Check your App updates

If you have an iPod touch or iPhone, check for app updates with iTunes. There's a good chance some of your apps are ready to to be updated for the iPad.

Where are My iPad Only Apps?

iTunes pulls a cruel trick by putting your iPad only apps at the bottom of your apps list. Just scroll on down to the bottom. There they are.

You're Not Trapped in the iBookstore

There are gazillions of public domain books in the ePub format on the web. Some of those free books are available in the iBookstore for free, but not all. All of them should work with your iPad and show up in iBooks.

Here are a few places to get books:

Google books

Project Gutenberg

Once you've downloaded those books, just drop them into iTunes and sync them to your iPad.

Don't forget, you can also use the Kindle App for iPad.

Send SMS

Just because you don't have a phone in the iPad doesn't mean you can't send SMS to friends. There are tons of free sms apps in the App Store you can try out. Also, you can send SMS with AIM. Just fire up AIM and to send a text message to a friend, just send the message to your friend's phone number with +1 at the beginning.

Jacket for iPad 2 Review

2011-05-30T06:08:00.000Z

Incase Magazine Jacket for iPad 2

When the iPad 2 first came out there weren't many available cases for owners to buy because Apple had kept information about its dimensions and specs under tight control to ensure the hype didn't die down. At the time of the iPad 2 debut, only the Apple Smart Cover was available to offer some degree of protection of the tablet. In the weeks that followed the release of the iPad 2, I'm sure Apple made a few cool million dollars just from Smart Cover sales alone.

However, iPad 2 owners now have many choices to protect their beloved Apple tablets. And the jacket can helps you enjoying songs, movies well, you just need to upload movies to ipad 2, transfer pictures to ipad. And, to be fair, Apple's iPad 2 Smart Cover doesn't include a portrait stand.

Construction

The Incase Magazine Jacket offers the iPad 2 protection through hybrid elements. It has a front flap similar to the Smart Cover, without the magnets. It has a hard back to encase the iPad 2 with full exposure on the top and bottom of the tablet (easy access to the power button, headphone jack, and sync port). The speaker and the volume and mute buttons are exposed on the side and bottom corner.

The back case also has an elastic band which can be used to keep the front flap securely covered as needed. The back also has two plastic notches to catch the flap in order to turn the Magazine Jacket into a stand for better viewing angles.

Similar to the Smart Cover, the front flap can be manipulated to tilt the iPad 2 into a comfortable typing position.

Conclusion

I've been using the Incase Magazine Jacket for several weeks now and found it a good compromise between design, style, and practicality. It's not a beautiful or stylish case, but has the professional folio appearance. It more than adequately does the job of protecting the iPad 2, as well as offer the flexibility of multiple viewing angles.

If the front flap had microfiber lining to buff the screen when closed and a magnet to enable the instant-on feature - both features of the Smart Cover - then it would be a great case for $50.

iPad Sleeves & Bags - Incase Book Jacket for iPad 2
