I have ordered an Apple case online but would like to find an inexpensive option in a local store to hold me over for five weeks until it arrives. Anybody find a good alternative, like at an Office Depot or REI or something? Well, REI won't be inexpensive! I've already checked my local Target. Nothing there.
Best Buy has some great ones at low prices. I got a Griffin elan passport folding leather one for $20.
I looked all over town at net book cases to carry my iPad around in. Some were ok but had to much slip room inside or didn't have much padding. Then I accidentally ran across the perfect lil zipper case. It's an HP net book sleeve. It's a PERFECT fit and has a lot of foam. I bought it at WalMart. HP 10.2" Mini Sleeve | HP® Official Store
