I got a couple of Poetic cases:

Poetic Slimline Case: An excellent slim, snap-in case for general use that uses a magnet to stay closed and to turn on/off the Nexus 7.2.

Poetic Revolution Case: Excellent armored protection, but the included, built-in screen protector is rubbish. The screen protector did not work well with the touchscreen. I simply removed the built-in screen protector and use the case whenever I am outdoors using the Nexus 7.2 with my DSLR camera. This is similar to an Otterbox Defender at a fraction of the cost, but not nearly as well constructed. BTW, Otterbox does not make a Defender for the Nexus 7.2.

ETA: The built-in screen protector on my Poetic Revolution Case didn't work well as far as touch sensitivity. It made using the touch screen very difficult. Others claim theirs worked fine, so I might have just gotten a bad one. I prefer no screen protector, so instead of returning I removed it.
