The iPad is without a doubt a simply stunning bit of kit. Many criticise because it's not a so called fully fledged OS with multitasking and all of the other things that help to make your netbook or notebook slow, frustrating and ultimately battery sapping.
Personally, I think that it is an amazing bit of technology whose journey is only just beginning. Having had a play with the new OS4 for the iphone, I can see many of the points that critics love to hate about the iPad removed from their firing line altogether. Given the improvements that OS4 will be bringing to the platform and the fact that all the iPad specific apps are so new (and no doubt rushed to get them out the door ready for launch based on simulator testing only), we haven't seen anything yet!
So, while we are waiting for the paradigm shift to seriously get under way, we here at Ginkgo Studios thought we would have a look at the emerging cases and accessories that are starting to appear on the market place.
The first of which is a case I actually purchased to snugly look after my iPad. The Saddleback Leather Companies iPad Gadget Pouch...
It comes in many flavours. Aesthetically and functionally. I opted for the Tobacco Leather pouch. Simple clean and very attractive indeed
It's a nice thick saddle leather pouch (or boot leather to be accurate) to look after your new investment. That's it... And, that's all I wanted. Together with the iPad, it is a beautiful fusion of the traditional and the cutting edge that perfectly complement each other.
There is the option for other shades of leather and for the addition of two pockets on one side of the case to hold your power supply (not a practical solution for the
UK plug format) and your iPhone, MiFi or whatever else you fancy putting in there.
My personal view however, is that on reflection, these pockets do detract from the overall aesthetic of the product. And, given that there are no pocket securing devices, it's not likely to be your primary carrying case, more an attractive cover for it while in your primary carrying case.
In summary, I love it. It's simple, good looking, has a very positive cool factor and does the job it was designed for very well. It doesn't have lots of additional functionality like other cases but, what it does do, it does perfectly. And at a price tag in the mid $50, it's not cheap, but definitely worth the price.
I got a iPad case similar to that @ BoxWave, Just waiting till it gets here!

Being unhappy is like an infectious disease.
It causes people to shrink away from the sufferer.
He soon finds himself alone,miserable and embittered.
There is,however,a cure so simple as to seem,at first glance,ridiculous;if you don't feel happy,pretend to be!

I like the look of it from the first picture but when I saw the pockets it turned me off. It just doesn't look right on a nice leather case like that. They should just made it a nice leather sleeve and not put the pockets.

I heard Saddleback makes some quality leather accessories and this seem to prove it. I agree though that the pockets look a little out of shape.

I have a friend who bought a number of Drive-In Movie sites around the Washington DC area many years ago. At one point I mentioned that Drive-In's seemed like a lousy business to be investing in.
