"Schools are increasingly purchasing iPads for use in the
classroom," said Mike Culver, vice president and general manager of
mobility at Logitech. "While tablets are enabling new ways of teaching
and testing, there's a challenge when a teacher needs to simultaneously
pair multiple iPads with multiple wireless Bluetooth keyboards. We
developed the Logitech Wired Keyboard for iPad to specifically solve
this problem, so students can now simply plug it in and start typing."
With its durable, spill-resistant design and a key lifespan of more than
five million strokes, the Logitech Wired Keyboard for iPad brings
Logitech's expertise and experience in keyboards to the classroom. Its
low-profile, full-size keys provide the familiar fluid feedback you're
used to when typing, while saving screen space to make reading and note
taking easier. Familiar shortcut keys help you easily access iPad
functions, such as copy and paste, Siri and App switching, and an
integrated Home button ensures you can get back to the Home screen
instantly and easily.
The Logitech Wired Keyboard for iPad is planned to be on display at the
2013 International Society for Technology in Education conference in San
Antonio, Texas from June 23-26 in Logitech's booth, number 5295.
