iPad cases: let the skinning begin…
So, we finally got the measurements, and case makers have already got busy and there are at least two ranges out already that I’ve heard of.
The iPad poses an interesting dilemma for the casemakers – smartphones get tight-fitting skins, laptops get bags – what will the half pound, 10″ iPad get? Looks like skins are winning so far. Protect that capacitive touchscreen with some tight fitting rubberised plastic or a sleeve or jacket that you can then slip in a rucksack or handbag.
Griffin Technology have already launched a “for iPad” range and as well as “sleeves” and “jumpers” they’ve also opted for an interesting “passport” style case which opens up like a book to reveal the screen (see full range here; pricing to be confirmed).
Wrappers are offering some funky textile cases:
I particularly like the black and white check one, though it’s by Ralph Lauren so comes with a hefty £38 price tag. Full Wrappers range here.
I’m sure we’ll get many more of these..

Awesome collection.. Some really inspiring, colourful designs!!
Nice article and nice Ipad accessories. I've been to cellphoneshop.net and I found one with better side support, if we still think safety as one criteria.
WOW. I love the colours!! This is going to look amazing – lucky baby :)
this is a really nice post i like this post i find some new things here in this post………….
very happy to read your blog.
Thank your post…
These are nice options, but I like the skins better. there are just more designs to choose from, and you can always put a case over them.
I got my skin from here:

Apple’s Leather case is actually not that bad, but thankfully there are plenty of alternatives out there.
That is great case. Althrough I am using a leather case from DSstyles, but I still think the funky case is nice.

I can’t wait to get my hands on an iPad! I already have a red speck case for my macbook pro, I’m assuming the same will be available for my new iPad ;)
