I'm in the market for an iPad 2 sleeve. Incase says theirs are coming out in April, but I need one to travel with now. Apple doesn't have any in their store yet either.
Also, has anyone tried fitting their 2s into a 1st gen's sleeve? Incase says their sleeves are "compatible" but, at 2/3s the size, I can imagine there would be a lot of wiggle room.
Thanks for any help!

I picked up an Incase sleeve and it's pretty decent

Incase is sweet
 
I got the incase sleeve at Best Buy for $44.99. It's pretty pricy but it's still nice. It fits perfectly even with the smart cover.

On incase's website, it says it's compatible with the iPad and iPad 2.
 
Picked up an ipad 1 Belkin sleeve at Frys today. Was $15 with a $15 mail in rebate. Pretty good deal if you ask me. Haha. A little loose but it works fine til I get my grove case.
 
I plan to go the smart cover + sleeve way as well. Anyone used a Snupped case? I love how I have the option of custom designing it to match the smart cover... this is what I have in mind for a black iPad w pink case =)

I'd just be curious for anyone's take on the quality?

Picked up the incase sleeve for the Original iPad at BB. Fits iPad 2 perfectly even with the cover on. Really like it.

how much wiggle room is there with the iPad + Smartcover?

This one, in black. No wiggle room whatsoever. I took a couple of pics, but it's pointless because it fits perfectly. :) I can still post them if you want. Also, on bhphoto, it's $29.99 but I wanted it right away.

Also, I bought an incase sleeve, but for 10.2" net books, but while it fit perfectly for width, it was about half an inch too long and a tad too deep so it slid a little, but it was only $20 or so at Target. I returned it.

$5 markup over MSRP. Why?

I also ordered the same exact one. It almost fits the iPad 2 perfect. If I don't like the new incase sleeves they announce in April. I will return this within the 30 day mark. But as of now I love this sleeve a lot and plan on keeping it.
 
RadTech makes a nifty sleeve:

I have one that I had bought for the original iPad and today I discovered that the iPad 2 with the Smart Cover on will fit into this sleeve! Bingo! The RadTech sleeve is very thin and lightweight and rolls up or folds up easily when one needs to stash it somewhere. It's the same fabric as their keyboard protectors and monitor screen cloths. Great stuff -- works a treat for keeping the iPad screen clean!

Also, yes, the Waterfield Designs / SF Bags Muzetto Smart Case will work nicely for the new iPad 2 WITH the Smart Cover attached. I tried it just a few moments ago and was overjoyed to realize this.
