Gear Diary Senas iPad Case Lineup Looks Great! photo

I’ve long been a fan of Sena’s cases. I love the styling, the build quality and the selection they tend to offer. I especially love that they offer premium leather cases at a reasonable price. Fact is, I think I have had at least one Sena case for every one of the different devices I have owned over the last few years. (Good thing they offer a wide selection.)

So I got to wondering what if anything they would be offering for the iPad. I was pleasantly surprised.

The company is initially offering four different cases for the iPad. All are genuine leather. All are available in a number of different colors. All will, I suspect, come with Sena’s outstanding craftsmanship. And best of all, all are available for pre-order at a discounted price.

You can check them all out over on Sena.com but here is a quick rundown of them all.

It is nice to see the higher-end accessory companies starting to release their iPad accessories. These look great and we hope to have review units and full reviews soon.

    Used to be a big fan of Sena cases, until I had to return a defective case in 2007. After replacing the case, I was sent and responded to several emails by Rhonda Doncaster in their customer relations department. The tone and attitude of her emails has made me stay away from Sena ever since. As much as I liked their case design, I think their customer relations needs improvement.

      I am along time Sena Cases customer, love and enjoy their products and customer service, I developed a relationship with their staff by writing or calling to ask questions about products or items I would like for them o offer. I dealt my times with Ms. Doncaster, I know for a fact that she left Sena in the fall of 2006, due to serious health issues, and never returned and could not have assisted you in 2007. Below are a sample of replies I have received or seen in other publications from this former Sena Professional. not only was she kind and helpful, she was always positive and had inspirational messages at the sign off of her e-mails. I loved Sena Products since I first purchased their Palm Treo line of cases and will remain a loyal customer of their high end luxury products for their quality and their policies to assist with helpful return or exchange when necessary.

      I questioned Sena about the likelyhood of having a case for the 7100i. I had one for my Ipaq
      4350 and loved it. http://www.senacases.com. No I don’t work for them, but I had one and liked it. They offer the swivel clip and they are quality cases.

      Here is their reply.

      Thank you for your interest in Sena Cases. The blackberry 7100i case is in the design phase and will be offered on a introductory promotion in November 2005. I shall send you an e-mail when the introduction is about to occur. Look forward to serving you soon!

    Palmfox- wow that sounds really bad and so totally different from my numerous experiences with Sena. I have been buying their products for years and have never had anything but a fabulous experience dealing with them and that holds for both orders and returns. I don’t know this for a fact but I would lay odds on the fact that if you dealt with them now you would have a totally different experience.
