Are all of the cases listed on their online store also fully stocked in their stores? Anyone back from a recent trip to their brick and mortar store know which cases they are stocking? Slim pickings on launch day, but hoping for more of an assortment now.

I just got back from an Apple store here and they have the official case, an incase case (which comes in many colors), and also a belkin sleeve (which doesn't have a stand). I ended up getting the official case.

Beverly Center LA has apple case, the incase ones, and belkin ones.

I settled on trying the apple one first. They said on accessories you can return without restocking fee.

I saw the same in MA. I got the apple case; I think it got a bad wrap during the "first look" in January. It has so much form and function that I'm not sure I'd enjoy the iPad as much without it. The wedge the cover makes creates a great angle for a table and lap viewing with no sliding or wobbling when you type or control the screen.

On My iPhone, or my iPad?
I bought the Apple case on launch day, and I absolutely hate it. If I can find the box I'm taking it back asap. It offers little to no protection. It allows a multitude of dust to get in. I am now using the incase neoprene sleeve and love it.

Any cases that just protect the back side? Just need a case that protects that back when I place it down and slide it in a table, no need for a folio. I see incipio has a feather coming out, but what's in store now? Don't really like the gel rubber iPhone style cases, has to be something hard.

I got the incase neoprene plus sleve and it is waay too big. It is obviously a netbook case repackaged, so I am going to return it for the slim sleeve.

My apple store in San Diego has the rubber back cover cases is a lot of colors.

I'm receiving the Apple Case today. If it sucks, you better believe I'm taking it back. I've always had good luck with Incase products.

I actually really like apple case for the iPad more than the incase. It protects and i like it how it won't be too bulky after putting it on like the incase.
