I use valcros in my Air Force flight suits. After 3 years of washing and taking on/off patches, they still work fine. Have you ever had valcro that stopped sticking? You can always get the fuzz out if that's the problem.

I have ordered the maroo case, I love the individuality of it! and it seems perfect for me
Check out early days of a band called limp bizkit lol.

lol
 
anyone with canvas can tell me if the shell of it scratches the back of ipad ?
because i was thinking on buying SGP Full (Lcd + back films) but its $33 and only the film is 21 (without shipping).
And another question is :The canvas fits with a back protector ?


:apple: Thanks guys.:apple:
 
I cant see how it would. I have ghost armor on the back of mine installed before i knew which case i was going to buy. After getting this case i would have skipped the back film had i known.

No scratching at all in my time with the case. The inside while not lined is very smooth.
 
Hey psychonaut, just wondering if you happened to try and remove the iPad from the hard shell case. Did you have any success?

Yes I have done it many times since it's my main case I use. I have to take it off often to film other case review videos. It can be a bit tricky but if you work one corner at a time it pops off pretty easily.
 
Just purchased an iPad 2 a couple days ago and I am so glad I found this thread. Just ordered myself the 'charcoal' canvas. Now I have to return the Apple smart cover ;)
 
how is the screen protector comes with the case?
Do I need to buy a sepreate one? :confused:

It's a crystal clear type, if you want anti-glare or anti-fingerprint you do need to get another one. Otherwise, at least give the free one a chance. You might love it and save $20 or so. It's the same one (Pure Protect) SwitchEasy sells for $15 seperately. Here's a review of the one for the iPhone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssFTW0eUcRQ

Also, I normally don't care for those antiglare because you'll get rainbow colors around pixels with AG and AF type protectors.

Also, hdfan posted this on page 9:
Screen protector seems really good to me, and no adhesive, so you can reapply again if you mess up.

I had the Power Support Crystal on backorder, but glad I cancelled it. It may be better, but this is perfectly fine with me. I don't see any optical effects/degradation.

Just got an email from SwitchEasy saying that there is a delay in the product replenishment and my order will ship in 4 days.

Has anyone got any confirmation email like this at all? Mind you I put in my order yesterday afternoon.

Thanks!

I ordered Friday night, April 15th. All I have received still is my payment confirmation from paypal. Nothing at all from SwitchEasy.

Edit: Additionally, I just checked my credit card. The payment is still pending.

Same here. I also ordered Friday night and haven't gotten anything yet. I hope there's not a shortage again.
 
Just got the case today. First of all let me say, great job Switcheasy. Looks like a very well designed case. I agree with all of the reviews.

I do have one small issue though.

The case is very tight right of the package. So tight in fact that the clasp that closes the case is digging in to the plastic as I close it. Right now the gray plastic has a gouge in it from opening/closing and I'm wondering how much worse this is going to get. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions to avoid this? I've tried bending it, but it's pretty tight.

I shot them an email, we'll see what they say. Other than that. Good stuff.

I also got the case today and it's amazing so far!! It definitely makes it heavier than my original smart cover / bodyguardz combo, but it's well worth the trade off IMO.

Psychonaut, what did you find was the best way to remove the ipad from the case?
 
Got mine today too. Definitely like it more than my Speck HD case but agree the clasp is TIGHT! add more weightthan the Speck but overall I prefer it much more and I liked the Speck to begin with.

Easiest way for me is to pop two corners out and the rest of the iPad will lift out from there. If you think there is value in a removal video I would be happy to shoot one for you all.
