Nice, looks just like an apple one. What do you not like about it?

I have to share this really cool accessory. It is called the swipe by sidekick. It is a screen cleaning device that uses carbon black as the cleaning agent. Apparently the carbon black absorbs all the oils from your fingertips. It works like a charm. It is in a small black case you pull it out to retract the cleaning pad. Then just rub the cleaning pad on the screen, and the screen is cleaned magically. Apparently the swipe has over 150 uses before you have to replace the pad.

It seems cheap. The metal part with the magnet is exactly the same and the wake feature works. Remember that comparing to the leather version. I guess I got spoiled, but maybe this knock is just cheap.

Drathburn, thanks for the share. Do you have a link to the product? I'm searching around and I'm not finding anything

Aq_oc, no comment =/ that's the problems with clones. Some people like/want them for budget reasons.. can't go wrong with the original product though.

No, unfortunately all I have is this link to a video. I purchased mine at the Canadian retailer call future shop. I don't know where it is available in United States.

@exile and others

I wanted a quick suggestion out of the Cimo TPU case and TPU HyperShield which one should I go for as a back cover which one is more light in weight and does not add to the weight of the iPad I am gonna use it with the smart cover from Apple. Are both of those Plastic or Polyurethane ? is any of those Leather? Need to order it today anyhow. Quick response will be highly appreciated.

Sorry was playing zombie contract killer on the 3 and didn't hear my phone go off. With all the good reviews about the Cimo, I would go with them.

Do I personally own a Cimo TPU for my 3? No. But I do have a TPU case on my 3vo and it is pretty awesome. So I can only presume the same awesomeness for the 3 as well.

I never heard of the the hypershield until you mentioned it. I just looked at their site. I'll have to add those items tomorrow... Today.

If i was in your shoes, I would go with Cimo.

Edit-
Plastic or polyurethane ... For what? The cases? TPU is thermoplastic polyurethane. So it is a plastic... But polyurethane ... Lol. Its not a hard plastic like a belkin snap shield. Flexible like gel but keeps its form and never loses shape over time.

So according to you both of this should be anytime better than the Belkin Snapshield ? is that what you are saying ?

[exile]

Well I have the belkin on mine and I have no complaints. But for a TPU case less than $15.. its a pretty good deal. Plus the quality of TPU in general is very durable. It is pretty much trouble free... Unless if you take scissors and cut it... For some strange reason which I have no clue.

I was looking at the hypershield some more. I guess go with hypershield if you want more of a color selection. Cimo has some color selection but not as much as hypershield does. They're both identical to be honest.

Edit-
I didn't really answer your question.. lol. Is it better? ........ Hard to say. This is from my perspective. If I didn't buy the belkin, I would have bought the Cimo hands down.

I'm saying it's hard to say because, "in my opinion" I think they're both equally good.

Price-wise though... $34...29...20 for the belkin depending which gen.model and where you get it.. to $10..15 for the TPU... ... TPU good quality. Belkin is prone to cracking if you have an older gen snap shield.

You're not doing an impulse buy here are you? There's a lot of cases out there..... I would hate for you to rush in for a purchase because of my recommendation and end up not really liking the case. But if you got your mind set on TPU, go for it! stop contemplating and just submit the order already. Kidding.
