I might be getting an iPad here in a couple of weeks and am looking for a good case for it.
I'm rather careful with my electronics, but I'm pretty crazy over protective with my stuff and really want a case that will protect the iPad from drops and general wear. I was thinking about the otterbox defender for it, but are there any other options that other have tried? thanks |

i bought the Otter Box for the Ipad2. It has handle my 3 year old pretty good so far...... The reason that I like the otterbox over anything else that I've seen is that it has a screen cover that you can use. All the other 'heavy duty' cases that I've seen, the gumdrop - military and the survivor case, only have the protection on the back of the case with an integrated screen protector. |
| Check out Seidios' Ipad 2 "Active" case. I just got mine in the mail the other day, and I am very impressed. I have a similar case from Seidio but for my iPhone and it has held up great. The iPad case is outstanding. Barely adds weight, and also keeps it slim and sleek. I work in law enforcement and private security and both cases hold up very well during use. Do a youtube search for it, and I promise you will like what you see. |

Can you wait a few months?
According to a report by Digitimes, Apple is preparing to launch an upgraded iPad 2 in March 2012, with the iPad 3 to follow in the third quarter of the same year. The new iPad 2 is rumoured to offer better battery life than the current model, and could also sport a thinner profile. Apple will also reportedly launch a “real” iPad 3 during the third quarter of 2012. LCD panel manufacturers including Samsung are said to be working on a new retina display for the next-generation iPad, while a faster A6 processor may also feature. The decision to launch an upgraded iPad 2 ahead of an iPad 3 could be the result of manufacturing delays that are struggling to mass produce 2,048 x 1,536 resolution displays effectively. |

My dad is giving me his iPad 2 for Christmas (with that crappy smart cover) so that he can free up space in his 'big-boy toy' collection for the newer iPad. |

bump for more ideas I like the switcheasy case. It's simple, protects it, it's thin and tough. When it first came out the otter box for the iPad 2 didn't get very good reviews (not as good as their other products) I went with this one and really like it a lot! |
