Thanks for everyone's input. I went with the otterbox and really like it. Now to figure out a way to mount it with the case hopefully.

I sold an Ottherbox Defender here on ExPo -- just too big. I've been using a Hard Candy StreetSkin thermoplastic urethane case for half a year now, and it's perfect for me. Tough, not silicone (just don't like the feel of silicone cases), super to hold onto. The nubs that hold the cover on have been criticized by some, but they really do work pretty well.

I have the original iPad. I use the Zagg InvisibleShield product (front and back) and have also used an Otterbox for protection. For most day to day use the InvisibleSheild is fine for me since it sits in my back most of the time. For more rugged conditions like around camp, I do like the Otterbox however I limit my usage simply because it almost doubles the weight of the iPad due to the hard Plastic exoskeleton + soft urethane protection. It's also a pain to put on and take off.
FWIW, i also use a RAM mount when i'm using the ipad for navigation and have to remove the Otterbox because it won't fit into the mount otherwise.

I have got a great purchase! http://www.eva-product.com/Super-Lig...Pad-4-304.html At first, I was a bit leary because there were no reviews on it because this is a fairly new item on the market. I've got to say that so far i love it and so do my children( age 2 and 4) . It provides a great handle for them to carry around with or prop up with and is very sturdy and lightweight. I would definitely recommend you getting this cover.I t is also a nice iPad case for travel due to the handle.Besides, Charging port is covered and other ports are accessible although more difficult for little fingers to get to because they are deep enough.
