Solid Line Products (http://www.solidlineproducts.com) is now taking orders for its all-in-one leather case & Bluetooth keyboard for the iPad, which ships next week. The Bluetooth 2.0 silicone keyboard is built into the quality leather folio case designed to protect the iPad from nicks, scratches, and scuffs.

Designed for those who find the iPad’s soft keyboard impractical for any serious typing, the built-in keyboard pairs seamlessly to the iPad with three simple steps, according to Sold Line Products founder and CEO Henry Lo. The case allows for easy positioning of the iPad at an optimum angle for viewing a horizontal screen and typing, he adds.

“The iPad is indeed a revolutionary product,” Lo says. “Unfortunately, we humans can’t undo 30 years of keyboard conditioning overnight. This new product makes the iPad more practical for emails, note taking, or even for posting Facebook status updates.”

The keyboard uses a micro-USB cable for charging. When fully charged, which takes 4 to 4.5 hours, the keyboard provides 90 hours of continuous use. The case measures 9.75 x 8 x 1 inches with the iPad inside. An inner flap holds the iPad securely in place, and a magnetic clasp on the outer flap adds secondary protection.

Priced at $119, Solid Line is taking pre-orders and will begin shipping units early next week for early October delivery. The case is available in either black or brown.
