I was checking best buy.com and the site now displays Apple's Keyboard dock. Even the Apple site is starting to get reviews I believe, and have seen them on eBay now where the auction states are in hand. So naturally I'm wondering if they're now available?

And while I'm asking; are you getting either or? I like that the keyboard dock charges though can't ignore the chillness of use a Bluetooth keyboard...

I received my Keyboard Dock last week, ordered with my iPads on day one. I have an Apple wireless keyboard but would still need some way to mount/hold the iPad and the iPad specific keyboard holds the iPad at the perfect angle as well as charging it.
 
I already have the regular wireless keyboard, I may use that at some point occasionally with the iPad. But I never really saw the iPad as something that will replace a computer. That is, I'm not going to do a lot of typing on it, or organize a lot of files/pictures/whatever or do actual work. It's great for reading books and PDFs, web browsing, email and the occasional movie. And Star Walk is incredibly cool. But typing... not so much.
 
Ipad Keyboard Dock

Just got my email confirmation tonight saying that my ipad keyboard dock would be shipping April 27th.

However, Ipad 3g still says LATE APRIL!
 
Thinking about getting this for taking notes at school...onscreen keyboard is ok, but there's no way I'll ever be able to type as fast as I can on a real keyboard...then again, I might as well bring my laptop instead...lol
 
I bought one at the Apple store when I bought my iPad on launch day; don't need it after all so I'm returning it to the Apple store to get the camera kit instead.
