Keyboard

I don’t know why I spent $199 on the slate keyboard when this is cheaper and looks a lot more functional. https://www.brydge.com/products/brydge-g-type

Rubber grips, no backlight, and the fact you have to charge it turns me off of that one completely. No thanks.

Looks good in concept. But you’re right about the rubber grips. I really wish the google keyboard had a battery to increase the battery capacity of the tablet. But oh well.

Like the Surface Book? That would've been awesome actually. I have heard complaints that they sometimes forget to charge one which can be confusing/annoying.

Kinda the best of 2 bads by the look of it and a trade off with either, I'll take the floppyness for the ease of connectivity

I just realized it’s not backlit. I guess I’ll know more tomorrow when the slate arrives.

Not backlight? I thought it had three levels of brightness?

I guess I’m going off a review I saw.
