iPad 2 case made from real carbon fibre

Carbon fibre is to guys like diamond is to girls, it is just so freaking sexy. The space-age material has the power to turn mundane everyday objects into super-cool geek-lust gadgets, and ladies and gentlemen, it doesn’t get any better than this.

This is a iPad 2 case made out of real carbon freakin’ fibre! What else is there to say?

Well there’s a few things. Although the XGear 360 Shield iPad 2 case is made out of real carbon fibre it doesn’t look like there’s much padding inside to cushion the iPad 2 from any drops or hard impacts.

All the ports and buttons of the iPad 2 are still accessible with the case attached and the 360 swiveling side hinge gives you quick access to the iPad’s screen. The hinge also allows you to prop the iPad 2 up for easy typing and movie watching.

Other than that, it’s just a pretty looking case with not much protection built in but, oh man, is it cool!
