Bluetooth keyboards for Apple's iconic iPad abound. Some get it right, some get it very wrong and some fall in the middle ground. We take a look at one of the latter, the tyPad Bluetooth keyboard for iPad. It hits on some points offering a nice looking leatherette case and a spill resistant keyboard. It misses on some others with a slightly cramped layout and some non-standard key positioning.

It doesn't take long for accessory makers to jump on the latest iDevice. Usually upon launch, you'll see a wealth of cases, dongles and doohickeys for Apple's latest.

The Scosche foldIO is late to the iPad party, but it simply and elegantly solves two of the iPad's biggest problems.
