Hasta La Gadget!

We have seen surprisingly few iPad accessories so far, but RadTech has just filled the vacuum single-handed. The selection of cases, screen-protectors and a stylus is a mix of new products and re-purposed iPhone accessories, but worth a look if only because it poses the question “What will you carry your iPad in?”

RadTech offers a couple of shoulder bags, which will likely get a few more men carrying “purses” (I’m European, so I already carry a man-bag). But of more interest is the protective sleeve, a $30 neoprene pouch which protects the iPad from scratches whilst it sits inside another bag.

It suffers from one problem, though. Because it is simply a re-purposed netbook sleeve, it has no rigid screen protector. I’ll probably go with my regular solution: a bubble-lined Tyvek envelope from Fed-Ex, with a piece of cardboard gaffer-taped inside. It’s waterproof, offers as much protection as neoprene and makes for an excellent disguise. Better it’s free, and the Fed-Ex man brings me one every time he visits.

So tell us, what will you be using to carry your iPad? A purse, a new bag, a pocket of your old backpack or perhaps even a giant pants-pocket. Answers in the comments.
