We found that the Roo Case has withstood the test of time. It has been truly a great case! It also fits perfectly in the Bretford iPad cart. Roo Case
The case below WAS going to be our case, but found that the Roo Case was cheaper
We have decided that the xenGadget leather case is going to be our case of choice. We have decided against screen savers! We are trying to squeeze every penny out of allotted budget and screen savers are out!
Positives: Red (school color), Front and Back Protection, Two different stands, leather, cost ($34.99), sleep mode when closed
Cons: None (at this time)
Side Note: It is not available at this time, will order and hope it comes in by first day of deployment!
Items I am considering for cases must be practical and yet cool looking. Having iPod touches for two years has allowed me to see that clear, hard cases that encompass the entire iPod has kept the iPods in fairly new condition. It is with this that I am unsure if the Apple iPad 2 cases, while VERY COOL looking may NOT withstand the use of eighth graders.
With that, I am looking at four cases as of now. PLEASE leave a comment if you have any thoughts or ideas that could help make the decision!
