Ok, am I missing something, or can you not order this from Targus yet? The price is there, and they talk about shipping charges being waived on anything over $65, but there is no way to put into a cart. Even if it was not available yet you would think that you could at least get it on the way.

No, I have been watching it for awhile, it is not available yet. Seems there are many cases that will not launch until closer to the release date.

Does it provide functionality to be a stand as well?

[Jake Storm]

Incipio make a similar case that looks like a nice leather and doubles as a stand too.

I asked our RIM rep when we can get the Blackberry Journal case (as during our iPad pilot it was very clear you need a case for a tablet in a corporate environment) they didn't offer any timeframe on availability.

A nugget shared is all RIM staff with Playbook are using various Kindle cases.

Ooh la la, that's one nice looking case! Thanks for sharing. If only you could order it lol.

[marinerman]

To answer the earlier question, yes it does double as a stand. I just want to get it on order!

[marinerman]

UPDATE!

I talked to the customers service agent who told me they are arriving the 13th, so ground shipping puts it here just before the playbook. I already ordered.

That looks super nice, but I am worried about cases with corners like that because of the bezel gestures. Does anyone know if access to the corners for gesturing will be compromised at all?

[Maine]

I was thinking the same thing. I feel the corners will interfere with the gestures.

[marinerman]

I had the same concerns, but for me the ease of portability and taking into meetings and such was more important. I can see myself taking it out of the case to use it a little more if that is indeed the issue.
