoying. Not a big deal tho, sure worth the lower price.
This is actually a genuine Apple product, with pictures slapped on it that's suppose to work with some shortcuts in the iPad. I bought it hoping it would work with the HP TouchPad, and for 25 dollars, it was difficult to go wrong. Not only does it work perfectly with the HP TouchPad, but it also feels better than the HP Wireless Keyboard that's suppose to go with the HP TouchPad!I have mixed feelings about the silicone cover, but that's totally a preference thing.I plan to hook this up with my computer (after I acquire a USB BT dongle).
