    you can see the top edge of the plastic corner guards have a little lip that snaps over the ipad. im going to order one now. its looks exactly like what im looking for.

    tho, this looks decent as well - Incipio Kickstand for iPad - Black/Black IPAD-133
    I see that, but there is no class or lip to keep the iPad in the case...seems like it would pop out all the time.

    I would think once all 4 of those corners are holding it on, with the lips on each corner you would have to physically pop at least 2 of them off for the ipad to come out.

    hard to tell. hopefully the owner will chime in soon. i went to order one, but its not available until 5/4 so ill wait a bit. its exactly what i want, but perhaps i can find something local or just as good in stock.

    or the quirky cloak will be available soon.

    The Incipio was reviewed by MacWorld and while they like it, it was not worth it for my taste. $60 and you cannot fold the cover back while holding it. The only advantage was being able to remove the iPad easier than the Apple case. If I wanted a stand for my iPad, I would not go to a case like that.

    well the incipio is only $22 in that link. that low price might make it better for some!

    no one has that macally bookstand in stock. doesnt ship for a couple weeks still. that sucks. I hate waiting. im paranoid about not having a case right now.

    seems like all the decent cases arent available yet.

    The Apple case is excellent.

    I didn't think I would like it at first, but I really love it and find it perfect for the device.

    Sorry, I was on an airplane all day... I wouldn't be worried about the iPad popping out of the case, I just held it upside down, slipped my fingernails under the 2 edges of the backside of the case and shook it, trying to dislodge the iPad... It didn't budge at all, and I shook it hard. The corners have a little lip on them that snap over the corner of the bezel, it holds it really tight.

    I got mine off of Ebay from a seller named nakedcellphone, but I just searched and he has an auction running, but doesn't have them in stock. He is claiming a shipping date of 4/28... Plus his price is higher than other stores people have been able to get them from. But when I ordered mine he was the only one that had them in stock, and I got it 2 days later in the mail. People at macrumors have been getting them at onsale.com and provantage.com... Check for stock there...

    I couldn't be happier. The Incipio looks nice, but it covers up the front bezel more than the apple case does. It's going to collect dirt and hair under there, which is one reason I love this case. The full front of the iPad is available to wipe down...

    I agree with Gentlefury, the Apple case is great. Very low profile but protective. I have also preordered the Macally case from Amazon as an alternate.

    Thanks for the pictures, hope you will post back and tell us how tightly the ipad fits in the case. I have the apple case which this case you have purchase seems to be an improvement on. You answered the question seems good to go.

    You might also take a look at SENA Cases. I have several for other toys. They are kind of expensive, but are of the very highest quality. Only preorders available right now. I have one ordered and will post a review after I receive it. Shipping around May 12.
