I'm getting ready for my new iPad, and I wonder if the Bluetooth keyboard is essential. Since it has a large screen, it's hard to type in just like iPhone, so 'm thinking buying a keyboard if it's needed.

Subjective matter. If you think you need it then get it. If it was truly essential then everyone would have one. If you're not sure then check out the existing threads and reviews out there on the web.I'm getting ready for my new iPad, and I wonder if the Bluetooth keyboard is essential.
i got this keyboard:
http://slickdeals.net/f/4693838-Motorola-Android-Bluetooth-Keyboard-9-50-at-Staples-B-M-YMMV
it was made by motorola for the Xoom, but it works on the iPad too. It's fantastic. It's fairly lightweight too!
Is it still $9.50?
it still is, but it's a clearance item, thus YMMV.
check out:

insert Item: 927859 and you your zip code and see if you have a staples store that carries it. It should say Low Stock Clearance Item. If it isn't available, it will say not sold in your location.
Mine was an open box, so i got 10% off which is pretty nice.
And just in case people do get it, the problem is it doesn't connect as per the book's instructions. So just hold the power button and letters VAR and your iPad should detect it properly!
Happy Hunting
also, as a heads up: for those interested in Logitech products, i believe if you register a logitech product with logitech, they send you a 20% off coupon code.

[i haven't tried it, but i think you receive a coupon within 24 hours]
This would drop the ultra thin $99 orig - $20 discount = $79
And the solar becomes $79 orig. - $16 discount = $63
i got two of those codes but they don't work on check out on their site.. very annoying. still waiting for their reply email about it.
the process of getting the code is very easy, all you do is just give an email and pick which logitech product you bought from them. done. no serial # or anything to show as proof.

I guess it's subjective. I will try to use the device WITHOUT the keyboard, and I will decide to buy it if I need it. I feel like it's essential as I read responses, but I don't want to turn in my ipad to a laptopThanks everyone for sharing your settings!

Well, two things: if you're one of the lucky ones and happen to be a touch typist, then a full blown keyboard is the one for you; but if you're like me, a speedy two-fingered typist, you'll soon get used to the Ipad keypad.
