I recently reviewed my spiffy new iPad 2 case from Portenzo (Notebook with Stylus Holder, Morocco cover) and with that review I included some photographs and a video that pointed out a splinter near the volume rocker cutout in the wooden frame. I feel like I need to make this clarification about this.
It’s not a big deal. It may have seemed like a large splinter from the photographs, but as you will see in the photos below, I safely removed it without harm to the frame (or my fingers!) It was really superficial. I think a lot of folks may have been left with the impression from the photographs that it was more like a crack. I’ve gotten some questions about it in the ginormous Mac Rumors Portenzo thread and from the Portenzo Facebook Page. As you can see in the photos below, it really was just a small sliver/splinter of wood near the edge.
Sure, it left a small area that didn’t look as routed as the rest of the opening – if you look really closely – but it still is only a case. In the past 24 hours alone I’ve dinged and dented it more than once. I’m positive that I will continue to beat and bang this case up over its lifetime. It’s only a case. Should go get a case for my case? I think not!
Shout out to Kris and Team Portenzo once again for the quality, hand-crafted case.
You can purchase a case on the Portenzo website at http://shop.portenzo.com. Be prepared to wait a month or more right now for your case to be hand-crafted and sent out.
If you’re wondering about the stylus I use in the photos from the main review, it’s from Boxwave and can be purchased on Amazon
