Hey guys,
I have a very specific request with which I could use your assistance today.

I recently bought myself an iPad mini and a Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard and now I'm looking for a case which will fit both of those (combined or in different compartments).

I thought about something like this
http://www.booqeurope.com/eu/folios/viper-hardcase/VHC7-GFT
but i can't find any info how big the other compartments are and if they would fit the keyboard I have.
or
even something like this
http://www.amazon.de/V7-TDM23BLK-GN...mputers_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=1WTDA7JZ3XHY2QEZWH8B

But all of these seem to be just big enough to fit the ipad itself. According to the reviews most don't even have space for a smart cover, let alone a keyboard.

Does anybody have a suggestion for a good case that would fit the mini and the logitech keyboard?

Thanks in advance.

I use this with my Air and a Zaggkeys Cover, but do wish it had more pockets: http://www.acmemade.com/tablet-iphone-cases/the-bay-street-case-for-ipad

In case anyone else come a cross this thread and is looking for something similar. Both the Viper Hardcase 7 and the cheap one I linked, will fit the ipad mini and the logitech ultrathin keyboard. the viper has two compartments that are about the same size, so you can put them in separately.

I went with something a little different. I use the Saddleback leather Bible cover - Medium. Thick leather with big edges give some decent protection. Note that sometimes on Dave's Deals they have a small Bible cover. This will not fit an iPad Mini so be careful when looking at the discount page.

The Maglus Stylus and a Crkt Tactical Pen. I use Neodymium (rare earth) magnets (3 in back - 1 in front) to keep the Maglus on - and the Clip of the Crkt Pen to keep it with the case.

Moleskine Large Jornal on the magnet side - logitech thin keyboard and iPad mini Retina on the other side.

I actually have a coverbot cover - which is the same size as the logitech. This is the thickness with the moleskine+ipad mini retina + coverbot. I actually like the coverbot better as it has backlight for the keyboard and the square home key - is better for me. With the Logitech I am always hitting the home key instead of the 1 key. Downside is you have to hit fn-home for the home key on the coverbot to work.
