What sort of cover or whatever do you use and more importantly, what's the best and most functional one out there?

just got my wife one of these, so kudos on the timing!

one that folds over and becomes a stand is the best. It makes typing on it so much easier. Usually the stand can display the tablet at 2 angles. (low for typing, and high for video watching/ reading.)

This. I got a leather one at Best Buy mobile for $60, but the brand name eludes me. One of the long ends is magnetized, so it stays on the tablet. Highly recommended.

They all suck - impede your ability to type or carry, and inevitably make it 3x the size or break.

My advice: get one of those rubber cover things for like $15 and KEEP OUT OF REACH OF YOUR KID. Easier said than done, but the little homie don't be touching dat ipag.

i have the apple smart cover which is held on by magnets and turns itself on and off when you open and close it. it also does the fold over thing and works as a stand. its easily the most functional one there is. i also have a sclear plastic back cover for protection made by enki. im sure now there is someone that makes an all in one cover

i have the normal apple cover which works fine. at work i use one of the ones that has a bluetooth keyboard and a leather case...i use it when interviewing people or to take notes at other meetings.

This is the reason for the thread: I was at Best Buy, checked out the Apple one, liked it, checked out a couple more that had some of the problems that LooGAR described and decided to see who knew what.

Thanks guys.
