Slightly modifying one of its original iPad designs, Hard Candy Cases has released StreetSkin for iPad 2 ($40). This polyurethane shell features a hinged screen cover, and both portions are molded into a tread pattern in black, white, or translucent pink. Unlike the previous iteration, the screen cover is not removable. With the flap closed, the entire iPad 2 is protected with the exception of the headphone port, mic, Sleep/Wake button, rear camera, side switch, volume rocker, speaker, and Dock Connector; these components are accessible through openings that are cut pretty accurately, but just a hint off center. Nubs on the right corners of the shell and corresponding latches on the cover are used for holding the front flap in place both while it is protecting the screen and when it is folded under. One note of caution: the recessed areas of the rubber lid are still touch-sensitive, so we were able to unlock the iPad 2 through the cover when it was in landscape orientation.
