Default Does such a case exist?

I've been looking for a case that probably what most people want (sleek design, light, comfortable). I'm looking for a case made of metal, something sturdy, that seals in some way, has a built in keyboard that is actually worth a damn (bluetooth or wired, either is fine). The closest example I could think of would be something akin to an Aluma-wallet, but holding the device in without obscuring the screen. And a kickstand.

Does any such case exist or am I stuck doing some welding? Every case I see is too classy or just doesn't work for me.

Wink case

I am a new user and therefore cannot post external link to the product I have purchased. It is not metal I hear but the same material the N7 is made of. Am expecting this next week and purchase after reading about it on xda and seeing a YouTube video on it.

Search Amazon for IVSO® Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard Case For Google Nexus 7 Tablet (BLACK Keys).

Happy to write a few lines of review if it helps.

Have you taken a look here? There's a pretty extensive database right there.

Yes, unfortunately I didn't see anything that struck me. The closest I found would be the carbon fiber case.

If I found the right thing, the reviews aren't very positive... saying the keyboard feels a little flimsy/breaks easily.

I put a short few lines on my impression of the IVSO case here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...0#post38130820. I don't agree that the keyboard feels flimsy. In fact the opposite. Hope this helps.
