Ipad Case Recommendations, If You Be So Kind?

[kerching]

Bit obvious from the title I suppose

My new ipad4 is presently winging its way through the logistics network of the world and will be with me shortly

I need something for it to live in.  I have been looking at the Griffin and the Otterbox defender amongst others. I think I have narrowed it down to the Otterbox defender as the Griffin does not appear to have a screen protector.

What is everybody else using?      What would you recommend and what would you steer clear of like the plague?

Many  thanks

life proof for the ipad looks amazing

Mmmmm

I like the Lifepro one BUT I think I am going for the Otterbox Defender

Am I correct in presuming that the Defender fits the Ipad 2 Ipad 3 and Ipad 4?

Just trawling the 'net to find best price/availability now.....but will not order for a couple of days until this thread has had a few more responses/comments

I could think of a few unorthodox uses for the Lifepro if waterproof to 100m though-but :innocent

I have the griffin on iPad and quite happy with it so far. Although have noticed that when writing a letter it can be difficult to get to tap right to edges, but maybe I'm not aligning paper correctly?

The griffin has a screen protector, although its probably a good idea to put another sticky one over the top as if it does get scratched you can just put another on.  

I got the griffin off amazon much cheaper than anywhere else at the time.

Griffin does have a screen protector plastic and is a very robust one have had the otter box also and like wise good for the job I personally prefer the griffin

Also it's an iPad 3 as 4 is yet to be released

Personally I do not care one way or the other 3 or 4

All the adverts call it a 4    So I am calling it a 4!

The trouble with a case like that is it gives massive protection but you get charged a massive amount on flights for xtra baggage

i have the Otterbox Defender for my iPad3, what I can say is it's robust but adds a lot of weight.

I use my iPad with the Click NIC Cert software, which is still a bit buggy but they are getting there, so mounting the iPad on the lid/tray at a slight angle works really well and better than holding it in your hand IMO.
