What case are you using?

ficbot · 06-01-2010, 03:07 PM

I have a case I received from the very kind folks at M-Edge, and I don't like it. It has a tab for standing up the iPad, and I am never sure where to put it if I don't plan to stand the ipad up. Plus it's heavy and the ipad is heavy enough as it is. So far I have been preferring to use it 'naked.'

I am at work right now and just tried the standard netbook sleeve that is like this one (two puffy halves with a zipper around the middle. It fits, albeit a little loosely. But I am worried because it was designed for something which closes like a clamshell and the iPad is open.

Otoh the official Apple case does not look like it offers much in the way of protection either. Perhaps this basic sleeve case I already have is good enough for getting it to and from work in a messenger bag. What to do, what to do

I have already spent a fair chunk of money on this, so I averse to spending much more. But if the case I have is not suitable, I want to find one to protect my iPad too.

I am using a netbook sleeve type case. However, I don't often carry my iPad away from home so there isn't a lot of movement or bumping to concern me.

loads of good info already in there about case options.
