A Stellar iPad Case

ByMike Moffit

A great device deserves a great case, and lately I’ve been outfitting my first-generation iPad in the black Booq Taipan Spacesuit for iPad. The futuristic look of the slightly shimmery neoprene case blends well with the sleek aesthetic of the iPad.

I love the snug but not overly tight fit of the case; my iPad slides in easily without my needing to stretch the case over the iPad. I prefer a sleeve-style case that will fully protect my iPad when it’s in my bag, so the Spacesuit’s full coverage and durable zipper were a major draw for me. As an added bonus to the durability of the case, the Spacesuit manages to be slim and light while providing a nice cushion due to the textured material.

Available in black, silver or berry, the Booq Taipan Spacesuit for iPad fits either the first-generation iPad or iPad 2 (with or without an Apple Smart Cover). The Spacesuit is currently on sale for $21.99 (regularly $29.99) and available here.

  • Need to Charge Multiple iPhones or iPods?

    This day in age a vast majority of us have iPods–and now many of you have iPhones. As much as we love our gadgets, it can sometimes be a pain to charge one at a time, so which one do you pick?

    Leave it to Griffin Technology to solve that issue–one that I am surprised was not figured out sooner! The “PowerDock 2 Charging Cradle for iPod and iPhone”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/73013 will let you charge two iPhones, two iPods or an iPod and an iPhone at once! It can sit on your desk, beside, by the front door, wherever you will remember to charge it. This gadget won’t hook up to your Mac–it has no ports other than the AC on the back–but I like the fact that you don’t have to have everything plugged into your Mac at all times.

    I also like the “Griffin PowerDock 2”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/73013 because the thought of having my iPod or iPhone in the dock is more calming to me than just leaving my Apple gadget on the desk (in case it fell off–iPhone screen replacements are expensive!). A $39.99 price point seems fair to charge your devices to me! Most single iPod/iPhone chargers are about $19.99-$29.99 and this way you don’t have to worry about buying a sync cable as well. It’s also made out of brushed aluminum, which matches the MacBook Pros and iMacs very nicely (which is obviously super important!).
