just wondering if folks could showcase (and otherwise discuss) cases for the ipad 2. i've got an ipad 2 on order and would like to have a case ready, but i'm really not blown away by the selections i'm seeing.

care to share?
 
I am currently using a Timbuk2 sleeve that was made for the iPad 1. What I like is that it actually fits the iPad 2 with the Smart Cover on. I actually wrap a cleaning cloth around the edge as I pack the iPad 2 in and it still fits great. Here is an image..

You can find lots, and lots of info/pictures/reviews on cases and other accessories HERE!
Yep. Shouldn't this thread be in that area too? I'm not sure if a moderator will move it or what the process is to get it moved.

http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-20042126-1.html?tag=mncol;title has a roundup but unfortunately, Cnet has few reviews. http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/reviews/review_grades/search&category=349&order=entry_date+desc/ is a place to look for reviews.
 
I have a Griffin case. It's not the real thin one. That one seemed too flimsy. The one I have is about right. Kind of has a weird smell though. They make a leather one that might have a better smell but it is 20 bucks more and it was not available when I bought mine.
