The Search for the Best New iPad HD Case Begins!

Ah! Thanks, must have missed it.. Just had like 15 tabs of cases open. Haha. Now coming the hard part - STM Skinny or Lexington. I'm leaning towards the Lexington!

I got the Lexington. Someone said in another thread it might ship this weekend. I was leaning towards the Maroo but this seems more professional.
 
I'm waiting for the new Yoobao leather executive case. It's classy and minimalist, which I like. Hope they come out with it soon -- I don't want my iPad to be naked for too long! (It's going to be my first one)
 
I went with the incipio lexington. Looks classy and it will look good standing up next to my bed.

used FBFAN2012 for 6.00 off.
 
Nobody but me seems to be getting the ZooGue case. It's like the best kept secret, worth a look if your in the market at least.

I'm also thinking this is what I want. I hope it doesn't take too long!
 
So out of all of these places, which quality cases are shipping out now (or will be delivered by March 16th)?

Yeah, not a bad price at all. Let us know how you end up liking it. Is Incipio planning on shipping before the new iPad?

I talked to the CS department today and said they should have them in stock this weekend and there's a good chance we can have them on the 16th if you preordered today.

I said why not? It's the style case I love and if it doesn't come on time I can try the case I have for the iPad 2 or just run over to best buy and scoop something up for a few days. Then of course return it :D

Any news of Zum SC Ultimate being updated for The New iPad?
 
Asked earlier, but anyone with the Bear Motion know if it has a place to hold a stylus? Seems to be one of the best reviews cases on amazon and the price is hard to beat
 
SwitchEasy Response

I had a SwitchEasy Canvas for the iPad 2 and loved it. The company also stands behind their products really well. I emailed them and got this response yesterday...

"We will be coming out with a Newly designed Canvas Case for the iPad 3!!! It will be the first case released on March 16Th. Following that will be the CoverBuddy and Cara Cases. We will also be coming out with some Newly Designed Cases only offered for the iPad 3! Please check back to www.SwitchEasy.com on March 16Th to view the New Canvas Case!"
 
Currently deciding between the following:
1)BookBook case from Twelve South
2)Octavo case from Pad & Quill
3)Moko2 case from Maroo
4)DODOcase

Anyone else has other recommendations of cases that are moulded like a notebook?

Actually, it's no secret. On principal alone I'll never spend my money on anything this company makes. The owner came here, spammed the **** out of the site, created various user names, touted his designs and often played like he just bought the case and was sharing his new purchase with us. He got his name out there and that was the ultimate goal and while the mods shut down his user names fairly quickly, I don't like his tactics and find no reason to spend my money on his products. In a world where the case to device ratio is excessively high, there are options and I do vote with my wallet.


On topic, I hope these case manufacturers get their ass in gear and get something that works with the smart cover. I really would like to toss some cash at Belkin or Incase for their products but I believe Incase is only allowing pre-order for black back protection cases.

Wow didn't know about the spamming. I can see him doing that as I often get emails for a "free" case. With that being said, I've used a lot of iPad cases and I have yet to find one that matches this one. The fact that is adjustable to any angle is what sets it apart from most other folio cases that stand.
 
There was one that was a convertible case or something like that. I think that also fit the same style. No doubt he could have a very nice product line but again, I find some weird set of reasons for not buying and just roll with it. I'm a stubborn bitch. :p
 
is the lexington leather? Also how does its thickness compare to the switcheasy canvas?
 
As the list gets longer, would it be a pain for the OP to consolidate all the case options so far on the first page? If so, it would be awesome to start a thread that is a "go to" for all the new case options starting to appear....

STM Skinny for iPad 3 (in Berry, to be specific).

OH, also! Coupon code for RadTech — 20% off:

AUG2011

/shrug. Still works. Shipping for me is 4.50, so 36 total for back and front protection is lovely. Have to wait about two weeks to get it, but I've got a slipcover til then. Or I'll buy a cheapo one at BBY.

Worked for me too! I placed an order for one in black. :D :cool:
 
Does anyone have any experience with the Fimir Max vs the iVisor? Any differences? Fimir is half the price and also has great reviews.
