The Nokia Lumia 2520 was Nokia"s first attempt at a Windows RT tablet. The Lumia 2520 had the latest specifications and borrowed its sleek design elements and material from popular Lumia handsets. While reviews were generally favorable, with our own Brad Sams assigning it an 8.5 / 10, there was just one thing missing. The Nokia Lumia 2520 was touted as a productivity tablet but did not have a keyboard. It wasn"t because Nokia didn"t offer one, it"s because they weren"t available. The Power Keyboard was absent from U.S. and global markets.
Nearly four months after the release of the Nokia Lumia 2520, Verizon and AT&T have finally received stock of the coveted keyboard. The Nokia Power Keyboard is a physical keyboard with chiclet style keys, a track pad, two full-size USB 2.0 ports, and an extra 2027 mAh battery. The battery should provide up to five hours of additionally battery life. The keyboard has a wraparound cover that protects the tablet and also acts as a stand, allowing users to prop the Lumia 2520 in an upright position.
The Power Keyboard is currently available from AT&T and Verizon. The keyboard comes in black (it is also available in red but unlisted on both sites) and retails for $149.
