Archos Android tablets with magnetic Coverboard

The ultra-thin magnetic Coverboard included with all Gen10 tablets enables users to protect, stand and dock the tablet as well as type with a full-size Qwerty keyboard.  The 0.2" thick protective cover is secured to the Archos tablets with magnets. To open, the Coverboard simply twists to separate and reveal the full keyboard and magnetic kickstand. The magnetically guided docking system enables perfect alignment on the keyboard, eliminating the need for clips or stands. The integrated magnetic kickstand holds the tablet to the Coverboard as one solid unit, allowing users to sit back and enjoy their music and movies comfortably. When docked the Coverboard is powered by the tablet providing hours of productivity. The Coverboard also has a DC in, so when it's plugged into a power outlet the keyboard functions like a dock and charges the Archos tablets.
