In addition to Pong's ipad case
http://www.pongresearch.com/new-ipad.html

and the Ozaki icoat Slim series
http://ozakiverse.com/products/ipad/icoat-slim-y-plus

now there's a third one, this one from Moshi (ok there are other origami cases too but can't remember them) which is now on sale (at least two of the colors..translucent and white, the black one is not on sale yet)

Moshi differs a bit since it doesn't use a Y-shaped fold like the others but uses an asterisk. it also lacks the smart cover style 4 section fold that the other two has. So while it provides similar style landscape and portrait views, the typing mode is a bit steeper.

I haven't tried either yet but

the Ozaki and Pong, because of their design, seems to suffer from a floppy lid that gets loose easily as seen by Tonopanman's youtube video

So far there's only one review of the Moshi at TechCrunch by John Biggs
http://techcrunch.com/2012/06/21/hands-on-with-the-moshi-iglaze-with-versacover-ipad-case/

I asked him if he could replicate Tonopanman's video using his case and he was kind enough to oblige, so here's the video he sent me that I uploaded on youtube

seems to have stronger magnets to keep it in place, but flop is still there..
