Looks nice Dan! Thanks for sharing.
I'm with alabama on this. I didn't realize they had a cool cover like yours. I assume they have several choices? I'll have to plan for a Christmas gift request, maybe?! I ended up with a cheaper "INVELLOP" brand. It was recommended and had good reviews (save for several with ipad3s that didnt work so well with it). I was a bit disappointed in the quality of the one I received, but it is not bad. just not as nice as I expected. But it'll serve a purpose.
I like Apples. Especially Honeycrisp.

Just 2 basic designs Red and Black, although I believe being hand made they are each a bit unique i.e.. each one is hand finished so the distressing is all different. My spine is not nearly as distressed as the red one on the website. The black version is a bit plainer but i think it has a more elaborate spine design. The BOOKBOOK looks like a very worn journal or similar book. the black one is marked as volume XII, a nod to the company's name Twelve South. But it is very strong but has the feel of a comfortable favourite old volume.

The iPad cover Lock/Unlock setting is the same on the New iPad as it is on the iPad 2, both have the on/off option.
Not exactly. Apple changed the polarity of the magnets, so if you have an iPad 2 case it may not trigger the wake/sleep function of the new iPad.

Something else to consider for anyone undecided between iPad 2 or iPad 3:
iPad 1st Gen has 256 MB ram and crashes often on apps needing lots of memory. Using Tabs in the browser, pages need to keep downloading all the time.
iPad 2nd Gen has 512 MB ram, as does the iPhone 4S (unsure on other models).
iPad 3rd Gen has 1 GB ram, and apps that used to crash on iPad 1 now seem fine. Maybe less Logos crashes, but too new to know yet. Of course the new HD screen makes text way better. Speed is faster than Gen 1. Browser sessions way better, and less page refresh / re-downloads, due to increased ram.
Bottom line: The iPad 3 has more going for it than only the new display.

So then when I turn the feature "off" it should lock and unlock with the old covers, right?! [;)] Because when I have it "on" it doesn't work right...so it's just that all the bits have been flipped?!

One of the cheapest ways is to get a "refurbished" model from Apple. It comes with a full warranty, and looks brand new. Often, these are just returned models.

i used to be one of you, aimlessly wandering around in the desert of oblivion. . . then, one day, I got a call from mother-in-law, with an early birthday surprise.
lol, but, I feel ya. I was looking to save up for a Fire one day. You never know. Alabama is right though--and mine is a refurb.

Just got a case from www.thesnugg.com and I highly recommend it. Nicer than any of the cases I've seen so far and it's only $29.99. Fits well, utilizes the wake/sleep function, has a strap that helps you hold the iPad when the case is open in the portrait position and works as a stand with 2 different positions in landscape. Also has a stylus holder, if you plan on using one. I use Notes Plus at meetings, so I like to have a stylus handy.

How much weight does it add, David? Is it significant? Thanks.

It weighs 10.6 ounces. Not significant in my book.
