maybe its just me...but does 129 seem like a steep price point for a case that has a keyboard built into it? Yeah I see that i can have up to 5 months of battery life, but still, 129 for a case/keyboard combo that doesnt even have usb support seems a bit much. then again, maybe its just me and my crippling school debt speaking *crawls into fetal position*

5 months? 5 MONTHS? And attached magnetically?
That's worth $129.
You have no idea what a pain in the a** it is to have to charge that and your tablet every couple of days.
And those other crappy keyboards for tablet (all tablets) that just stay on because the folio is wrapped around your device. Also a PITA.
