> The keyboard cover is actually amazing

It makes me really wonder if we can be talking about the same thing. After similar comments, I looked at one in a store looking forward to being impressed but it turned out to be a flimsy thing with no key travel. It reminded me of a cover of ring binder. The sort of thing that if it bounces around a bag for a couple of months it would become dog-eared and split at the edges.

> Regarding the ugliness, that's matter of taste.

I don't know... I really feel I can make the case that its ugly! It looks like its not properly closed and that it won't be protecting the screen properly. If a metal pen gets loose in a bag its going to love bouncing around scratching up the screen.

Originally there were two versions, but I think there is only one now. The touch cover looks more like a ring binder cover. (random link I found, no connection) http://www.alphr.com/features/378001/microsoft-surface-touch...
