Apple’s iPad Case Design Gets Approval From The Patent Office

on 08/03/2010, filed in Home > Apple

While there are many third-party iPad protective cases out there, let’s not forget that Apple has a pretty functional iPad case of its own, and China’s patent office has accepted Apple’s patent design for the iPad case. The design calls for a microfiber interior and reinforced panels to provide structure. As we already know, the case is able to fold down to double up as a stand to make it easier for users to type out lengthy emails on it. The iPad case was introduced on the same day that the iPad was launched.

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.

iPad: the iPad is Apple's tablet computer. While not "invented" by Apple (the newton was arguably a PDA), the iPad has re-ignited the tablet format as it appeared at the right time, with the right hardware and apps. the first iPad was launched on April 2010. It was followed by the iPad 2 in March 2011 and a new iPad (gen 3) in 2012.
