Which adds less weight to an iPad 3: Apple Leather smart cover + ZUM Ultimate back cover, or Apple Smart case?
 
Smart case I'm sure, as its much less quality/cheaper...but does an ounce or two really make that much diff in your life?

Reason I ask is I'm going case-less at home this weekend. I forgt how amazingly light the iPad is without a case!

Update: The smart case weighs 5.25 oz., while the leather smart cover (5.1 oz.) and ZUM (2 oz.) weigh more (7.1 oz.).

I don't think there's a big difference in weight between the leather smart cover and the poly one, but the leather one did end up leaving a stain on my white iPad 2 after a while. :-/
