10w = faster charging?
No, that's the standard wattage for both iPhone and iPad and higher wattage does not automatically mean the charging goes faster. It depends on the destination more than the source.

Crikey, that MacAlly bookstand is ugly (no offense to anyone who has purchased). And expensive considering they don't even list the materials, or not that I can see; and more so with the unreasonable shipping charges. I think for that price point I'd far rather go with the official Apple case.
Still wishing futilely that the Quirky Cloak was available NOW.
Macally is showing a 10w dual usb charger for charging ipad and iphone at the same time. It's not available yet but looks good:

To each his own as far as looks. I like it better than the Apple case because it's thinner, no larger apple logo, and still has similar configuration as the apple case. As for the material, it does state it is suede.
I agree the Quirky Cloak looks good and if it was coming out anytime soon I may have held off. However, I'm not sold on the whole Quirky experience and will wait to see what users say about the actual product.
I have no qualms about changing out my case later if a better option comes along and I can always sell my old case on ebay or something. I went with the Macally Bookstand because I liked the look and the function and its available now.
I missed the suede part. And sorry, I do agree it's an objective thing. Something about the very light gray and the tan accents bugs me. I think I talked myself into believing that when this item became available to buy they would offer it in different colors. I do want something with that construction type (kickstandish) though. (Heh, I feel like we've been having a similar conversation for a few weeks now...don't these people WANT my money!? Where is my perfect case?)

Anyone know what happened to the hardgraft guys?? They took their site down right before the iapd comes out? That was the end all be all case.
Has anyone thought that many people would want to have the fold over so that the iPad is not in landscape (movie) mode, but portrait mode?
Like if you were typing on a bluetooth keyboard and using iLife or some new MS Word app.
Someone needs to make a kickstand or a iPad cover that can let it stand up in either way- just like photo frames that can be horizontal or vertical.
Here is one on ebay-- ugly yes, but in vertical portrait mode for those that are looking for one.

This one really looks el cheapo.
Waiting to hear on shipment, got email last monday saying I would hear in 5 days. Knowing my look they will launch even more. But I really liked the one I chose so looking forward to it. Just want a wallet style case for work too.
If you don't mind me asking what was the price you wound up paying? I'll be waiting till 4/19 to order these cases. They look fantastic.
