Just received the new Yoobao black leather iPad 2 case (latest generation) yesterday afternoon. The smell of this case is really bad! Initially thought it was just a very strong leather smell, but after having it my home for a several hours, it really reeks. Seems to be some kind of chemical smell. Perhaps it is the chemicals used to treat the leather or dye the leather black. In any case, I am very concerned that it might even be toxic. Remember the toxic drywall issues that came out of China a few years back? The Yoobao leather case also comes from China! I went back online this morning to check if I have received the so called "latest generation" case that corrected this odor issue. Based on all that I have read, and the pics included, it appears that I have the latest generation case. Its too bad that this case smells so bad. If Yoobao can correct this issue, it really will be a great iPad 2 case.
Will be returning this nasty smelling case asap!
