Can you tell me positive/negatives of the Belkin cover and the Switcheasy? You have both? Do you like both of them? Did either one crack when you tried to take it off? If anyone has both, please let know which you prefer and why. I am trying to decide which one I want to get. Thanks!

I didn't like the belkin because it was clear, any debris under was visible and the rubber texture on it absorbed grease from your hands, always wiping it down. Neither cracked while removing or installing. I like the rubber coating on the switcheasy as far as grip and as far as aesthetics, the switcheasy looks better on the device, IMO.

This thing is amazing! Love the softness and my iPad feels more like a solid rock when holding it now. I now have complete protection to compliment my smart cover. Yay!
 
Just ordered one on grey, which says in stock, so let's see. I ordered a Canvas in black and had good luck with the process, maybe I'll get lucky again.

Mine just arrived today and so far, so good. Quick shipping and I like the product. The rubbery grip is very nice and it doesn't really add to the thickness or weight. I'm 2 for 2 with my Switcheasy experience, but obviously others have had plenty of issues.
 
Finally pulled the trigger on the coverbuddy!

Too bad the black is on backorder.... oh well, my ipad 2 is still on backorder too...
 
Dammit, they added two new colors on the website, cream and red. What a bummer, red is what I wanted, but I settled for grey. Guess I'll be buying another one.

Clear is perfect for my white iPad2.
Funny thing is, that even with it installed with a Smart Cover, it's as thin as a naked iPad 1. :D

Has anyone felt both the rubber (color) and plastic (clear) covers? I like the rubbery feel of my incase casing but would like to have a clear case as well. How's the grip on the clear cover?

The grip of the clear is similar to any polycarbonate case, to be honest. It's certainly a lot grippier than the naked Aluminium!
Because it's flush with the glass, you really don't notice it's there. Cleaning the screen is easy at it always was, with no debris getting wedged in the sides, which is what would happen, if the cover protruded over the edge of the glass.
 
just got a refund from swticheasy due to back order of the clear case.... :(

anyone has the same situation?

haven't heard a thing from them since i ordered it. sent an email and their response was a 2-3 day shipping delay. that was on the 14th. its now the 20th and still nothing. i'm starting to get a little annoyed with them.
 
got a email a couple hours ago with a tracking number from them as well getting my clear coverbuddy soon!!! :D
 
I ordered a black when they were briefly in stock 2 days ago or so but got no verification. Why?? I sent SE an email asking status... Did others get emails when you placed an order?
 
is it not possible for dust or something to get stuck between the coverbuddy and the iPad and cause scratches? I had this happen with another apple product of mine and was wondering if it was strictly because the plastic case I had.

I backordered and didn't get any conformation. Emailed their support to see what's going on but haven't answered yet.
