Is anyone familiar with the Zagg Folio iPad2 covers? Or if you have an iPad can you suggest a good cover. The ones at the Apple Store only covers the front and not the back of the system.

Thanks!

I use the Apple cover on the front, and a plastic cover from Belkin on the back.

They have a better selection on Amazon.com. That's where I buy mine and they are way cheaper.

The iPad Smart Cover is one of the best things Apple has ever designed, and that’s saying something. I got the one in black leather and love it. I, too, am looking for a back cover that doesn’t interfere with the Smart Cover.

Take a look at the Coverbuddy from Switcheasy.com. I have one and am very happy with it. It works with the Apple Smart Cover and the slight texture to the surface makes it very grippable.

You have GOT to be kidding me. I bought one of those for my wife. $65.00 for that POS cover? Apple should be embarassed to sell such a lousy "cover".
It comes off a lot. If you fold it to stand it up you have to be careful touching the screen or it falls over.
My wife and I are both disgusted with the lousy quality of that "cover".
I expect better from Apple.

If it comes off "a lot" then you and your wife must be a good deal rougher on your iPad than I am on mine! It does come off but only when I do something clumsy, since it's only held by a magnet. But that's a pretty strong magnet. It is something that should be considered by anyone wanting an iPad cover, so it's good that you brought it up.

I stand it up to do Skype/FaceTime and watch videos. It’s meant to prop it up, not support heavy swiping or typing in that configuration. The cover is attached with magnets and is designed to come off easily.
