I"m just not seeing an expansion joint on the front folder part. It would have to be there with the thing about throwing keys & lip gloss in there.... but it could totally change the look of the case and I want to see that first.
I ordered 1 Apple Case with my Daughters - figuring that we would either go with it, or just have something while exploring options!
I'm not sure you will get much of a finer tip. That can be controlled with the software and how much it is recognizing.
It really truly hasn't been an issue....

It's advertised as a 'sleeve'. I think it would be safe to assume that except for thin flat items, one would be SOL.
This is the picture of the wallet deluxe that I was talking about:
It does look different than the clutch, so I'll have to see what the final result looks like. The new pictures of the clutch are different than ones that have been previously posted too.
Macally and iLuv INSTOCK!!!
It looks like some of the Macally iPad accessories are now available. Their status has changed from "Coming Soon" to "Buy Now".
http://www.macally.com/EN/Product/ipad.asp
I especially like their BookStand case http://www.macally.com/EN/Product/ArticleShow.asp?ArticleID=320. Standard shipping seems a bit high ($8), but i may give it a shot.
Also, a couple of the iLuv accessories are also showing up in stock on their site and Amazon.

Amazon prices seem much lower than iLuv MSRP, but the descriptions also don't match the item (or atleast the one's i've seen) example below.

I went ahead and ordered the Macally Bookstand. I'll provide pictures when I get it if anyone is interested.
Well, assuming they didn't get their hands on a mold, fabrication, or an actual iPad...
The bookstand is a bit different in its design than some of the other folio cases I have seen for the iPad. As you can see in the picture it has 4 spots (on each corner) where the iPad I assume either snaps/held in. Then the only thing to account for is the curved back which can be done by using a back that has a little give (like suede). The other cases seem to be designed where you have to slide in the iPad into a sleeve which is attached to the folio. It seems like to me that would more likely require the actual device for an exact fit.
This is completely speculation on my part and I could be ordering a piece of crap, in that case I will return it.
Either way, I'm your guinea pig and will have pictures once it arrives and more once I get my iPad (if anyone is interested).
Yes please, in a way its just like the apple one however not branded, and looks leather too. I want a case like this for work, and its between this one, the happyowl wallet and another one I saw I liked..

I am wondering if they will have some of these in stock at the Apple retail stores and other places on April 3rd?
Uh, measure it? Just a wild guess
I bet it's not that simple.. They need to mold it for an exact sizes.
Macally is showing a 10w dual usb charger for charging ipad and iphone at the same time. It's not available yet but looks good:

What happened to the Quirky Cloak Undercover that used to be on the main page summary?

The official Apple case is the best still. It's actually cheaper than a lot of items o this thread. It's mulitfunctional, it protects and also props up your iPad. You can stand it up or leave it slightly angled on a flat surface for typing. And it has the

That would be much appreciated. I'm interested in whether it's real suede and the dimensions; I have a small vertical bag I'd like to use.
Crikey, that MacAlly bookstand is ugly (no offense to anyone who has purchased). And expensive considering they don't even list the materials, or not that I can see; and more so with the unreasonable shipping charges. I think for that price point I'd far rather go with the official Apple case.
Still wishing futilely that the Quirky Cloak was available NOW.
