    Well the first link does say "BEST" on it, so there's your answer :D

    I personally have the Apple case. It's exactly what I was looking for...really thin, decent protection, overs the screen when I don't use the iPad, and has a sturdy stand for typing. Though I just wish I could slip it out of the case real easy...it's just nice to use the device without any casings at home sometimes.

    Well there's the link for the case.

    I've been keeping my eye on that Cloak case for awhile. I'll have to see Some videos on it first. My most important buying factor is the thickness of any case...I just hope that Quirky case isn't too thick.

    This case isn't out yet. i don't know what you think of it, but in my opinion, it looks kicka**!

    i just got the Speck neoprene case, the one with the handle so you can carry it easily. it also has a no-scratch interior so your screen won't get scratched.

    Check Marware iPad cases. I got it from them and I am really happy with it. Apple's iPad cases...well, check the reviews about them.:rolleyes:

    Apple case has mixed reviews. Glad I didn't listen to the bad ones cause the Apple case is really awesome. Some of those reviews are pretty exaggerated and bs

    I'm sold on the clam case. That's the new hotness

    I agree about the Apple Case. I do not understand all the negative critique it has gotten. Apple has really given a lot of thought both to the design and the material.

    I love mine. IMHO it finishes and perfects the iPad as a workable device.

    Apple case. Covers, protects and does not add any bulk/thickness.

    I agree. The negative reviews almost made me pass on the apple case. The case is great IMO.

    Agreed. Some people don't like it but I think it is great.

    I to a quick look at the apple case in the store, but I didn't like the rubbery material.

    A few questions:

    1) Do you get used to the rubbery-ness of it?
    2) Does it attract lint?
    3) The edges seemed sharp to me. Do you get used to that?
    4) Do you find that the built in stand is secure?

    I wanted to like it, but the rubber and sharp edges really turned me off.

    I ended up getting this one instead: http://tinyurl.com/382sdyh

    but I think the apple one would be better protection.

    I haven't had a problem with the feel of it. Surprisingly it doesn't seem to attract lint. The edges never bothered me, so I really can't say. The stand works great.

    This is a high quality case and I love it. If you noticed some things that you did not like about it, you may want to avoid it.

    That's what I've done, but so many people seem to like it that I am starting to wonder if I was too hasty. I really like the overall design, its was just the material that put me of when I saw it.

    I bought the Apple Case and didn't care for it really. I don't like the screen cover always attached, kinda gets in the way when playing games. Not a big deal really, more of a preference. I got it because at the time of the iPad launch it was the only case they had available at my Apple store.

    Since then I have bought 2 other cases which I switch back and forth with. The first is the Streetskin from Hard Candy: http://www.hardcandycases.com/ipad-streetskin.html. This case has a tire tread design which gives your fingers plenty of places to grip and has a screen cover that snaps on and off. The iPad fits perfectly in this case without adding bulk. Hard to beat this one for it's look, feel and protection.

    The next case I have is a silicone case from Incase: http://www.goincase.com/products/detail/protective-cover-cl56429/4 Got it in green at the Apple store and it is a great fit, and has that perfect non-slip grip to it. It also has a stand that fits to the case. Really like the feel and look of this case.

    Can't go wrong with either of the latter 2 cases IMHO. I plan on selling the Apple original case...
