Anyone know when this case is supposed to come out?

Looks perfect.

You want to put a sleek icon of modern industrial design into a leather covered cardboard folder with a giant chrome belt buckle that says JOY?

I want to put a sleek easily damaged icon of modern industrial design into a case that prevents the front and back, and allows me to stand it up in the ways it is meant to be stood up, and that doesn't smell like cancer as does the targus 360 case.

I've been looking for a leather folio that doesn't cover the bezel, and also has the sleep-wake function... this seems to fit the bill. *bookmarks*

Lol @ smells like cancer. Well I'm looking for the same thing more or less, but history shows that the first cases to come out are usually the ugliest...rushed to market with more thought put into distribution than design. I have a smart cover and a simple slim leather sleeve for now. It will hold me over until something along the lines of the Yoobao slim comes along. That case, while definitely cancer smelling, offered good protection, rock solid angle viewing, and was thin enough to respect the iPad's design.

Any update on this case? I think this is what I'm looking for. I have not found ANY case that you can use the iPad in both positions and have sleep/awake.

Their web site says the expected shipping date is April 30th, so it's unlikely we'll see any feedback until after then.

Has anyone gotten their hands on one of these cases or know if they have started to ship yet?

I'm waiting too but if it doesn't come out soon, I may just have to move on.

It's been listed on Amazon recently but no date given:

Seems relatively stable according to this video:

It's very interesting to see how this company went beyond with the "snap-n-roll." However, it looks odd on the back.

I think the Folio 360 II is out on their website
