Any Brits found a UK based supplier of this case?
I was browsing for the case and one of my firefox plugins showed me this:
http://www.onsale.com/p/product~dpno~8058227~pdp.gaifbha;jsessionid=29252B552FC0EAC92033E692BC47DF3F
Have never order from the site but the price looks good.
Okay, i've spent an evening with the case. Here's what I like and don't like.
Likes: The case seems to hold the iPad in place very well, it doesn't shift of move at all.
The case is extremely sturdy in typing and media mode. It does have a little "wobble" but nothing major. It holds the position well.
The case is very well constructed. I can see it loosening up a tad with use, again, nothing major. It appears it's going to hold up well.
Dislikes: As I suspected the strap can get annoying. Best thing to do when using the iPad , tuck the strap.
It's microfiber, so it tends to pick up dust and dirt on occasion. Although, it's much better in this regard than the Apple case.
Oddities : the case if not properly secured with the strap will not fully cover the iPad, as the OP stated. It fully covers the iPad if the strap is properly secured.
All in all, it's a keeper. It's not going back. IMO, it's the best case going for one that allows typing and media modes/stands.
Adster and Crackbone-
Thanks for the detailed posts (and amazing pictures adster)... almost to the level of the Gizmodo iphone 4 dissection/description!
One question I had-- does the case feel like it is cardboard or more like plastic inside the microfiber lining. In other words, if you bent the case, you think it would snap and break or just bend. Plastic would be stronger if the thing fell. Carboard would offer no protection to the glass screen in a fall and it won't hold up over time.
Thanks!
Amazing review. I have a question, does the way the iPad snaps into the corners suggest that they'll scratch the iPad?
Looks like Provantage is on backorder, so going with macmall instead.
$37.99 + $5.99 priority shipping.
I ordered from MacMall yesterday and its in my hometown and out for delivery already..yayyy!!!! Too bad I sent my wifi back for a 3g unit![]()
Ordered one from onsale.com for $40 2 day shipped. They said they expect to get them in stock on friday and will ship immediately. I used to order here years ago so I trust it more than some of those other ones listed above.
