- I went with the OEM Journal case .....it just looks more "professional", both are nice and serve their purpose. For total protection I went with the Otterbox, depending on the day or occasion depends on which one I use. I also have the OEM black envelope, which I rarely use. Got them all on sale one time or another

- Anyone use any cases that include a kickstand but does not fold up like a book/wallet? I got the Silicrylic case by Incipio which seems to add a lot of protection to the Playbook and also has a kickstand, but it does seem to add a considerable amount of extra weight. But I've been known to be clumsy and I don't trust other people to be careful with the PB if they happen to play with it, so this is for just in case.01-30-12 04:56 PMLike 0

Highly unlikely...the Journal case is not only real leather (animal skin), but the grain of the case is the tiny pebble grain finish typical of goat skin, which is inexpensive and quite plentiful in Asia, and the preferred skin for cases/brief cases manufactured in that region due to its durability, fine appearance, and low cost.copperoak likes this.01-30-12 05:17 PMLike 1 - Highly unlikely...the Journal case is not only real leather (animal skin), but the grain of the case is the tiny pebble grain finish typical of goat skin, which is inexpensive and quite plentiful in Asia, and the preferred skin for cases/brief cases manufactured in that region due to its durability, fine appearance, and low cost.
I was shopping in Staples this weekend, and I purchased the journal case to have in addition to my convertible case. I like the convertible better for it versatility, but, I must say, I rather like the way the BlackBerry symbol is more prominent on the cover. Anyway, I wanted to have both of them.accord97 likes this.01-30-12 05:27 PMLike 1 - I must have bought a 3rd party convertable case (although I'm sure it said Blackberry on the case) as:
1- Its leather
2- I have never taken it out of the case since I bought it and charge it every night
3- Smack it as much as I want it has never slipped out of the grooves
4- It is equiped with an elastic strap to hold it closed01-30-12 05:52 PMLike 0 - I got this converter case for my wife's playbook: Blurex Slim Leather Portfolio Case With 2 Tier Stand for Blackberry Playbook
It's just about the best case I could buy. It's leather, not bulky at all, the hinge is open in the middle to allow charging, it fits securely without any fear of it sliding out, when used as a stand, it stays put in any of the groove positions and can resist a good bit of bumping. It set me back all of $25.
The "clips" hold it closed quite securely, and don't seem to have loosened at all over the past few months.
I can't think of anything bad to say about it.artie likes this.01-30-12 06:07 PMLike 1 - Well. Where did you get that from - the J. Peterman catalogue? (barump bump!)

Black Leather Sleeve En/Fr Pack F/ Playbook (vf): Amazon.ca: Electronics
Currently $13 instead of $50! I prefer sleeves as I like the device as-is when in use. I find booklet style cases if thrown in with my bag have a greater possibility of getting stuff lodged in between the device and the cover flap, as has been my experience with my Kindle and a case similar to the PB Journal case.01-30-12 06:31 PMLike 0 - The Blurex case looks identical to the case i just picked up from Brookstone.com for about $10, with 20% off coupon code ("20buy"). It is a clip case from Brookstone. This is a great case that can be used in the charging cradle-if you fold the front cover back.
I have the journal case also and a Brookstone leather portfolio case and use the clip case more often because it is so convenient.01-30-12 08:50 PMLike 0
