After watching this video I'm not so sure they are correct as it sure looks like it fits nice to me! I may have to get one now, as the Otterbox case I'm using is a bit bulky for normal use. What are your thoughts?&nbsp;</p>

I like it (or at least the idea). I've got a similar one from XtremeMac, and it's cheaply made and falling apart already, but it's great, as it's lighter than anything else that I've tried. I'm a ten-minute walk from an Apple Store, so I'll check it out tomorrow.

UPDATE: Have it, in dark gray, and the fit and finish is top quality (better be for the price!), easy to use, the magnets work as they should, and it's light weight. Downside is that I find it a bit slippery.
