    hi everyone, going to buy an ipad tmrw and i want to buy a decent case to go with it, something not too bulky, and something that comes with a screen protector bundled would be nice,

    what are you using?

    I'm using the official Apple one. It's pretty nice, covers the screen well, but the material gets dirty very easily. The built-in stand is brilliant.

    +1 for snugg here. Sturdy case, magenetic cover and decent enough built in stand.

    I pi ked up a fake leather one on eBay for 19.99 Inc p&p from an Irish seller. Has a little stand at the back and has a magnetized cover and clip so the cover doesn't flip open accidentally. A great buy. Have seen some smart little cases for carrying them around but I'm not that metro...not yet anyway.

    Picked up a Griffin Elan Passport in a BestBuy in the US last month.

    Cracking little case!

    Another vote for the Snugg case. Have had it over a month as well and again, not a mark on it. My only complaint with it is that when in the "standing/viewing" angle, the iPad starts to slowly drop a bit, the holder is not sturdy enough but it's not like it drops so much that any screen space is covered by the case or the iPad hits the desk...

    Wouldn't pay mental money for whats essentially packaged plastic or neoprene skins in an apple store or a reseller. Complete rip off ;)

    I'm using a Dodo Case, I think it's brilliant, looks and feels like a moleskin notebook and attracts no attention when out and about. It took over 4 weeks to get it but I'm very impressed and worth the wait.
