To find a suitable and affordable protection for the iPad is not easy at the large number of available options. I was lucky to have decided on the Belkin case. The iPad will not budge and can not slide in the custom envelope. Once you get used to the "grip" (by the protruding Passepartout the Ipad is very good in the hand), almost there is no longer any danger that it may slip out of your hands. It is true that the iPad thus appears larger. But to me is the protection in this case important. All in all a good buy!
