Might be a silly question, but what is the purpose of the elastic?

Like mr_munz said. It holds the tablet and the front and back of the cover together while you hold it up with one hand without your fingers getting tired.

p.s. I assumed you meant the long thin black elastic piece on the inside of the case. I guess you could have also meant the wide grey elastic piece on the inside, which I slide my hand into to hold on to it. Then there is the other small piece of black elastic in a loop on the outside of the case. I see others have mentioned it to be to "pry" open the case. I simply hold the case and lightly push up under the edge of the curved piece of the hard part of the case. I believe the loop is for a stylus if you choose to buy one.

I use it to hold the case when folded back on itself. On advice from the friend who told me about this case, I open it all the way until it is under itself. Then I grab the elastic and pull it around front on the edge of the screen. Then to get it out of my sight I grab the center of the elastic and pull it back to the hard curved edge that is behind the screen. It kinda holds it out of the way and keeps the tablet from flipping around freely while I am holding it in my hand with my fingers through the BIG elastic piece.

There are 2 elastic bands. The large elastic band you can slide your hand through to help hold the tablet. The smaller 1 works great to hold the case together when you fold it open onto itself. You can put the band on the corners of the tablet so it is not in the way and hold the case together. This is a great case.

The elastic is a pull tie to help in opening the case. The other half of the case has a snap that closes the case. You hold the one side by the elastic and pry the other side open. It works well. Hope this helps.

I haven't used it but I would assume it would be used to hold it in your hand while reading.

The elastic holds the flap in place when u fold it so if you want to read like a book you can put your hand in the strap and then the elastic will hold the Flap in place

There is a band of elastic, but it's only at the outer end of the fabric. The elastic material does not cover the full sides, as I've seen with other mattress pads. The mattress pad fits well around my mattress (my mattress is not thick, so the elastic part is underneath), but it is more loose/baggy on the sides than with my previous (non organic, cheap) mattress pad. Nothing that bothers me, though.

The iPad clicks in to keep it in place, and the elastic band does keep it shut when wrapped around the iPad. I also use it to hold the iPad in place when upright..

It is an elastic band. I do not really know if it works because I only bought it as a stage prop.

No it's not elastic. It has two arms and there is a 'lip' around the back to help with keeping it in the back when canopy is pulled forward.

the little elastic tab you see in the upper right corner forms a hole that could be used for a holder

Its not elastic. Its like that material that backpack straps are made off-if that helps. I am not sure what that is called.

They use elastic to attach them. You can take the elastic off but I don't think you could put something else on it.

Leslie, no you don't separate wrap elastic. However, if you need it for comfort - I would go for it!

It is a tight stretch elastic on each end that holds this cover in place. On my unit, it works very well. There are a couple of straps to use with a slide buckle for the under portion center--but I have not needed them and I live in Wyoming.

I can't get to the item at the moment, I can tell you that it's EXTREMELY elastic. Mine looked like it was too small for my shotgun, but I was able to get it in place without too much trouble, and it stays very securely.

I have few of them and two elastic broke on me. So I can't even use them. I didn't try that yet. And I don't think I will. I think it would be a pain in the butt.

It is elastic, but it holds pretty well. When the case they will tend to slide a bit, but I've learned to carry it on its side so it's not an issue. I have 2 of these cases and love'em!

It is elastic so probably could stretch.. I take mine out of its case. Easier and lighter!

Patrick, there is elastic under these two tabs, so if you want to push something through from one tab to the other there is give underneath it like an umbrella etc.. hope this is helpful

it's to keep the mattress in place, to keep it from sliding off when you raise and lower it.
