Any chance of this design being updated? the alternative redesign of the cloak for ipad 2/3 is nowhere near as awesome as this version.

Early adopter and my hinge finally broke.

This case was great! I have upgraded to the iPad 3 and would love a case exactly like this but with the magnetic on/off and open spot for camera. The lid as the stand was great for propping on my stomach as I was laying in bed. I saw the new iPad 2 version and I don't think I like the skinny stand. If you have an iPad 1 this is a perfect case!

Weighs way too much and won't stay standind

I've had mine since this first came out - and I've been very pleased! Love the different positions, and love the protection it provides. Yes, the flip out stands can snap - but mine only snapped after someone leaned on it! And unlike another reviewer, I had prompt response from Quirky - I had replacement parts within days, which were easy to install.

My only complaint is the weight - it is definitely heavy for a case. But, I am willing to trade the weight for the security I have with this!

THey should put "First Generation iPad Cover" in the title. I bought one for my sis-in-law. She has an iPad2...I guess those are smaller than iPad 1 ? but it fits like a sweater that's one size too big...works okay though, just kinda floppy and the flaps that flips out to make it stand are kinda flimsy and held in with a tiny nub. Maybe they could improve this for the next run.

while the stands are a little flimsy my dad loves this, keeps it super protected and has had it on his ipad for a year now with his ipad still in perfect condition.

The rigid plastic parts are under engineered and break soon after using. At least this has been my experience. This is also corroborated in the support forums. I also noticed that Quirky has a quirk about answering their customers immediately ... they don't. So, good luck on getting a response when yours breaks. Hey here's an idea: don't buy it!

I am overall really pleased with the cloak as it fulfills my needs. I mostly wanted something that would protect my iPad whilst it is in my bag at work and also allows me to use the iPad quickly. It is a little on the heavy side but the iPad is easily removed for such as those times when I'm using it as an e-reader.
My biggest praise goes to Quirky though. When by my own clumsyness broke the typing stand I contacted customer support to ask where I could by spares. Even though I purchased my cloak from a company in Australia Quirky sent me spare stands FOC.
My gratitudes to Quirky and most especially Bobby Guizio.

I'm really disppointed by the poor quality of this product. It's already broken a few months after i got it. I can't no more use to type, it's really bad.
