Belkin announces iPad sleeves

on 01/28/2010, filed in Home > Apple

Trust Belkin to be at the forefront of an accessory range announcement with each new Apple product announcement. The iPad isn’t going to be available for another 59 days, but the folks at Belkin have already announced their Vue Sleeve, Max Sleeve and Grip Sleeve to keep your iPad looking pristine, thanks to reinforced panels which protect the device’s touchscreen surface. Each of the mentioned cases will come in a slim profile that has enough storage space to hold a number of accessories, where prices range from $29.99 to $39.99. They do look rather dull and might just be able to squeeze in a netbook, with definitely more than enough room to hold a first generation 7″ Eee PC. [Press Release]

Apple Inc: Apple Inc was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne as a computer company wich is often credited to have initiated personal computing. After a meteoric rise in the 80s, Apple had lost the personal computing battle against Microsoft and others in the 90s. But in the late 90s and early 2000s, the company came back to profitability by focusing on less products and started using industry-standard components. Apple's largest business is now in the smartphone space, with the iPhone representing more than half of the revenues and an even larger part of the profits.
