Brydge Adds Full-Sized Keyboard and Speakers to the iPad
A new Kickstarter project called Brydge aims to transform iPad into a laptop.
The iPad accessory boasts a variety of features that augment the potential of the iPad and make it look and function astonishingly similar to Apple's line of MacBooks, offering a full-sized keyboard, a stand, stereo speakers and more, Brydge comes in a size comparably smaller than Apple's MacBook Air.

Give me a half decent keyboard THAT ACTUALLY PROTECTS THE BACK... then give me a call...
-
Just add a Zagg skin and it should be perfect!
-
Looks cool
-
Without a mouse I don't see how an iPad can replace a laptop. At least for me that is.
-
Apple's idiots will look at this and a few days later, surf the web and saw ASUS Transformers and said - "ASUS copy Apple!"
-
turning your ipad into a half ass laptop... smart
-
An integrated touchpad is the only thing missing, add that and order me one! Hope it will stay in the 100$-150$ price range.

Laptop more powerful and make more sense then this
-
So we waited a long time for laptops to catch up with desktops now they have more or less but the idiots have gone totally the other way to a tablet that doesn't have a third of the power. Just because apple tells them this is it. We are screwed up for sure. U can buy a full power laptop for what u pay for a book reader (iPad kindle) with a thumb drive for storage

i really like this idea and i dont think this is backwards, i want a mac but i can not afford a mac. matter a face i have no computing device at all. this at least give me the option to type up a paper at home. i think this is a great idea. Everyone is not rich, until i can afford a mac this will do

Pardon me but I don't get the fascination with trackpad/mouse on this device. I thought the whole idea of the trackpad/mouse was to allow interaction with icons and features on the screen of which can be done purely by touch and gestures on the iPad. Why anyone would want to replace that feeling with a mere mouse beats the whole logic of having an iPad in the first place. As for me I like the whole idea of the brydge especially the stereo speaker part.

No track pad = no buy

Forget the trackpad , Its not needed at all. but if they could somehow put a usb port on there so i could attach an external drive! it would be an awesome product
-
hmmm, with my ZaggFolio I could allign my iPad both horizontally and vertically. I get full body protection and my keyboard is as slim and functional as the Brydge. I do not need the fancy external speaker if I am taking the keyboard with me to do work in the library. This is going to be a pass for me.
-
Did I mention that Zaggfolio will cost you half the price of Brydge? Now you know.

That made no sense. Also apple didn't make the keyboard you thundercunt.
