Im kinda diggin the brown for that reason...the black and tan contrast is cool to me.
Please, can someone weigh the Switcheasy Canvas and post the results here? Thanks!
I should get mine today (hopefully). I'll weigh it and post this evening, along with my first impressions.
I ordered a charcoal one on Saturday, got an email yesterday letting me know they were out of them and will have more to ship out in 4 days...
Annoying that I was told 2 days later that they didn't have any in stock, considering I ordered when I did so I would get the case before my iPad... but the personal email I got from customer service was nice. I love switcheasy, bought multiple cases from them back when i was an iPhone user.

It really is a fantastic case...loving my charcoal version. I hear they sold out of black/charcoal already! Good for them, glad they nailed a much better iPad 2 case compared to there iPad 1 case offerings.
Also, I took a quick pic of the "Typing position" for this case...

Wow, that looks like a bit of an extreme typing angle...anyone else? I think it should be a bit flatter...
Would you mind posting a couple pictures of the gray with the white iPad? That's the combo I'm interested in. Thx
They've got it at the highest angle in that pic, but you can pull it forward or push it back to decrease (flatten) it.
For those of us who are awating orders here is what I just got told...

Due to the stiffness of the nylon cover, you can actually make it flatter and it works just as well. As you can see, there isn't a notch or anything holding that cover in spot (re: like the original Apple iPad case). But yeah, since its so stiff, it can hold it in whatever typing angle you like really...
Like Madat stated, pull it forward or push it back to lower it... =)

Sorry, I tried taking some pics with my phone but they turned out crappy.
The color is really a warm grey, and sort of like dark khaki. Did I just rhyme?
Hey madat, would you mine measuring the depth of the case with it closed and the flap on the back. thnanks!
It's .75" closed. When you say flap on the back, do you mean open with the front cover folded over? .75" as well if I crease the fold.
I installed mine with a LuckyLabs skin on the back. This skin took some flak for not extending very far up sides of the iPad 2. I think in this case, it actually helps because it probably doesn't get anywhere near as much in the way of the side contact points of the case and iPad 2.
It's a snug fit and I had to push with moderate force to get the iPad to sit flush against the top of the case. I suspect it will loosen up more with time.
More in a bit.
It seems fine so far. Glossy finish (not matte). Applied in steamy bathroom. no visual artifacts I can see. No adhesive - static adhesion. Will post more impressions if I see anything that compromises display quality.
Please, can someone weigh the Switcheasy Canvas and post the results here? Thanks!
13.8 ounces without iPad 2 in it.
Mine shipped from Tracy CA. Ordered Monday, received Tuesday (I'm in San Jose, so it wasn't much of a trip!)
