Mobility Digest Review: Gumdrop Drop Series Case for iPad 3 / iPad 2

April 8, 2016October 9, 2012 by Kristofer Brozio

Ah the iPad, there’s no doubt it’s popular that’s for sure, but it’s also expensive and rather fragile. Personally if I’m going to pay four, five or six hundred dollars for something I have to have a case for it as I don’t want anything happening to it and I’ve got kids and it seems accidents always happen. if I’m going to spend that much money on a device I’m most certainly not going to want some thin silicone thing, I’m going to want some serious protection like what I have for review today, the Gumdrop Drop Series Case for iPad 3 and iPad 2. This is an iPad case that will most certainly offer you a great deal of protection and really protect your investment, this is a case I can get behind and promote. So read on to learn more and see how it looks on an iPad 3…

Mobility Digest Review: TenOne Design Magnus iPad 2 Stand

February 15, 2012 by Tom Ratas

TenOne Design are probably best known for their Pogo Sketch line of styluses for the Apple mobile devices. Recently they released their first iPad 2 stand called the Magnus. What differentiates this stand from others in the market are the built in magnets and its design aesthetic.

The built in magnets allow the iPad 2 to firmly lock into the stand by interacting with the iPad 2’s smart cover magnets giving the Magnus a minimalist appearance letting the iPad 2 take center stage.

Once the Magnus is locked onto the iPad 2 it is securely in place, even requiring two hands to separate the 2 components. TenOne Design uses the same machine aluminum style found on the iPad 2 creating a very organic looking pairing as the Magnus could have been easily designed by the folks at Cupertino.
