50 Gadget Gift Ideas for the Holidays

To date, iPad owners have had little reason to be jealous of their Microsoft Surface-toting brethren. But if there was to be one enviable feature, it’s that the Windows tablet’s keyboard cover is pretty smooth. Yet here comes the Logitech FabricSkin Keyboard Folio to the rescue, adding full-sized keys and touch-sensitive typing to the iPad. Covering both the front and back of the iPad with water-repellant fabric, this $149 folio is a stand and Bluetooth-connected keyboard in one. At under one pound and .7 inches thick, it adds minimal bulk for a cover, let alone a full-sized keyboard, and with shortcut keys like copy, paste, and even function keys, it even makes the tablet more PC-like. Battery life for the USB-rechargeable peripheral is hard to gauge, but Logitech boasts three months of power at two hours of use per day.
