iHome introduced a new product of interest this week, the iDM5. What is so interesting about another keyboard for the iPad? Well this one is meant to be a stand, keyboard and bluetooth speaker system for your home and not for traveling. It's a neat idea although a rather expensive one I think. At $129 dollars I suppose for an iPad peripheral that has a bluetooth keyboard, speakers, two usb charging ports, and a stand it really is probably a bargain as all of those things would cost you a lot more separately. iLounge did a great review giving it a B and slightly recommended. Their biggest gripers were with the keyboards responsiveness and not having an actual bottom dock charger built into the device. However it is providing two usb ports for you to charge any devices or phones with it and you can keep the iPad in landscape position and charge it at the same time. I feel that it would be a good buy for someone who is looking for their iPad to be a portable device it is but needs a good keyboard/office kind of platform to type on and play their music or skype calls with. check it out at iHome.
