Gear Diary Rokform RokLock v3 Protective Case Adds Functions and More photo

We reviewed Rokform’s case for the iPhone 4S last summer and were super impressed with it. The design is decent on its own, but when you add in the functionality it offers, it truly impresses. (Read the review here.) Here’s what we had to say about it at the time:

I didn’t think I would like this case… errr… system as much as I do. But I do! I like the looks. I like the flexibility. I like the number of different options that can be purchased to work with it. No, I don’t love the price which, if you load up on accessories can get a bit pricey but the case itself is just $39 which is a great value.

Well now the company had released an iPad case that offers a similar design and functionality. The Rokform RokLock v3 Protective Case offers solid protection and added flexibility.

The case is unusual in itself. Add in the flexibility of its “add ons” and you have a neat concept that, like the iPhone case, is more a system than a case. What kinds of add ons? There’s…

Optional Maglok magnetic mount kit fits discretely behind the anti-slip hex grips, the MagLok includes 6 rare earth magnets so your new iPad or iPad 2 will stick to any magnetic surface instantly.

The $69 case includes:

Injection molded high-impact polycarbonate frame

Thermoplastic elastomer anti-slip grip inserts

Remote Mounting System (RMS), mount most anywhere

RokGard Screen Protector

Having a father who was heavily involved in early laser and fiber-optical research, Dan grew up surrounded by technology and gadgets. Dan’s father brought home one of the very first video games when he was young and Dan remembers seeing a “pre-release” touchtone phone. (When he asked his father what the “#” and “*” buttons were his dad said, “Some day, far in the future, we’ll have some use for them.”) Technology seemed to be in Dan’s blood but at some point he took a different path and ended up in the clergy. His passion for technology and gadgets never left him.
