IPAD 2 BUYERS’ GUIDE<br />
ACCESSORY GUIDE<br />
Griffin Reveal<br />
Reveal is the closest match to MetroLpad - the best<br />
playthrough case for the first-generation iPad - that we’ve<br />
found so far. While the price is higher, we really like the<br />
combination of a clear polycarbonate back and<br />
black rubber cushion around the edges. It’s simple,<br />
clean, and protective, showing off the iPad 2 back.<br />
$50<br />
Simplism Silicone Case<br />
We’ve seen tons of low-end,<br />
low-priced silicone shells<br />
in the past; Simplism’s is<br />
different. The buttons on<br />
the iPad 2 are covered, and<br />
both the headphone and<br />
Dock Connector port have<br />
protective, flip-open flaps. The silicone has an anti-dust<br />
coating to repel particles that would be gathered<br />
by static. A version with a front lid is also available.<br />
$30<br />
XtremeMac<br />
TuffWrap Shine<br />
Almost identical to ShockStop,<br />
the neutral-looking TuffWrap<br />
doesn’t have the same<br />
crystalline layer on its<br />
underside. Buttons<br />
remain fully usable<br />
while they’re covered.<br />
$35<br />
Pinlo XyberPro 2<br />
XyberPro 2 is composed of two separate pieces: a soft rubber<br />
shell and a hard plastic X that fits underneath it. The result is<br />
plenty of coverage with a reinforced frame, even including<br />
port protection. We liked the speaker opening,<br />
which is a series of shrinking diagonal lines.<br />
Translucent grey and blue models are available.<br />
$40<br />
HandStand<br />
HandStand 2<br />
In addition to the plastic body,<br />
HandStand 2 has a hand strap<br />
on the back that rotates all<br />
the way around -<br />
potentially useful in<br />
work situations.<br />
$50<br />
