Not that I have seen an iLiad yet but one of the concerns about any sort of a case or cover is that you have to have access to the stylus/pen and the stylus storage well maybe. From what I have read so far you need to stow the stylus to shutdown the extra power consumption used in running the Wacom interface. I did see somewhere that supposedly it would also shutdown if the stylus was out of the well and also away from the screen for a prolonged period.

Otherwise just throwing it in one of those Targus style notebooks just to use as a cover should be good enough at least for the time being.
