Title: Review of my new portenzo bookcase
Post by: Belisarius on December 21, 2012, 03:53:39 PM
I ordered myself a case from portenzo,  the book case line.

First... this is a beautiful case.  It feels just a hardbound book.  You can choose between a variety of colors for the outside and the inside.  The outer cover is buckram (like a library book) and the inside is linen.

The nexus is held in a carved wooden bed,  with some foam in the corners to hold it snug.  It fits perfectly with no movement. All ports and button are accesable.  The auto sleep and wake magnet works great.

Now, the options...

You can choose to have the case heels shut with magnets, an weekend band, or both.  Go with the elastic.  The magnets don't work,  and costs extra. I went with magnets alone,  and wish I had gotten elastic.

Get the intellistand.  It let's you prop the case open in a couple of positions,  with the magnets holding it in place. Worth the upcharge.

You can also have the case embossed in gold.

Beautiful case,  with the money.
