Rated G for Geek: A Case for the iPad

I happened to be at the Apple store in my area yesterday, playing with the iPad (didn’t order one yet). The salesman was showing the iPad cases and I grabbed one to see how I liked it.

Bottom line is, it felt kind of cheap and not what I expected from Apple. The material seemed flimsy and, in my opinion, it did not stand securely.

I decided to do a little research on line and came up with 2 cases that really caught my attention. They not only were cheaper (the Apple case is $39) but had more features.

Look them over and decide.
