Let’s face it:  no matter how wonderful a piece of gear for my iPad is, I’m never going to look as sharp using it as this guy in his suit does.  I mean, look at me!  That’s the face of a guy who was born to be a writer, you know what I’m saying?  No spokesmodel work in my immediate future, that’s for sure.

But I digress.  This here is a pretty cool piece of gear.  The folks at the Apple store are using a similar strap-based case to make using their iPads easier, and I myself have a case that I tested out that does the same thing.  The problem with the case is that’s it’s kind of big and bulky, a difficulty that the Pad Strap that you see above does not have.  And now the holiday promotion sale for it has been extended; it’s available for an MSRP of $39.95.  Don’t you think you should check it out?  It won’t make you look like a spokesmodel, but then, you’re a nerd anyway, right?  Function over form, baby!
