Case option for your New iPad

I recently bought the Versavu by Targus, it's the one with the 360° rotating stand and it's fits the device like a glove.

I really like my Versavu for my new iPad. I had it for my iPad 2 as well. There is an issue with the on/off magnet on the new case, but it's not an option I felt was important in the first place. I'm perfectly capable of using the home button to turn my screen on and off. I don't really type on it much as I have a Zagg bluetooth keyboard. What was really important to me is the ability to easily rotate between portrait and landscape and there aren't many options as well done as the Targus. Now, the smell in the new case? Wow, whatever glue they used is pretty strong, but I'm hoping it will diminish quickly.


BTW., I also have the Zagg Folio for my new iPad. I didn't like the case, because protrait is important to me and you have to remove the iPad from the case, which is difficult to do at best. I do like the keyboard. So, I'm using the Zagg keyboard and the Targus case, which for me is a perfect combination.

Actually, for the new iPad it does. It just doesn't work and sometime in the next 6 weeks, Targus will be sending a free replacement. It turns out Apple change the polarity of the magnet on the front of iPad, which Targus was not aware of. If you go to the Targus site, you won't see the feature, because Targus took down mention of it. But, go out to Amazon and read about 10 pages of reviews of customers and a statement from Targus stating they're aware of the issues and are going to make it right for their customers.

William, I'm not going to argue with you. I already said they took the feature off the website because Targus acknowledges the feature doesn't work on the new case. However, the box the case comes in clearly shows the feature and while it can be made to work (yes, I've tried it on my device), it's not consistent because Apple changed the polarity. And again, if you really want to know, go out to Amazon and read the many pages of comments from customers about this feature not working and you'll also see a comment directly from Targus Customer Support saying they are aware of the issue and a revised case will be out in 6 or so weeks. So, believe what you want, but it was designed this time around with the on/off feature (which btw., does work on our other iPad 2).

Then below that it has three square boxes:
