The Thin Folio is a convertible portfolio case designed for the business professional. It sports an integrated viewing stand for full coverage protection of the iPad 2. Additionally, the Thin Folio features multiple card slots with transparent ID card pocket. 

Other features include a magnetic closure that automatically “wakes” or “sleeps” the iPad upon opening or closing, full access to switches, ports and jacks and multiple viewing angles. The Thin Folio is available in Black Carbon Fiber or Ostrich textures.

The Zip Folio is a zippered briefcase style portfolio case for the iPad 2. The case allows users to store daily essentials and the tablet in one. The interior frame offers a secure fit for iPad 2 and offers organization pockets for papers, pen or stylus, and business cards.
