If you haven’t picked up an iPad Air yet be sure to take advantage of this limited-time $50 discount from Staples. FabricSkin deal is also available from Best Buy and includes a couple more colors.
9to5Mac reviewed several iPad Air keyboard cases and found the Logitech FabricSkin to be the winner:
Using the accessory as a case for the Air while not in keyboard mode is comfortable and convenient. Relatively, the cover (which protects the front and back of the iPad Air) is not much bulkier than a non-keybaord case built for the same purpose. However, the electronics in the accessory add some weight. The volume rocker, rear camera, speakers, and power button are all accessible while the cover is closed.
