    Do you use a case Coach?

    If you have to have a case, check out the Skinny from STM. Not leather, not bulky, protective, not completely uncool.

        I have a leather case for my iPad 2 and it's not bulky at all. Some are -- my wife bought one from Pottery Barn that was ridiculous and she brought it back. Besides protection, I think a leather one also makes it easier to grip and that's an important consideration IMO. Before we bought the case, the iPad was just waiting to be dropped.

        Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

          I'm looking at something like this:

            I would still like to get that tablet, but unfortunately it didn't come out in time for Christmas. By the looks of the pre-orders, it is selling very well. Definitely the best specc'd tablet yet. But that doesn't mean much if I can't get it in my hands.

              Why did you need a tablet by X-mas? Why not wait for what you want?

                Because I'm impatient. Also, there's the chance that if I let a major holiday or birthday slip by without a present, my wife will try to convince me to wait until the next major holiday or birthday.

                      If I were you, I'd post a picture of your friend's iPad cover.

How thick is the one for your phone? The ones they were showing at CES seemed a little clunky. Maybe they have slimmed down a bit since then. Did you buys yours online?
                              It was a Christmas present from my wife. She bought it online. I'm trying to post a photo of one in my hand so you can get an idea of its size. I don't think it's clunky, but that's a personal taste thing. I'm happy to trade a little clunkiness for being able to flick a tiny switch and watch my battery indicator go from 20% to 75%.
