Best iPad 2 Case
-
After using the iPad 2 and Apple’s Smart Cover, I decided to find something that offered more protection. I think I’ve found it, as you can see here. It is on the pricey side at $209, but the iPad 2 is a premium product deserving of a premium case. I purchased mine in black. For the high-rollers among you, there’s crocodile leather available for $689.
Anyone else with suggestions?

Get your Orbino Padova II case here.

MacWorld has a roundup of iPad 2 cases here.
Rubber isn’t my thing, but they’re doing amazing things with it these days.

I’m not big on cases for any of my devices (I use the Smart Cover because it’s so minimal) but these are gorgeous! Enjoy.

LOL when I saw this thread I thought it would be estimates from AFbers for best case sales numbers for iPad 2…

Nice weekend thread. Feels so like the purseforum.com.

This Orbino is a lovely bag and had been looking around for one like this for some time. Nice find.
Nevertheless felt in love with the Smart Cover and have two now for my inseparable white iPad2, a black leather and polyurethane blue which is the one that stays more on it.
When travelling or moving around to meetings carry a Hermes Steve which has a nice envelope separation sized for the iPad (or a small laptop) giving it the extra protection it deserves.

Nice bag there BN. It’s very similar to a Tumi bag I own below. It’s discontinued, but the link below is a fire sale price at Nordstrom for less than I paid.

Too soon for that—LG is ramping production for its panels after resolving issues related to light bleed. Does anyone know how to tell if my iPad 2 has a Samsung display (vs. LG)?

Looks nice and wow, great sale price! This is feeling more and more purseforum.com.
Also carry the iPad2 + Smart Case on a Louis Vuitton Taiga Dersou, more casual. The Hermes Steve is the everyday favorite.

The crocodile case looks awesome but anyone spending more for the case than the iPad (some models) is nuts!
The croc case only fits the iPad 2 64GB 3g Model :-D

Who, me? How about a Chanel iPad case at $1555 or the Tod?s aligator case at $4900.

Phillip Elmer-DeWitt quoted Harper?s Bazzar on “couture cases” for the iPad at
Apple 2.0And even more designer iPad cases including the Tod?s aligator here
