I've asked this in the previous thread right before it was closed so I'll ask again...

What is a good clamshell case for the iPad 4?

I want something I can use on my lap (or on a pillow which is on my lap), and support the screen at a laptop-like viewing angle.

Somebody suggested the "New Trent Airbender" which looks nice...

People actually buy these?! Might as well get an 11" Air...
I'm trying to decide between using my iPad 4 or selling it and buying a Macbook Air... Difficult choice since both are very awesome machines. (I only use both from the couch though)

There's a way to get emulators on non-jail broken devices through a website. Someone posted about it in one of the iPhone threads recently.
I'd be curious too... I'm guessing it involves having a developer account and compiling the binaries yourself or resigning existing IPA files.

Is it possible to wirelessly add videos to the iPad built-in video library over wifi?

I know you can sync to iTunes using wifi and that would work but requires it running on a PC 24/7, etc...

Heh, I'm taking care of my newborn so this was a nice surprise to see at 3:00am EST. Ordered the 64GB AT&T (black) edition.

Anybody have recommendations on a nice case for the iPad Air?

Here's what I'm hoping for:
  • Light-weight
  • Built-in stand at different positions
  • Looks like a nice book (like a moleskine, I think?)
The Contegra case from Pad And Quill is beautiful (and expensive!!) but it seems a little bulky.

Also ... what is the best stylus for note-taking in meetings, etc?

Are there any cases for the iPad out that have a strong hinge allowing me to use the iPad like a laptop at any angle?

Something like this:


That case is the CruxCase which isn't coming out until January 29th, 2014.

ClamCase is also making one but also won't be released until January 2014...

Basically I just want something to prop up my iPad on my lap (or on a pillow) while I'm sitting on the couch so I don't have to look down at the device and get a stiff-neck. I also want something strong so I can touch the screen while it's propped up.

Any suggestions or do I have to wait for the above two cases to be released?

Anybody compare games like XCOM on the iPad Air versus the iPad Air 2?

I'm wondering if it runs any smoother...

Tested.com did. It makes a difference.
Thanks! I'll take a look at their video.

What is my best option (besides the trash) for fixing a cracked screen on a very old iPad 2? Apple wants $249.99 which is pretty laughable. :(

How do you folks hold the iPad Pro while sitting on the couch?

I feel like I need to rest it at an angle on a pillow, but the angle is never quite right. The iPad Air was light enough to hold, but the Pro is just a tad bit heavy.
