Leba - note case stores16 ipads

This storage case is one of the best I have seen. It can store 16 iPads in their protective cases, the charging cables can be kept very neat and are easy to re-connect. The case is made of a sturdy plastic and has wheels on one end and various handles to make the case portable. There is also a slot to store and use a wireless access point and a protective laptop slot.

The unit is purchased in 2 parts

1) The "Note Case".

2) The "Note-Sync" the unit that does the charging and syncing.

Connect the USB lead from the "Note-Sync" to a computer to backup / restore / or sync all the iPads with iTunes. You can use the iPhone Configuration Utility or the Apple Configurator app (only available on an Apple running Lion or above). This makes updating your iPads easy.

The note sync is also available for the Samsung Galaxy.
