Ipad 3 case that works similarly to original Apple Case

I used this case with my iPad 2 and it also fits the 3. It is also sold under the Yoobao brand name on Amazon. The typing angle is a bit steeper than the original Apple case, but has stood up well to a year of use.

Apparently the issue with the magnetic on/off is where the magnets are on each iPad; Apple changed it for the new one and case developers weren't told of this.

That wouldn't surprise me. I'm sure they do that on purpose to get people to buy a case directly from Apple instead.

I contacted Targus support about my Slim Case not working as a smart cover and got a reply that they will ship me a tested replacement in 6-8 weeks. I don't have to ship them my current case, they just needed a copy of the receipt and my shipping address. I think this is a pretty good way for them to handle this situation... I will get a working case once they can produce them, and in the mean time I'm not left stranded.
