Hi there,

I've used iPad with Apple case for 2 months, but still looking for a folio case that can hold the iPad firmly and fit to my small notepad as well.

Currently, I have to hold 2 items when I travel on my business trip: iPad and notepad. I feel that writing on a paper is still better typing on the iPad. So, if there are any cases that can consolidate both iPad and notepad together, that would be great!!

Any suggestions?

Agreed...

I've been looking for one since the day I got my iPad. I really can't believe no big company has made one. I'd pay well for one.

Thanks for good idea Mike, The strap should be fit to me anyway.

I think may be most of the manufacturers aim to design the case to be as thin as possible. Still, I am looking for its functionality as well.

Arrggh, I thought you had the answer

My hopes dashed. I thought someone else had found what I too am looking for.

I'm still seeking and waiting for it.
Will let you know if I found it !!!

Cheers

imc88 you are right about most consumers wanting them as thin as possible. I have a question for all of you. When you carry a notepad with you what size is the pad? Is the length and width greater then that of the IPAD? Mike we are taking a good look at modifications needed to be waterproof or even more water resistant. We have to balance that with cost because are cases are already on the high end side due to the cost of the prepeg carbon fiber.

I'm looking for the same sort of thing. The notepad I use now is the same size as the iPad, which makes holding both of them easy. If a case were holding both, i would probably prefer a full letter-size pad.

Are you all looking for something like this?

Thanks Webalistic

Looks okay but I think there's no business card slot on it right?

I have the Sena folio. There's a pocket that I saw described as big enough to fit a checkbook. The pocket runs the full width of the inside cover and is a few inches deep, so if your notepad isn't as wide as the iPad, you can slip it right in. It also has business card slots (four of them), which one could also use for credit cards, and it has a clear ID slot.

Why the Hell anyone would carry their credit cards and driver's license in their iPad case is beyond me, but I'm sure people like that exist. I sure wouldn't carry all my eggs in one basket like that.

No, I don't work for Sena, I'm just really impressed with this folio. It's fairly expensive though. I spent $80+ on it at the Apple store.

Could this be what you are looking for?

Yeah, I think it looks nice j0yful, especially with its price!! (Too cheap for a "Genuine Leather"??)

Several business card slots are always perfect when you use the iPad with your work.

But still there's no way to hold a notepad together

I think I found one!

Only problem is the price!

Pen City

Yeah, that's mighty expensive. It is quite nice, though. I don't go for the gator skin look, personally, but it is pretty stylish.

I'm still shocking with its price lol.

How about this one?

Try 'Upper Cow Slin Leather Portfolio Case for ipad by skyten' on etsy

I bought an inexpensive leather book/Bible holder. It zips all around and has a handle on the spine to carry it. I can put my ipad as well as other items in it, zip it and carry it.

As a pen collector and having some knowledge of the local market, I can pretty much say that Pen City is one of the most expensive, full-price-marked-up retailers to buy anything from.

(They were selling, for example, a particular model of the Parker Duofold for $375 which I could get from another dealer for $170 - or less than half their asking price. How they have remained competitive and in business so long is a mystery.)

This one is only cover
