Has anybody picked up any scratches where the incase covers the bezel? I suppose maybe dirt could get in there and get smashed in between the iPad and case? I have a zagg sitting on my counter but Im really loving the naked screen. Does anybody have a pic with the zagg installed? How much does it distort the picture?
 
I have a skin on the back of my iPad, but it's not like dirt gets down there anyway. It's not like a phone you keep in your pocket, for me anyway. I've taken it out and haven't seen any debris.
 
You'll be fine. Just use some common sense and wipe it down once in a while. I noticed for my iphone 4 bumper, it held debris in there but didn't cause major ugly scratches. The marks may from the plastic bumper itself. So for the incase book jacket, the inner is soft lined to prevent scratches and it doesn't have a hard plastic lining that directly rubs on your ipad.

With my iPad 1, I had the apple case and lots of debris go inside but no scratches! Again, I think it's because of the soft case/lining that is in contact with the ipad. I just took it out of the case and with a microfiber cloth, dry wiped it down and if I was really worried, I used the air spray can for computers inside the case. You must also be conscious of how you're handling your stuff and if you do things calmly and think before you throw your ipad on the couch or table, then you'll be at a less risk of causing any type of damage.

I used to have the BSE on my iphone 3GS and that collected lint. The ipad may be different... My ipad 1 was naked except for the apple case and I plan to keep my ipad 2 naked without a skin as well, except for the smart cover and this book jacket.
 
I got this case from Best Buy yesterday, and I just can't recommend it to anyone, and I will be taking mine back. The stand just sucks. It keeps falling on it's own. I need something more reliable.

Thats what I saw on the youtube reviews also. The Cygnett Lavish cases look better at holding the ipad up in the angled positions.
 
I don't have any problems with my grooves. All three notches work fine.

Maybe I got the lucky one that works properly?

I've found that my Cygnett Lavish does a much better job of holding my iPad 2 upright than my Incase Convertible Book jacket did with my iPad 1.
 
I got Incase book jacket for iPad 2, and got in BSE

Alright everyone. So I have the blue poly smart cover, this incase book jacket for ipad 2, and now I just got in the Best Skin's Ever back skin only for my AT&T 3G device. I'm sort of deciding whether or not it was actually worth buying and if I should actually apply it on my ipad since I plan to use the incase case while at work and school, and the smart cover while at home/school (while being careful). :confused:

You definitely don't need the BSE on the back of your iPad if you're going to keep it in the Incase jacket. I kept my iPad 1 in my Incase jacket with no additional protection and it was literally in perfect condition when I sold it to get the iPad 2.
 
I had this for the original Ipad its nice but would make the Ipad 2 way too thick, I'm looking for a thin solution
 
I'm returning this case today and replacing it with a cheaper ebay cause I found.
Not that there was anything majorly wrong with it.

Very well constructed and great level of protection.
It was just a little bulky for my taste and didn't have a sleep/wake function.
 
I think this may be the thinnest professional looking, minor impact protective case you'll get. You can always take it out and use the smart cover whenever you want like I am. So I think you'd have the best of two worlds. You can still enjoy the slim factor. :D

Even if I plan to take it out of the incase case and use my smart cover at home and sometimes at school? I apologize, but it's confusing aint it? :p
 
My Best Buy had both the "Incase Book Jacket" and the "Targus Versavu/360"...I went with the Targus 360...a little on the heavy side, but other than that, seems ideally functional...props up well, sturdy, doesn't cover the bezel, nice feel etc etc...no complaints


EDIT...just noticed that although the front flap does go all the way back for one-handed use, it blocks the camera hole on the back and would be a pain to use in the case with camera. Ill sacrifice the use of the camera while in the case to keep the sturdy platform for viewing angles.
