Ipad 2 cases

[blessed]

Well, I'm sad again. Treegloo said their current case will definitely not support my Smart Cover. I'm waiting to see if I can special order one. So, for now I've taken off my "happy dance shoes"

Trident Cases for IPAD2

Trident cases will be available in a month or 2. We have one for our phone.

I have this product from incase. I got it a Best Buy. It was wrongly marked at 39.00, should have been 59.00 so i got it for the cheaper price. I really like this cover. It is called the "incase book jacket."

I have the Targus 360 and love it so far. The rotating bezel sit flush with the back of the case. There are not marks on my ipad2 from it so far.

Thats good to hear.

My other concern was whether bits get inside the opening where the apple logos shows.

I think the one I am looking at in Amazon is a cheaper version of the Targus - fake leather vs real leather.

Do you find it secure in its little clips?

I think if you were that concerned about debris getting into the opening I would get a clear cover to protect the back. So far I havent had any issues though.

Once the iPad is in the case it does a decent job of holding it. I'd say 90% of both of the long sides are holding it in with at the lip of the case. The other 10% is the opening for the volume and mute/orientation lock switch.

I would be wary of holding it just by the cover side and swinging it back and forth, but that's just me being overly cautious. It would probably hold just fine!

Thank you for your comments.

I have pre-ordered the case from Amazon, but it will be a week or two before it comes I think.

Also, as you suggested I have ordered a full bodyguardz kit from the US just incase the case rubs. It will also mean I can use it out of the case when at home and not worry when I put it down on the table.

They look very nice, but I would be worried about the sides being exposed. I think most of my worry is about resale when the time comes to change..... But I must stop and enjoy my lovely new gadget!!!

I like the strap on the back setup. Then add a nice case..

Cover options

I got the Targus 360 and I like how you can go from landscape to portrait with ease. In addition, they have 2 different angles that it can rest on. The down side is that the smart cover I bought is now in a bag just in case I want to take it out of the Targus 360.

I also got the Skinomi screen protector and carbon back. I love the back carbon fiber look, but I freeekin got one small speck of lint caught on the inside of the screen protector. It is driving me nuts and I am seconds from ordering a new one, but I hear that this is almost always going to happen when putting on a screen protector. The smart cover will work with just the Skinomi on it. (Skinomi's customer service sucks - FYI)

Hope that helps, good luck

I am using an xgear smart case enhancer with my smart case. Love it so far.

I have the XGear Smart Cover Enhancer on order. It ships the 18th of this month. I got the clear on because it allows you to show off the iPads good looks rather than hiding it. There are pics and videos of the case and how it works with Apple's Smart Cover. Can't wait to get mine.

Do the corner fixings make any marks on the screen protector and does the extra thickness of the carbon back make it a tighter fit? I have peered a full bodyguardz kit for mine and I hop they all work together ok.

Thanks
