Those pictures made me really consider getting a white iPad and a black smart cover :D
 
How do you change the color of the iPad in the selector to white?
Not that I'm going to buy one, being a cheap bastid, but just wondering (;

Edit: Figured it out. If I squint, this almost looks like yellow!

As much as I have wanted a red cover, that note about "some color may wear off during use" makes me wary about the leather ones. Why Apple can't make all of the colors in both materials is beyond me. Why the cheaper material has to be all Easter egg colors is also baffling. Alas, I think I'm going to go with a green one. As much as I'd like a red one, the green one is cheaper and will hold up better if I get it wet.

LOOOOL

I'm getting the white iPad with the Grey Smart Cover. Yum.

Actually, I'm not sure if I'll by the Smart Cover until I see what other cases surface. I'm really concerned about handling the Smart Cover on the go and if it'll leak any color to the white bezel. :eek:
 
Navy looks nice :p $70/$40 though? If I end up getting the iPad 2 I'll probably go with a third party case.

EDIT: I think they make the nicer colours the leather ones/more expensive on purpose :(

This is the only way to get both sides of the cover to be the same color (unless you pick leather). I think grey is the best one because of that. All other colors look really weird as soon as you pick it up off the iPad. People keep forgetting that there is two sides to the cover for some reason.

When you pick a PU cover, consider that you are picking _______ (your color) and grey.

So Blue and Grey as an example of one combination. Below is what Grey and Grey would look like.
