14 DAY TRIAL // While most of the iPad accessories that have managed to make their way onto the market lately have more of a protective and/or aesthetic scope, there are a few that actually have a functional role as well, one of the most interesting products of this type we've come across lately being the Crux360 case from Crux, since this accessory will certainly boost up your Apple tablet's level of functionality. According to the manufacturers, the Crux360 is the worlds first clamshell-keyboard case that allows one to use the iPad in a multitude of positions, according to their particular needs. In fact, as far as we're concerned, one of this thing's main selling points is the presence of a full Bluetooth keyboard, that enables users to enter large amounts of text for emails and word processing. In this way, people who're not really used to typing really fast on the virtual keyboard provided by Apple's tablet can still enjoy a very high level of work efficiency. The Crux360 features a total of four functioning modes, namely a Laptop Mode, which allows use of the keyboard, a Movie Mode, great for watching videos, playing games, or just surfing the internet, a Tablet Mode, for reading books or magazines and a Carry Mode, the Crux360 closing up and protecting the iPad’s screen from nicks and scratches while not in use. The Crux360 does all of this while still allowing users access to all the ports and buttons on the iPad, which is also quite convenient. Of course, being able to turn one's iPad into a fully-fledged netbook is not something that comes cheap, the people from Crux asking around 149 US dollars for their Crux360 case. Then again, if you're really going to milk the iPad for all it's got, at least from the point of view of work-related functionality, then that extra sum doesn't seem all that high, does it now?
