What is best iPad case? (drop protection +attractive +ergomonic +not too expensive)

[ship69]

Hi

What is the best iPad2 protective case that meets all of these 4 criteria:
a) Gives protection against being dropped
b) Is good looking, tactile and nice to use
c) Doesnt cost too much money (i.e. less than say GBP70.00)
d) Is very ergonomic - i.e. it helps you use the iPad itself by propping it up appropriately.

e.g. The iPad 2 "Smart Cover" from the Apple Store
looks very ergonomic, BUT it doesnt look like it would give much protection against being dropped (e.g. onto a corner!)

With thanks

Look at the Griffen Survivor. It offers massive protection meets military standards for protection against wind, sand, rain, vibrations and drops

It has one downside, it makes the iPad heavier and bigger so you lose the sleek look of the iPad. It cost around $80 USD

Wish they made that for the ipad 1

I bought the smart cover. It is good enough.

I have a brookestone leather smart case. It isn't the best for protection, but it looks sleek, has openings for each port and the camera, and can stand the iPad2 in four different positions. The f
Selling point for me was the number of positions I can stand the iPad in for any of my needs.
