iKey has released the new iKey StreetCase, a durable case with integrated keyboard designed to turn the Apple iPad into a rugged laptop.

Fully sealed and submersible while closed, the case provides the durability of a rugged laptop for iPad users. Ideal for heavy data input on the touchscreen-only device, it houses a fully sealed QWERTY Bluetooth-compatible keyboard with red LED backlighting. It is built out of ABS polycarbonate, and has customized internal rails that easily lock in place to support an ergonomic viewing position of 115-degree angle.

"At the touch of a button, the iPad can easily be popped in to the case to turn your tablet into a rugged laptop," said Dave Huddleston, iKey operations manager. "You can just as easily pop it out when the keyboard and case are not needed. This feature also allows the iKey StreetCase to be used by multiple users because it's so easy to swap out devices."

Sealed to NEMA 4X/IP65 standards while in a closed configuration, the case is resistant to liquids, dust and other debris. The Bluetooth-compatible, rechargeable keyboard featured inside boasts a one-touch pairing process, and can be paired to your device in less than 30 seconds.
