$110 for the soft keyboard cover, $120 for the hard keyboard cover. They think $10 difference is big enough for giving customers confusion of choice.
It's still the same company that released 6 editions of Vista.

Who says they're trying to confuse anyone? The touch cover is the primary offering, which is why it's in all the ads. The type cover is a secondary offering, intended for people who want a more traditional keyboard and are willing to tolerate the extra thickness. The $10 difference presumably covers the difference in manufacturing costs.
I guess you'd be happier for some reason if they didn't offer the type cover?
