Logitech introduces a Combo Touch keyboard for the fourth-gen iPad Air

Logitech has just announced a new version of its Combo Touch keyboard case for the fourth-generation iPad Air. It still has that Microsoft Surface-like kickstand and detachable keyboard with trackpad. The iPad's Smart Connector powers it, so you don't have to worry about charging the keyboard on its own. Plus, it has backlit keys and iPadOS shortcut keys, too. You can even store the second-gen Apple Pencil in an open slot at the top of the case.

If its looks seem familiar, that's because it has an almost identical design to the Combo Touch cases for the 2021 iPad Pros. This new accessory for the iPad Air 4th-gen will be available in Oxford Grey for USD 199.99 (around CAD 245) at logitech.com, apple.com and additional retailers.

Nathan Pyle's 'Strange Planet' webcomic to get an Apple TV+ animated series

Nathan Pyle's Strange Planet webcomic and graphic novels are becoming an animated series on Apple TV+. The company has decided to adapt the webcomic into a 10-episode series, with Community and Rick and Morty creator Dan Harmon on board to help with the show. Its creator Pyle will serve as an executive producer on the project. Apple Studios will produce the series along with ShadowMachine, the animation studio behind Netflix's BoJack Horseman.

Strange Planet will be the second adult animated show Apple has announced. However, there is no release date yet. The comic began in 2019, and it follows a group of blue aliens that comment on human life in a strange, almost Thor-like dialogue. You can check out the comics over here.
