Cool Hunting: Eight Exciting iPad Cases
Eight Exciting iPad Cases
Keep your iPad protected with one of our favorite cases
While we really like the slimness and functionality of Apple's iPad case, an accessory that exemplifies your personality and meets your needs can be hard to find. Below we highlight eight cases that stand out for their ingenuity both in design and style.
Timbuk2 Quickie
The nylon Quickie ($45) from Timbuk2 offers the most in utility. The bag easily fits the iPad and has two exterior pockets for business cards, cords, keys or essentials while on the go. The removable shoulder strap allows it to be carried messenger style or pull out the stow-away handles for a more formal approach.
Temple x Uncrate Leather Case
The black on black leather and canvas case by Temple for Uncrate ($160) goes from bag to stand, displaying the iPad both vertically and horizontally at a 45-degree angle. Meant for travel and adventure, the well-crafted resilient bag brings "art to life."
Kenton Sorenson x Context
A sophisticated leather portfolio, the forthcoming Kenton x Context case ($TBD) is handmade in Wisconsin using vegetable tanned leather that will age beautifully over time.
Acme Made Skinny Sleeve
Water and stain resistant, the neoprene Skinny Sleeve ($30) from Acme Made envelops the iPad resulting in minimal bulk and maximum protection. Available in black or white.
Case-Mate Traveler
Comprised of durable felt and leather, The Traveler ($50) is an elegant folio-style case that features storage pockets for business cards or pens while securing the iPad with a magnetic flap.
Dodo Case
Handmade from high-quality bamboo, the Moleskine-style Dodo case ($50) is a sturdy case and stand that props the iPad at a 60-degree angle for easy viewing and use. The Dodo weighs less than one pound, offers full access to all of the ports and headset jacks and keeps it secure with its fitted foam corners.
Belkin Envelope
Fully enclosing the iPad, the charming Envelope ($50) from Belkin (above left) keeps it sure with a button and string closure and microfiber inner lining.
Paul Smith Wool Wrapper
A colorful sleeve, the Paul Smith cashmere pinstripe wrapper (£25) protects the iPad with foam padding and elastic corner ties, eliminating bulk and adding to the iPad's already-classy composition.

iPad - US$ 1 bilhão em receita

Vendas do iPad podem atingir US$ 1 bilhão em receita já no próximo mês
A Apple está perto de estabelecer um novo recorde com o sucesso das vendas do iPad. Uma análise feita pelo Yankee Group mostra que se o ritmo de compra dos consumidores for mantido nas próximas semanas, com a venda de 1,5 milhão de unidades do tablet, a empresa alcançará US$ 1 bilhão em receita já no mês de junho, uma marca jamais atingida por outro dispositivo. As informações são do ChannelWeb.
Carl Howe, diretor do grupo "Anywhere Consumer" do Yankee Group, é o autor da análise. "O iPad será o produto de consumo que mais rápido atingiu a marca de US$ 1 bilhão em receita, com menos de 80 dias desde o começo das vendas até a marca histórica", afirmou o pesquisador.
Para chegar à marca histórica, Howe utilizou um preço médio de US$ 645 para o iPad. Ele mesmo lembra que os aparelhos de 16 GB e 64 GB são até o momento os mais populares e que a previsão é apenas um cálculo aproximado.
No entanto, outros fatos reforçam a ''teoria do bilhão'': o iPad atingiu uma marca de 1 milhão de dispositivos vendidos na metade do tempo que o iPhone. Além disso, a Apple ainda não começou a vender os iPads no mercado internacional. Portanto, a probabilidade de atingir a marca histórica em receita com os tablets é alta.
Isso quer dizer que a Apple também terá resultados financeiros igualmente altos? A questão não pode ser simplicada assim. Segundo o analista, a Apple determinou um preço agressivo para o tablet com o intuito de construir um market share no que parece ser uma nova categoria de dispositivos. O alto investimento no desenvolvimento e gastos no lançamento do tablet poderão contrabalancear a conta final dos ganhos da empresa com o novo tablet.

10 Essential Apple iPad Productivity Apps for IT Pros
