The thinness of the apple case is why I think I like that over the icase or the portenzo
I totally agree with this argument. Icase is feature-rich and versatile but if you really appreciate the thinness of iPad, stay away from it. It simply makes the iPad unnecessarily heavy. Have you done reading on iPad with a case on? It is a pain! Get a twelve south compass stand instead. The compass stand will definitely work with any future iPads.
