The smart cover will do it for now, anything else will add more weight. I assume we will be seeing MANY accessories in the future so .....
 
I returned my air for a rMINI and the only reason was availability of cases and accessories. The one thing I hate about being an early adopter is that accessories suck and thats the only reason. Both are beautiful and get the job done.

Its called Buyers Remorse:eek:
 
I use the Smart Cover with my Air and put it in an Incase Sleeve when traveling about. Works great. Don't see the problem. If this didn't work for me, I certainly wouldn't make the short term limited selection of cases drive my device decision.....but, to each their own.
 
This is why I opted out of buying a 2014 BMW 7 Series and went with a Toyota instead, couldn't find one of those damn fluffy steering covers that fit the 7 Series.

I got an Origami case and a clear back skin for my Air that work out a great. I know not what you speak of.

I totally understand where you're coming from because my daughter is exactly like this. I take her to buy a new doll and let her choose two spare outfits from what is currently available and she starts whining that she wants the outfits that haven't been released yet.

Thats why I use pcs over macs.
 
i buy all accessories via Ebay. there seem to be plenty of iPad Air cases and similar stuff available for 12.99 shipped. So I don't see that as a reason to make a decision for a 700 dollar device.

So your daughters doll's outfits protect her $500 doll and ad function to it? Or do you just like shopping for doll clothes and talking about it online?

Doesn't change the fact that they are garbage.

And this makes sense to who?

And now he feels the need to justify his decision to the entire world.

Maybe that's it, the air is overpriced garbage and anyone who bought it wasted money.
