Feel the Excitement, OtterBox Cases Available for iPad

Aug. 10, 2010 - PRLog -- Fort Collins, COLO. -- OtterBox™ and Apple® fans alike have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of unbeatable protection for one of the most innovative products to date. With web, email, photos and video, the iPad™ can do almost anything and now it can go anywhere with Defender Series™ and Commuter Series™ cases from OtterBox.

Designed to accompany on-the-go lifestyles, the Defender Series case for the iPad combines a two-piece polycarbonate shell lined with soft felt, silicone outer skin and a self-adhering screen protector for rugged protection. An additional polycarbonate cover snaps over the face to protect the Multi-Touch display or can function as a built-in stand while browsing the web or watching a video. Silicone grip pads on the bottom of the case prevent the iPad from sliding when sitting on a flat surface. The case also accommodates the optional dock accessory.*

The OtterBox Commuter Series case is another option to keep the iPad pristine. Starting with a self-adhering screen protector, the device is then wrapped in durable silicone and fortified with a one piece custom molded polycarbonate shell that snaps perfectly over the outside. Layers not only safeguard the iPad from unsightly scratches and dings, but also make it easy to slide out of any backpack or briefcase. The case also features snap-off access to the optional iPad dock.**

“The new Defender Series and Commuter Series cases for the iPad are truly one of a kind,” said OtterBox founder and CEO, Curt Richardson. “This is OtterBox innovation at its finest; customers won’t be able to find more complete iPad protection.”

The wait is over and the excitement begins; trust OtterBox to make your iPad indestructible.
