    Great features, but without any back protection!

    This case is absolutely amazing! It comes in a range of great colours. It cleans you iPad 2/3rd generation screen. It wakes it up and puts it to sleep, and it makes as a great stand. If you are looking for a case that protects it from the odd bump and scratch, this is the one for you! But, if you want maximum protection from every thing you can through at it, this case isnt for you. Although you can now get cases for the back of the iPad which are still compatible with the Smart Cover. Overall, I use this all of the time on my iPad, but if you are looking for a little more protection this isnt a case for you.

    This iPad cover is worth every penny. It's stylish and innovative design is matched by its great working functionality. It couldn't have been made better - but only by Apple. Like my fridge, I now wonder what my iPad gets up to when I close it's door and the lights go out!!!

    Usage results in 4 lines of "smears" across the screen

    The cover works well enough as a cover, but usage results in the leather leaving 4 lines of smears all across the screen from where the creases are in the design. These can be rubbed off with a microfibre cloth, but are harder to remove than the inevitable fingerprints. I don't know if this is just that the one I have has poorly treated leather, but something isn't right that it leaves such deposits. Disappointing

    Works in portrait too, sort of

    The black leather one is unobtrusive and works well. I did have a slip case to cover the back of my iPad as well, but don't think I really needed it since there's already a dedicated pouch in my bag for an iPad.

    I now regret delaying buying one of these for months because it didn't seem to allow the iPad to be stood up in portrait as well as landscape. In fact it does, albeit at an angle pretty much perpendicular to the surface it's on and thus without a huge amount of stability. Still, good enough for reading and other mostly hands-off activities - now I can eat my lunch and read without craning my neck to see the iPad laid on a flat surface. The steep landscape position is very stable and can be prodded pretty hard without it being knocked over.

    I also quite like the way the cover softens the feel of the iPad when folded back, so the cold metal and hard edges aren't so noticeable.

    Obviously it's ridiculously expensive (the profit margin must be truly enormous!) but it is nice, and it is useful.

    Hyped

    I bought the magnetic cover that Apple made for the iPad in red but felt that the back of my iPad was very exposed to knocks and blows, the out side of the cover was such cheap leather it immediately looked marked and scrappy despite the care I took and the inside was down right absorbent. So I then bought a smart and practical as well as much more ecanomical ordinary leather case that cost me 9 quid and wish I hadn't been conned by the hype.

    Fast delivery, great quality and so simple but yet so effective. Only bad aspect is that back of iPad remains exposed.

    I've had this leather case for my iPad 2 now for around a week, from which I purchased from a very busy apple shop. They apple team in store where great . As for the product, I cannot fault it. Does exactly what I need, and more. You can use it in multiple ways, and some how locks and unlocks when closing and opening. Im a pleased customer.

    The Red looks brilliant in contrast with any colour iPad and the feel and function is outstanding.
    A must for anyone who is looking for something special for their iPad, love it !

    I haven't found any problems with this cover, does everything it should. I like the red, and the fact my screen is cleaned automatically.

    Poor design

    I have owned an iPad 1 for over a year now and grown used to the original cover,I have now got the new ipad 2 (brilliant) but the new type cover is very poor the temptation to pick up the iPad by the cover as I was used to doing with the old cover has proved almost lethal for my new iPad as the magnetic strip that holds the cover to the iPad is not strong enough to hold the weight
