Dodocase’s Bookback skin for the iPad
On of my biggest complaints in yesterday’s iPad 2 wish-list was that the back of the current iPad is just too slippery. It never feels secure in the hand, and if you tuck it under your arm or prop it on the arm of a couch, you’re looking at imminent disaster.
And as if by magic, today I got a pitch from the Dodo people, behind the famous Moleskine-like Dodocase for the iPad. The new product is a simple rear skin for the iPad, and also the iPhone, which is made from the exact same leather-like material that covers the Dodocase itself.
The skins are called Bookbacks, and come as self adhesive, reusable skins, debossed with a name and logo in black or red. They only offer scratch protection for the aluminum rear panel — you’ll need a proper case if you plan to sling your iPad in a bag — but for improving the feel and grippiness of the iPad, the Bookbacks look ideal.
They’re not too pricy, either. The iPad version is $20, and the little iPhone model is just $9.
