The black leather iPad 2 case arrived quickly. It's perfect. It smells like leather, it looks like leather. The black stitching exudes quality and taste. The positioning of the stand is flexible and works well. The outside-of-the-case magnetic closure looks like one side snaps into the other but actually, no pressure is needed since the magnet grabs. But the fake 'snap' keeps the magnet from sliding around. Nice, secure closure of the case. The iPad 2 slides in behind the leather 'frame' and inside the case there is a small tab of material that folds around the iPad which is secured with velcro. Nice. Thus the iPad 2 is secured even when the book cover is open. The openings work for cords and such. The camera hole is big enough so that if it is not quite perfectly centered, it still works fine. The band inside the book cover is a combination of elastic so you can stick your hand in it when standing and showing it to someone or having someone else hold it securely, and fabric in which you can insert a business card or two in the slots provided. Great for watching movies on the bus, using as a display stand in the house for a digital slideshow, and for handing to clients (the case flattens to its' original size when you push the display stand to its' original flat-to-the-back-of-the-book position; apparently it stays put with an internal magnet; that's what it feels like it is doing) to show them your photo portfolio or product line-up or whatever. The iPad 2 wakes and sleeps when you open and close the case. It's not light like cheap synthetics (who knows how safe those chemicals are?) probably would be. This is beautiful quality and well worth the $29.95 I paid (price included free shipping).

This is a major improvement in regards to stability when compared with a "smart cover ". However I would never travel using this case to protect my IPad. The only closure is a snap on the end of a strap. This moves from side to side, causing the so called smart cover technology ( which is nonsense talk meaning two simple magnets) keeps turning the IPad off and on while you carry it. This flaw also allows dust dirt and even objects to work themselves easily under the cover. I see can someone really hurting their IPad that way.
In the home, it's a wonderful cover. I use it everyday. there is no option for a portrait stand but in landscape it easily moves into different angles. It's thin enough to feel comfortable in your hands as I am holding it now. The fit is perfect, the leather is good quality and the stitching is perfect.
If I owned Roo-CASE I'd sell this as a cover / stand.... it only misses the mark because as a CASE I think it's not suitable and it IS sold as a case.

I have been looking for a case that will fit the IPad2 and have been through everything from a skin to Bluetooth keyboard leather case. After more than 10 cases and I won't mention the dollars spent. I found the rooCase and with the lower price I was thinking I was going to have the same thing as the others a lose fitting case where none of the holes (i.e. cameras, speaker, volume, etc.) line up. I was surprised to find that this case fit very well and was everything it said it was. I also found the magnetic snap to be very easy to use, and the stand works perfect for using Skip or even working with the keyboard. This is a great case and I have sense ordered another for my wife's Ipad.
