i wasn't planning on using a smart cover, but apple sent one for free, so it's looking a lot more attractive now.

also just bought a cover logic neoprene sleeve off amazon for ~$16 with expedited shipping!
 

Was just at Best Buy, they had Targus Vuscape. Took one out of the box and inserted display ipad 2. It looks as if it will fill the bill. It clips closed and won't open. The ipad 2 slips in and out easily. The stand will work well.
Best Buy had no ipads in stock and clerk said they won't be getting any for awhile.
 
Smartcover is overpriced and half-baked idea at best..I guess if you have invisible shield front and back that would be decent enough. Couple of things about the smart "cover". It picks up all sorts of dirt and dust when you have it folded propping up, then you close and grind all that crap into your screen. Also, it's very cumbersome to get it folded out into the triangle, this takes some practice. Lastly, I always feel like it is going to disconnect being a magnet, regardless of how well it secures to the side.

About the coolest aspect of this is the wake/sleep function, which is also magnet induced. I would say ANY cover you get should have magnet to make this feature work.

To me, there are better choices out there, and the leather version is overpriced. Just my two cents.
 
I'm waiting for the Vaja Case which will hopefully be released soon. Their iPad1 case was awesome!
And it won't be with the Apple cover! Does anyone realize how much dust and dirt the microfiber cover is going to attract when folded into a triangle on the back of the ipad? The outside of the cool triangle is what goes against the screen when unfolded...NOT cool! :-(

Rudyo, did you order your case from Vaja yet? I am wondering what the "true" wait times will be here. I have a feeling they won' t be able to live into to their 35 day handicraft timeframe they list on their site. I they can guarantee 35 days I will order, otherwise I am getting the Marware most likely.

Lemme know what you get. I REALLY like that vaja case for the ipad2, black. Sweet!

Nothing while at home and Waterfield's 11" Muzetto Bag and iPad Smart Case for taking it out and about.

I have not ordered yet. I am still waiting for the 2 piece iVolution like I had for the Ipad 1.
The Libretto is cool, but I really don't like a flap and I don't see me using it as a stand. The way the ivolution front snapped onto the back was SO cool and efficient. To me that is the perfect case

I did look at the pics on the Libretto and am a little disappointed that they had to eliminate covering the corner where the camera and mute switch are. The proximity of the on/off switch, camera, orientation switch and the volume rocker to the corner is just too tight to cover the corner. I see that this isn't possible, but I sure wish that corner could be covered. Tome the corners are the vulnerable parts of the ipad. I dropped my Ipad 1 several times, some right on the corner and the Vaja ivolution protected it every time.
I guess I will just make sure and not drop my Ipad 2 on that specific corner. :)
Also I am not sure how fond I am of the micro fiber interior. I wish they still offered a leather interior in colors.

As far as the 35 days? Well I will wait whatever it takes. The Vaja case has no equal IMHO. I have looked at a ton of other cases...none really appeal to me. I don't want a flap like a book...the Ipad isn't a book...it is a tablet and I want a cover that is totally out of the way.

Keep me posted on what you do.

It's currently in the wrapper still with a smart cover. Until I get my full body shield from best skin ever.

Then when Otterbox releases there defender case, I'll run with that until I get rid of my ipad 2.
 
My naked iPad's only protection will be the new Special Edition black/white DODOcase :cool:
 
Mine is still in the wrapper it came in as well....looks a little ghetto, but it's great protection until I find a case that I like.
 
how about the SGP Argos case? look nice and sleek albeit lacking some basica features.
 
Smart cover, protective screen on front. Have a iPad 1 case works great! Anyone know where or when u can pick up screen protectors for the back?
