Hi guys :)

I have a Android Tablet that has the same specifications in terms of size to the original iPad. I love it but I need a cover for it. I want it to have an inbuilt stand to. Any ideas? So far I'm thinking this; http://www.trademe.co.nz/Computers/Apple/Other/auction-391505839.htm

Thanks in advance :)

I have an Optima case for my 1st gen iPad, like this one
http://www.go-optima.com/web_eng/ipad/ipad1_1.html
Has been very satisfactory. The case is leather and the build quality is good. The screen covering part of the case is rigid and gives good protection. I prefer this one over the type in you link because it does not have a "frame" of material around the iPad screen, the iPad is secured into the case by the corners and one clip at top and bottom of iPad. iPad can sit flat or up in elevated position, very good for typing and watching media etc.

Cheers,
Joseph

We got a leather folio case that works a treat like this

Covers front and back, well built, and design includes a variable angle stand function. Simple and effective.

iPad 1 stuff in normally in the bargain bins by now. Missus picked this one up at JB HiFi
