Touch Cover 2The cover you can type on just got better. It’s thinner and lighter with backlit keys, so you can work in all lighting conditions. We also massively increased the number of sensors in Touch Cover, from 80 to 1,100, for a better overall typing experience. You can also use touch gestures across the keys and touchpad.
Type Cover 2
The same super-thin, lightweight design of the original Type Cover, but now backlit and available in Cyan, Magenta, Purple and Black in the coming months. The Type Cover 2 has a keyboard, function keys (F1–F12), Windows shortcut keys, media controls and a pressure-sensitive touchpad that supports touch gestures.

This way, you can type from the sofa while your Surface is plugged into a projector or TV, or lean back in your chair and type on your lap while Surface sits on your desk.
