However, with the iPad Air, its thinness and lightness are the most defining features, so using the Gripster may make that less noticeable. And then the biggest part of the attraction of the iPad Air vs. the older gens becomes nullified. I wonder if they'll be able to engineer a version for the iPad Air that still keeps it feeling light and thin. Otherwise, I may have to start looking for an origami-style case instead.

I agree with you completely! I am hoping that since the iPad Air is lighter that they can make the Gripster less hefty since it won't have as much to support. I've been checking their website daily. Newtech has a case very much like the Gripster, so I have been checking there too.
Is an origami style case those ones that look like a smart cover but fold in different ways? I've seen them on eBay and wondered about them.
