Griffin iPad 2 Case at Best Buy

[jedolley]

Just so we're clear, which ones suck? I see a 3 of them at http://www.griffintechnology.com/device_types/ipad/devices/ipad2 which aren't sleeves.

I see a mention of "Griffin Elan Form Slim for iPad 2" and another for "Elan Folio Slim". Any other Griffin iPad 2 cases suck or are good?

I believe the one at Best Buy is the Elan Folio Slim. I saw it at my BB, but the material felt really really cheap. I have to say that some of the ebay junk seems like better quality than this.

Well, I recommend you do NOT get the Elan Folio Slim. I just put up my review here:

Thanks! It looks like I'll be steering clear of that one.

Glad to help a fellow Seattle-ite out.

Told you guys.. Great review! It's not the first time Griffin and others rushed out cases to bank on poor customers.

Thanks for the heads up. I was liking the Griffin case because of the leather look, slim, and has a built in stand, but I'll stay clear. Is there anything similar to this Griffin case to look at that you'd recommend?

From the looks of it, the Yoobao case is everything the Griffin case SHOULD have been. Even has Smart Cover compatibility so it turns the iPad 2 on and off. Still waiting on mine, but will review it as soon as it comes in.
