Default Keyboard Question

Wondering what people do for a case for the keyboard. When you go places do you just carry the keybaord open like that?

I just got it and love it. Just wondering what you all do.

Apparently I like warming up old, cold threads

I am also thinking about the "official" Motorola BT keyboard. I played with it for a few minutes in the Verizon store and I liked it (minus the price tag). I was wondering if it has any option to be charged or connected to a power source in any way or if it runs on batteries exclusively. My ultimate goal is to design my own portfolio that I can use with the keyboard.

AT&T Galaxy Note II running CleanROM 4.8; ASUS TF101 running andros11's LiquidSmooth 4.1.2 RC9; MotoACTV running DPRomBeta9.

I have the Motorola ARTIX / XOOM bluetooth keyboard. I really like it. It comes in handy when you need to type out a long email. I really like the shortcut buttons, it has them for Gmail, Browser, Contacts, Messaging (doesn't work on the XOOM), Search, Home, Menu and Music. It also has volume controls, stop, play and track forward / back buttons. It is a little laggy, but I figure that's just because it's bluetooth. It takes 2 AA batteries, and I don't think that you can use anything else, no place to plug in a charger or anything. The more I use it the more I like it actually. The hard part is shelling out $70 for it.

i have the keyboard. The only lag I expierence is when typing on forums. For email and talk it is very capable. Also very light and compact. Would purchase again. I could do up a review when I get home.

A review would be much appreciated :) the two things stopping me from buying it are 1. How portable it is and 2. If its worth the price tag

I owned and returned it.

portability was decent, largeish as far as BT keyboards go but nothing major.

price is more than double other similar keyboards, but it has the dedicated keys, which you might like

quality I found to be on the cheapish side, given the premium price.
