Anyone try one?

Hi Brennivin, et al,

I just ordered one. I think about 2 weeks from now, I'll have one and post my thoughts back here.

They look good, and I'm hoping the quality is up to scratch.

Cheers,

Hi everyone,

the cover arrived, and I quite like it. The fit is as good as any I have seen, and it adds a touch of class to the IQ that its sleeve seemed to lack.

That said, the sleeve is more generous in its protection: the cover is light and the spine (where the front folds over the "pocket" that holds the IQ) is thin and soft. I don't think this is a negative in terms of durability, because I am confident it will last for several years, or what I see as the projected life of the IQ.

Lightness is a plus for my wife, who has a phobia of things heavy. (Massophobia?

At university, she sat next to me in class not because of my dashing countenance or rapier wit, but because the maths text was far to weighty for her to carry to class...)

The clasp works well, and the little pockets inside the cover will no doubt prove useful at some stage, though they will not hold, say a USB cord.

I'd rate it an 8 out of 10 for both quality and value; by comparison I'd give the Pocketgoods covers a 9.5. So, I'm pleased to have got it, or at least, my wife is.

Any other questions, please give a yell.

Ebay has some covers and cases for the pocketbook IQ, when you go on the ebay site just type pocketbook IQ in their search engine and it will bring up what they have.

Once I checked to make sure the seller was willing to ship internationally (and they were - for free, even! That never happens to me!) I was committed to buying one. It arrived recently and after a few days of using it, I can say that I definitely agree with Metal Mick's review. I'm very happy with the cover.

Check out the iQ-Case.com.This really lovely leather bound padded cover is just the thing for iPad users. My lovely red leather case has kept my iPad safely stored from harm as I travelled the globe over a month.
At airports it is easier to carry this look-like-a-beautiful-book case.Sitting in the security scanning trays at all the airports it was easy to keep my eyes on it and not misplace it being such a nice looking book. The way it is built you can prop it up at an angle and happily type,read or watch. The isnert that holds the iPad is a cut out piece of sturdy bamboo with all the cutouts for the various ports and speaker outlets and charging port in particulr. I bout a special adaptor which was brilliant as I could download my pics from my camera straight onto the iPad and off they went to people all over the world.
