Type Cover
Type Cover is a slim version of a traditional keyboard with moving keys and trackpad buttons. It gives you the
speed and feel of a laptop keyboard.
Just like the Touch Cover keyboard, Type Cover magnetically clicks into place and doubles as a cover for your
Surface. With Type Cover you go from tablet to laptop in an instant.
Trackpad
Both Touch Cover and Type Cover include a trackpad that you can use like
a mouse. Just like a laptop, you can drag your finger on the trackpad to
move the on-screen pointer. The trackpad also has left and right buttons.
For example, press the lower-right area on the trackpad when you want to
right-click.
