Apple to Offer Surface-Style Keyboard Cover for iPad?
Jamie Ryan, Apple’s former employee, says there’s a Surface-style keyboard cover in the works. Ryan has reportedly been speaking to some people at the company, who shared with him the information about prototypes.

It is interesting whether Apple will show us the new iPad case on Tuesday or not.
