omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

If you want a sturdy case, this is the most robust I've seen (via internet, not in person)

iPad in case, dropped off 3rd story balcony.

No clue how bulky it is to actually use. And most drops happen in use, not transport, so, not sure how practical it is.

Oh right, co-worker got this case for the iPad he lends out to students. It's Mil-Spec. Should survive minor natural disasters.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I do have the Griffin webpage open, and a 20% coupon.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

And related to that, anyone have a particular case they particularly like for protection purposes?

I have a skin on the back of mine because Apple things tend to be slippy and I slide it across couches and beds. I also have a case for travel.

My sister uses LifeProof and the twins have not destroyed her things yet.

The only crack on my iPad is where Kittenish gnawed on it. Now that she's been gone for so long, I am hoping it never dies because it's a sweet reminder. Now. I was annoyed at the time.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have a Logitech keyboard case. It doesn't protect the screen from anything but dust, but still, KEYBOARD.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I have a few different cases that I use for different things. The one I get the most use out of is a purple plaid one I got at Target. I forgot the brand name, but it comes in a bunch of patterns and colors, and it's got plastic things that the ipad snaps into. My little cousin threw her dad's iPad across the room while it was in one of them, and the iPad was fine.

This was the case I like: [link] The way they show it in the picture, standing up on the case, doesn't really work too well, but I don't really use it that way anyway.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

heh. My iPad spends a lot of time in that position, but HBOGo, so....

I wasn't sure where to put this, but today on eBay you can get a $100 iTunes card for $75.
