The Official Ipad 3 Accessories Thread

Pad and Quill have some interesting cases. When closed it looks like a book. I am leaning towards the Octavo.

Thanks! I will check them out and add them to the list!

My Yoobao iPad 2 case does not work with my iPad 3. The magnets are not strong enough (or are in the wrong place) to lock/wake my iPad 3. Very disappointed, because I like that case.

Thanks, note taken!

Ok based on your recommendation I'm gonna purchase a green one to match my cover. I had one I blue for my iPad 2 but I gave that iPad to my daughter

I'd wait until Speck has a confirmed model for the 3rd gen if you're going to spend the money, but that's just me.

Figured I would share my set up. I really wanted a keyboard case but clamcase is too expensive. I'm not really digging zaggs new design on the 3's keyboard case. So... Something that protects the back and keeps it raised up.

I took tOSU's recommendation, so thank you on that

Belkin snap cover paired with a smart cover. Paid 29 for the snap cover and 39 for the smart cover from Best Buy.
(the snap cover is made for the 2. Yes it works and it has been added to the list when tosu reported that)

For the keyboard... Still debating on the apple Bluetooth keyboard or Amazon Basics Bluetooth keyboard.

Photos of the edges. The first photo is the smaller edge that JUST fits. It is a snug fit.

How much is that back cover?

I paid $29 for it

I am using a Smart cover but wanted a simple, clear back cover for my new iPad - the Targus Vucomplete fits perfectly (states that it is for iPad 3rd generation)
Bought it in the UK at John Lewis.

I found this case here in the forum when I purchased by original iPad and loved the rustic look and feel of the case by SaddleBackLeather. I see he has a iPad2/New iPad case too although I am not sure how well it fits as I have only dealt with the original iPad, but I love the look, craftmanship and feel of my old one. Trying to decided if I should pull the trigger and go with this one for my new iPad.

I had a CaseCrown leather case for my iPad2. My new iPad fits in it perfectly and the magnetic wake/sleep function works just fine. These cases go for $15.20 on eBay and will work well with the new iPad. They're as good as any $40 case I've handled.

The camera hole fits right?
