to be honest, i'm still looking for a case for myself and i realised that there isn't a dedicated thread, as observed in the iPhone and iPod sub-forums respectively.

hence i thought that it will be a good idea to start one.

however, i also realised that i'm at least two versions late and there are clusters of reviews/recommendations here and there in the general Apple iPad Discussion Thread.

it will be a superb initiative, if you (you know who are you! ) have posted reviews with regard to iPad related accessories prior to this, take some effort to track it back and, copy and paste in this thread.

this maneuver will no doubt, speed up specific searches in the future.

remember, this iPad related accessories thread will cover everything! this can include apple official accessories (for example docks), cases, screen protectors, battery packs, bags, performance and convenience enhancer products, and everything under the sun!

THREAD RULES:

1) DO NOT POST YOUR SALES THREAD.
2) NO PERSONAL BLOGSITE ALLOWED.
3) DO NOT SPAM OR POST UNCONSTRUCTIVDE POST.

As I'm only an iPad accessories seller not an iPad user yet, I will just post the iPad epikcase review taken from one of my buyer.


Review of the epikcase:

QUOTE

This one is sleeker, and is semi transparent, with motifs on the back.  It also grips better, so you can put it on your trousers or bare skin and don’t have to worry about the iPad falling off.  I got it for RM 30 before shipping.  The case has cut outs for the buttons and ports and is designed quite nicely.  I think it’s called a “resin” case or something – and it’s harder than a silicone case.











taken from: http://mytechnews.info/b/2010/04/using-the...tecting-it.html

I'm using askarPerang clear EpikCase. It does look good and feel great. I wish it was thinner coz I don't need to protect from fall, just protect from scratches.

sorry guys. left out the store name!

i have edited the template

Presenting the Waterfield Muzetto!



The inside main pocket also has a zippered pocket that you can fit in wiping cloths and keys. I don't carry chargers as the iPad itself has proven to be long-lasting in terms of battery life.

Purchased from www.sfbags.com for USD179. The iPad Slip Case is USD29 I'm planning to buy another 10' Muzetto as well as the iPAd Smart Case from them. The Keyboard Short Wireless Case is on order from a bulk order organized by Eralus.

Not much of iPad stand user here hmmm

any good folio type recommendations?

This is quite new. Maybe have to wait a little while for some other manufacturers

Great effort, TS! I would like to suggest having a list of reviewed products (with links) on the first page so it would be helpful once this thread has reached a few hundred posts.

On a more relevant note, i just received my iPad last night, and the case I ordered would be here in July. It's the DodoCase, a Moleskine-like case, complete with the faux leather cover and the elastic band that holds it together. I think it's super sexy. Will post up a review here once it is in my hands. If you're a Moleskine Cult follower and you have an iPad, this is the case you would want!

Cheers.

Cheers!

anyone knows where I can get the Novotel MIFI?

Anyone have purchased Yoobao iPad case?
