Geek Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 <div class="KonaBody"><p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/wood-ipad-2-cover.jpg" alt="wood-ipad-2-cover" title="wood-ipad-2-cover" width="620" height="279" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14277" /></p> <p>Are you looking for a gorgeous wood cover for your iPad 2? Check out <a href="https://www.miniot.com/">Miniot</a>’s offering, it has all the features of Apple’s magnetic smart cover except that it’s made from beautiful wood. </p> <p>If the appearance wasn’t enough to grab you, it’s priced at €50, which is actually cheaper than the official Apple leather smart cover for iPad 2. Now, if I can ever <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2011/03/15/check-ipad-2-stock-in-your-area/">find an iPad 2 in stock</a> somewhere on planet Earth, I’ll buy one of these in a heartbeat. </p> <p>Check out the video of the Miniot Wood Cover in action: <span id="more-14276"></span> <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="610" height="373" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4SI6K-k_rBo?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p> <p>As you can see, the behavior is just like the smart cover and you can peel it back and use it in all the same positions. Personally, I find this much more attractive than the flamboyantly colored plastic covers or the leather covers from Apple.</p> <p>The Miniot Cover for iPad 2 is available <a href="https://www.miniot.com/">starting March 25</a> and costs €50 (about $71) which includes free engraving. The company is based in Holland, but we emailed them to see if they’ll ship to the USA. I’d expect interest in this thing to be really high, so hopefully they will send it across the pond. Better yet, maybe Apple will see the product and pick it up for distribution in their Apple Stores?</p> <p>Daryl found this via <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2011/03/24/wooden-ipad-2-cover-outsmarts-apples-smart-cover/">TUAW</a>, thanks for the submission!</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/RxvrLNSttpOmikNtndi6v3UPtF4/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/RxvrLNSttpOmikNtndi6v3UPtF4/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/RxvrLNSttpOmikNtndi6v3UPtF4/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/RxvrLNSttpOmikNtndi6v3UPtF4/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=daAmMlkoank:uuvrs9uCQQk:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=daAmMlkoank:uuvrs9uCQQk:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=daAmMlkoank:uuvrs9uCQQk:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=daAmMlkoank:uuvrs9uCQQk:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=daAmMlkoank:uuvrs9uCQQk:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=daAmMlkoank:uuvrs9uCQQk:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=daAmMlkoank:uuvrs9uCQQk:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/daAmMlkoank" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
