Leather/Faux Folio Case for new Ipad

So trying to find an inexpensive leather folio case for iPad. Would love to have all around protection and would love for it to be available on Amazon (gift cards). Just so many out there that hard to tell what is good and what is crap.

you're gonna have to go with teh generic brand and hope they fit but here are 3 options:

Minisuit - http://www.amazon.com/MiniSuit-Appl...UTF8&coliid=IKZOQFXK73QYQ&colid=1E4YIY9UO4ZOJ


Invellop - http://www.amazon.com/INVELLOP-BLAC...UTF8&coliid=IDK0RYCN0M27W&colid=1E4YIY9UO4ZOJ


Casecrown - http://www.amazon.com/CaseCrown-Cov...TF8&coliid=I1FTLQ4BAR1JYA&colid=1E4YIY9UO4ZOJ


For what it's worth, Invellop used to sell that case for 14.99 plus shipping and they jacked up the price on everyone for the ipad 3. In an email to them, they claimed it was a temporary sale but that price was the same dating back to February according to people who pruchased it on here.

Minisuit comes out to be the cheapest. I'm actually interested in this case the most out of the 3 but I was hoping to find out how good the magnets are at keepign the lid closed before buying it.

I might be the only one, but I don't like the "smart cover" design. That's why looking for a folio style design. Like the Yaboo (sp?) but not sure if the one on Amazon will fit the new ones.

oh yeah. i definitely like the smart cover design. Those cases aren't for you then. You can check out something like the Toblino case instead. Or the Marware CEO Hybrid. That's the case I had for the ipad 2. Love it. great case...as is the Toblino case. They both add a little bit of weight though...I was hoping I could find something that didn't weight the thing down as much and didn't add as much thickness.

Right now I'm looking at the Macally cases and waiting to hear about them when they're released. Not sure if those are out of your price range.

I really like these sorts of slim, unobtrusive cases that don't cover the border of the iPad. Since I bought a white iPad I want the white to show. I just wish these cases came in more colors other than black. Anyone know of a case like this in like maybe a brown leather or some other unique look?
