The vaja clone looks nice but I don't know why I'm not so attracted to it. I think it's the overly round front cover. I dont know..
Got a tip for us?

Cases that don't cover bezel? [iPad 2]

It looks like I am going with this unless something comes really nice before they have it in stock which is about two weeks from now.

I doubt this has the sleep/wake function but I just bought one of these:

I figure it's worth a shot for $16! So far all the cases I've tried like this were either $40 cases worth $16 or they were bulky.

This looks pretty good case. Don't like the flap in front. Button would've been better but overall it looks good. Does not have the magnet for auto on/off right?
Updated the original post with links =)
Anyone have any luck yet? I'll probably end up going with Treegloo once they finalize their new magnet/latch closures (which is supposedly due by the end of the week). Or maybe Pad and Quill's Octavo if they put out more color options. But maybe I'll pick up a nice leather folio in the future... who knows.
Cheers,

No luck here. Thanks for starting this thread, though-- I'm looking for exactly the same thing (with the added requirement that it be available in colors other than black!), so it's been really useful.
I'm currently using the yoobao case, which has finally after six days of airing out become just about stench-free, but I'd really like better quality leather and the bezel even less covered. Waiting now to see what the Chinao case will be like, and hoping someone will make a case like the Vaja Libretto for closer to $100. If not, my birthday is next month, and I may just treat myself. Thinking about the Treegloo or Portenzo, too.
Good luck in your search!

I don't know why they just can't change the specs on this one to fit the iPad 2. For me (and my original iPad) it was perfect.
I have faith, though. This thread seems to be showing that there is a quickly expanding list of cases that don't hide the iPad bezel. Thanks.

Both look pretty good. Want one in black too and something that does not add bulk. Hope they're thin in person.
I tried the non-leather version of this, the Premium Kickstand, but it was a bit bulky for me:
Incipio Executive Premium Kickstand: http://www.myincipio.com/iPad-2-Cas...-Executive-Premium-Kickstand-Leather-Case.asp
Other people like it, though. No sleep/wake functionality.

This looks NICE. And instant shipping..hope so see a video review soon. I always wonder how the angles hold up in the notches..
Oh man, this is my first taste of regret since I pre-ordered the Powis iCase. Still over a month before that one is supposed to ship.
Ordered this today.

SGP Stores make a nice Ipad case and I understand that the case for the Ipad2 is expected in the next couple of weeks.

Did you buy it from that seller? Can you post up the link, looks really nice!
No, that is not it. Chinao's Vaja clone for iPad 2 hasn't been released yet and there are no pictures available anywhere of it.
Here are some pictures I just took of their Vaja Agenda clone for iPad 1 which I purchased recently. I really like it and I'm hoping the Vaja clone (w/ sleep/wake) they produce for iPad 2 will be just as good.
Yup, debating between this and a Portenzo/Treegloo/Octavo... maybe I'll get both lol
List updated by the way! Lots of choices out there for non-bezel-covering cases apparently
Wow this is so similar to the vuscape!! I wish I could buy this; not available in Canada
