I love Sena’s leather cases and have since my first Dell Axim PDA. Their quality is first-rate, the leathers they use are gorgeous and, time and again, they find just the right balance between style and function.
Well the company has rolled out their offerings for the iPad 2 and they are impressive. I like them all but am especially drawn to the new Florence for iPad 2. This sleek case/stand will have an MSRP of $79.99 but is available for pre-order right now for just $69.99.
We have lots more pictures of the Florence but let’s take a quick look at the rest of the new offerings first.
Sena has an updated version of their Folio (one of my favorites for the iPad 1).
Slim simple elegant sophistication, the premium leather Folio dresses up your iPad 2 for any stylish setting.
Leather book style side-folding design
Integrated 3 position stand function

The case will have an MSRP of $99.99 but is just $89.99 as a pre-order.
The UltraSlim for iPad 2 accommodates the iPad 2 with the Smart Cover in place. (There is a version that will fit the iPad only as well.)

A number of the company’s cases for the original iPad work perfectly with the iPad 2 as well.
For example, Sena’s Executive Sleeve will also fit the iPad 2 and is $99.99.
The Collega will also fit the iPad 2 and is $150.00.
All of Sena’s cases for the iPad 2 look great to me but it is the Florence that really caught my eye.
