Received this case this morning and wanted to provide a quick review before class.
Well stitched, durable, incredibly thin. Funny that youtube review said the case smelled good because the leather actually does smell pretty good.
The case looks real sleek and professional when closed. Looks real sharp with the edges of my icarbon skin exposed as well.
The sleep/wake functions as it should, didn't put my ipad to sleep with the back flap turned around.
With the tension provided from the cover the ipad sits real stable in the provided positions.
There's actually so much tension my ipad wouldn't even reach the locking clasp when I tried to reach a typing position.
But it does almost reach and sits fairly steady even without resting on anything.
This will probably all change when the cover starts to break in.
I didn't experience a dramatic bounce in typing as in the youtube review,
but it could be just me considering I don't apply that much pressure when typing on the ipad.
My only gripe, which I feel kind of dumb for not realizing before, is you have to remove the ipad from the first to clips every time you want to stand it up.
Not the biggest chore but having owned the incase book jacket for a short while it was nice being able to just open the case and stand my ipad up without having to unlatch it.
It wouldn've been nice if the case just slid out but you really have to pry out the corners every time.
I really wanted to love this case but I'm not sure if I can get use to dealing with those two corners.
I'll try and get some pictures up later today.
