can i take the keyboard out without effecting the ability to close correctly

The keyboard can be removed and your tablet will remain in the protective leather enclosure. As long as the velcro retaining strap is in place the tablet stays tight. On the negative side, don't expect the keyboard to last long before the keys start failing to respond! I got two of them and one of them didn't last much more than two weeks before they started to fail! I like the protective portfolio but not impressed with the keyboard.

Yes, very nicely! I loved this purchase, the case closes tightly with or without keyboard. Sadly the Asus tablet I bought it for went kaflooey and Asus has been a nightmare to deal with so be real careful! We have 4 tablets in house all with different cases, this is BY FAR the best.

You can, and it will close, but as it seems to be designed for the keyboard, it may put unwanted stress on the binding.

The keyboard is attached via magnetic force- it is easy on- easy off- When one closes it without the keyboard in, it is just a bit looser- no problems for me with this case- love it.

yes you could take it out but it also depends on your size of tablets that you're usingthe thickness of it it might feel a little flimsy when she tried at first but it should be okay

Yes you can remove the keyboard and there is no problem closing the case. But let me point this out as well After about 35 to 40 days the keyboard stopped working.And this was beyond the point where it could be returned or replaced, so I just bit the bullet and took the loss. When you make a brand new purchase you just expectthe item to last more that 35 to 40 days!

The keyboard is removable and stays in place by magnets. Therefore you can take it off and leave behind if you don't want to use it at any time.

No. I've not had a problem with that. The magnetic closer keeps it in place well. Plus the keyboard is removable if you worry about that.

Yes, a couple of ways. One of the function keys (the best way to turn on and off while typing as needed) or, if you want it off permanently, it can be disabled in the DEVICE MANAGER or in the CONTROL PANEL under the MOUSE / POINTER Icon.

Robin -- With the keyboard attached there is a snap closure; without it, nothing keeps it closed other than the cover's weight. I have not found this to be a problem using my Asus tablet only. --- John

Yes, once you open the keyboard, it locks in place. Not a hard lock in place, but enough for when you are ready to stop using it and close it, you will have to use some pressure to close it.

Have not seen the photos to which you refer, but my keyboard has the wrist rest TOWARDS the user. There is a magnet in the wrist rest to shut the Nook HD+ down to sleep mode when the case is closed. The entire keyboard, of course, does pull out to be comfortable. Interesting caveat: If you flip the keyboard around backwards, the magnet will also shut down the Nook, same as folding forward. The work around is to flip the keyboard backwards (twist it 180degrees), wrist rest toward the 'screen', then fold back to use in simple tablet mode. Not perfect, but vastly reduces accidental sleep modes. You can also take the keyboard completely off, but I am afraid to misplace it or leave it behind.

Yes, the keyboard is attached by two magnets and will stay in place and not interfere with keyboard when closed. If you leave the keyboard attached and close it though, you have to sometimes wiggle the case a bit to get the flap and its magnets to line up and close securely.

No, it isn't. I also don't use the pull out for the keyboard, it makes me too far away from the computer and I can't read the screen.

No. Keyboard has to be detached to put the tablet in the case. You can open the case and fold it back and attach the keyboard but you can't fold the case closed.

I will suggest you to leave power off when you finish using the keyboard. But do not keep on and off too often during the short period otherwise the sensibility may be affected.

You do NOT have to use the keyboard holder if you do not want to. It will NOT impact the desk in any way shape or form if you leave it off. I love my little desk and am using it as we speak.

Yes. You may want to remove the keyboard when doing this, but you don't have to. As long as you turn it off it should be fine either way.

There's no "back" to the stand & the tray sits high enough that I think it should be okay w/o removing it. I can slide my full size keyboard in and out with no problems.

Is there a way to get the actual keys off the keyboard without breaking them to swap them out so they match once I change the values?

You can't remove the keyboard but you can fold it back when it's not being used!
