I’m not a fan of keyboard cases. I love my iPad as it is, specially with all those crappy keyboards running around. But this one is…amazing. Made of anodized aluminium, similar to the iPad, it resembles a MacBook Air once inserted into its patent pending hinge.

Once closed, both the hinge, connected through bluetooth, and the iPad will go to sleep, just as with the smart cover. Last but not least, as an option, The Brydge also integrates fully integrated stereo speakers that will improve those built in your iPad.

Take a closer look at their video:

Where can I get it? The Brydge is a kickstarter project, meaning they have to get support to get the funding. You can see how well they’re doing here. There still pledges open for $210, including speakers or $170 without.
