With the iPad 2 finally revealed at yesterday's event, the Apple store has already unleashed a new wave of tablet protectors called the iPad 2 Smart Cover.
Like Apple's latest tablet, the iPad 2 Smart Cover is thin, lightweight and very sleek. Since both the new gadget and the protector have integrated magnets, the iPad 2 slides into the cover easily and keeps it secure. For those who are expecting more from the product, the sheath can also be transformed into a stand. You can position it in the upright position for proper video viewing or set it as a keyboard stand for a comfortable typing position.
The iPad 2 Smart Cover is available in multiple colors and costs $39 for the ones made from polyurethane and $69 for those made from leather.
