CruxSKUNK – Unfortunate Name, Great Keyboard Design

The folks at Crux have been busy working on the ultimate iPad keyboard case and are looking for backing from Kickstarter fans for their new CruxSKUNK. Yeah, that name is ummm… strange. But forget the name and check out the keyboard. First of all, it’s Bluetooth, it has full size keys and a standard layout with special function keys unlike so many iPad keyboards that we’ve seen and tried. It’s also convertible like previous keyboard cases from Crux. That means that if you want to use your iPad like a tablet instead of a laptop, you can fold the keyboard under it. At 19 mm, this case and your iPad will be similar in size to a Macbook Air. It’s made of aluminum, sandblasted and anodized to match the finish of your iPad. The thing I really like about these keyboard cases from Crux is that they let you use your iPad like a laptop on your lap. A lot of the other keyboard cases can only be used on a desk. If funding is reached, Crux hopes to ship the SKUNK in December. If you want one, there are still a few $155 and $175 pledge slots left.
