Anybody ordering the "Drop" Series from Gumdrop?

It seems like overkill but I guess it's good for people who are prone to dropping their iPad or use it on construction sites, etc.

And those of us with toddlers, haha. I forgot to mention that's why i'm looking for better protection for the ipad.

I've had an iPad 2 for two weeks now and other than one keynote presentation it has entirely been used by my toddler daughter (age 3).

I've installed a skin to protect against scratches and a screen protector but otherwise I don't feel the need for extra protection since she handles it only on the sofa or when watching a movie in which case it will be stood up on the coffee table using the smartcover. The added bulk, I think, would make it more difficult for her to handle.

I thought that instead of dropping $40 or more on a cover (though essentially I already did much more than that with a skin, a screen protector, and a smart cover) I'm better of with a squaretrade warranty. I would have foregone the screen cover but her fingers like to pick that cute little nose so I'm wiping down the screen all the time -- better to do that to the screen cover than the glass.

Thanks a lot for posting. That makes me think quite a bit. I just assume I need to cover that thing air tight to protect it from our 1 1/2 year old's handling. I got square trade so I may be overdoing it. I'll think about it some more.
 
I order one at the end of April, they keep pushing forward the shipping date .. so much for overnight shipping.

I had the trident case for the Ipad and loved it. Who know maybe Trident will make one for the Ipad before gumdrop ships thier case.
 
Just got the Military one in today, love it - will post pics or vid very soon. Great case
