I've seen Flipbook. Not really given it a proper try though.
Do you get a deal on The Times online/app version due to subscribing to the print version, of did you have to take out a separate subscription?

Nice
Which model did you go for?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a blue polyurethane Smart Cover for my iPad 2. I had originally wanted to get a shell folio case, but the one I wanted still hasn't been released, and as my iPad came a couple of weeks early I ended up just buying a Smart Cover so I had *something* for when it arrived.
It's good, but definitely a case of style over function. There is (obviously) no protection for the rear of the device (unfortunate given how easy it seems to be to mark it).
I looked around for shell cases purely for the rear, which also work with the Smart Cover... eventually settled on the Cool Bananas "SmartShell", so now my iPad 2 has full protection on both sides.
I also bought a Belkin neoprene sleeve from Amazon for around a tenner, to keep it in when out of the house. It was designed for the iPad 1, but still easily takes the iPad 2 + Smart Cover + SmartShell as the iPad 2 is just that bit slimmer. Quite a handy sleeve, with padding and a front pocket.
