I agree the weight isn't horrible but for me I just don't like the feel of it at all. As to being careful not to bump the screen, believe me I worked hard at being as careful asI could be, but it happened all too many times for me. Plus I don't like the fact that you just can't open the cover and fold the keyboard away behind the iPaf like you would be able to do with a normal case or cover. If I want to just take a quick look at say my calendar, its awkward to do. Also removing the iPad from the cover modded and dropping it into the holding slot is also clumsy. There are very nice easy to use keyboard/ cover combinations tat work exactly like the cover, and will allow the iPad just to be propped up like a monitor to use the keyboard - they are far nicer in my opinion and some are less expensive, but I wasn't aware of them when I bought this keyboard. Sorry I did.
