While we all can appreciate the functional SmartCover Apple designed, sometimes your iPad needs a little more protection.  They finally came out with the Wingtip Portenzo model for iPad2, and it has a built-in stand that’s worth the add on cost.  All of Portenzo’s cases are top-quality and very functional.  One nice feature is that it is a disguise – at a glance, most people won’t realize it’s an iPad cover.  It’s also very functional.  They are made in the U.S. to your specifications, and the customer service is top notch.  I went with the standard black with red tips.
