Great alternative folio style case for the Asus Transformer

[iastonish]

Just got my Transformer today and went to Staples to see what sort of cases they had available. Anyway, long story short, I came across this folio/zip up case...

SOLO? Studio Collection iPad? & eReader Jacket, Brown, 9.7" | Staples?

It's listed for the ipad/kindle dx, but it ended up fitting great. There are some downsides to it which I will list below, but all in all it's a great alternative case with the limited selection available.

Pros:

- Very well padded case
- Nice design, very simple
- Holds the transformer in place well
- Soft interior which shouldn't scratch the screen at all
- Zips up for extra protection/reinsurance
- Can charge the Transformer while in the case

Cons:

- Covers up the top volume rocker slightly
- Covers up the power button fully

I got it for $25 in-store, online it's a little bit more. If you could deal with those two cons, it's a fine case.

If you have any questions, just ask.

Nice. Will stop by my local store tomorrow to check it out.

After your recommendation, I went out and got one last night. It works great for my needs and wasn't too expensive. So if a proprietary case comes out for the transformer, I have plenty of room in the budget to switch.

Thanks for the tip.

Picked one up as well. Not bad.

does it fold all the way back? or only open like a book?

Looks good! Will have to keep this in mind once mine gets here.

It opens like a book but can fold all the way though its not designed to.
