The Case: Another Wonderful Moleskine-Like iPad Case

Fake Moleskine Notebooks has become incredible into a complete gadget case category, however ironically Moleskines own effort is kind of horrible. The objective is that you simply cover your new-fangled tablet or cellphone or e-reader with an old-fangled faux-leather book-cover. Concerning tried two of which out, the very first Dodocase and the The Case from Pad & Quill, both for your iPad. I bought the Dodocase myself, as well as the Pad & Quill case was sent for review.

These waiting on the common and good-looking Dodo iPad case, the secondary school cheerleader of tablet-carriers, might instead think about the evenly pretty The Case from Pad & Quill. Mimic the Dodo case in design, it's obviously inspired by the Moleskine notebook, featuring its faux-leather cover. Then things start to get distinct.

The Dodo has a bamboo frame in the card cover, and The Ipad leather case is fashioned from Baltic Birch, routed to within 1/20,000th inch of their life and then stuck with rubber bumpers to keep the iPad snug inside. Furthermore , it has cutouts round the edge so you can reach the iPads buttons and holes.

The Case also ditches the Moleskine elastic band in favor of a press-stud closing strap like that found on a Filofax, and adds a nifty little way to get the iPad back out. Rather than keeping the case upside-down and shaking, a red-ribbon book-marker lies beneath the iPad. Pulling on the subjected end lifts the tablet from the case.


This isn't to state that the Dodocase is poorly made (well, apart from its iPad-dropping habit). You should choose whether you need a lightweight, slimline case that promises less protection, or maybe a juggernaut that should very likely last longer versus the iPad it protects additionally it is makes it somewhat awkward to manage.

What type must i like? None. I have concluded on Apples own case, which is cheap (ish), slimline and protecting. If these two faux-Moleskines could be identified as Victorian chaperones, making sure that their charges remain virgin and unmarked at the expense to be remarkably intrusive, the Apple case is a bit more like a Durex Featherlite: it gives defense, nevertheless , you no longer know its generally there.

It's also possible to buy a smaller version for your iPhone from your Milwaukee-based company. This tends to cost you $40, and the iPad version is $55, $5 more than the Dodo, and definately will rise to $65 sometime in the near future. As they are hand-made, these cases too have a waiting period, even though it is just 2-3 weeks compared to the 4-6 weeks for the Dodo. That might all change now The Case makes its distance to these pages.
