It’s always dangerous to get too excited about a product which you’ve seen only in videos and photos. But more than 3200 people–myself included–found this Kickstarter project enticing enough to plunk down money. It’s an aluminum keyboard that aims for an Apple-caliber aesthetic and which turns an iPad into the most familiar device of them all: a clamshell laptop. We’ll have to wait until it ships to know if the steep price ($170, or $210 for a version with speakers) is worth it. The first units are supposed to arrive in October.
