SPECK SHIPS ‘SWITCHWAY’ FOLIO CASE FOR IPHONE 3G

IPHONE OWNERS CAN CHANGE THEIR MIND WITHOUT CHANGING THEIR CASE

PALO ALTO, CA – October 30, 2008 – Speck today unveiled their latest and most innovative folio case design, SwitchWay.  The SwitchWay was created for those that enjoy using their iPhone 3G in many ways and need more than what most traditional, single purpose folio cases offer. For images and information on SwitchWay, please visit: http://www.speckproducts.com/content/iphone-3g-switchway.

“SwitchWay is designed to break off from the traditional and change people’s perception of what once was the standard folio.” said Bryan Hynecek, Lead Designer at Speck. “We challenged conventional wisdom by seamlessly creating two cases in one. The result was a design that’s extremely flexible and distinct.”

SwitchWay can be worn in both a horizontal portfolio position and as a vertical wallet-style case. Its two built-in belt clips allow for a quick switch to or from a horizontal or vertical position without needing to adjust or change anything on the case. The clips also enable SwitchWay to easily attach to a bag strap and the folio styling is ideal for tucking away in a bag or purse. The exterior is protective and scratch resistant, and a soft, padded inner lining works to help clean the screen and protect from scuffs and scrapes. The two closure flaps help keep the iPhone secure in the case without dealing with awkward snaps, tabs or straps. Fingertip-sized openings enable quick and easy removal from the case, which also includes openings for dock and headphone cable connections. The SwitchWay case is available in an outer black exterior shell with soft black interior lining and yellow outer stitching details at $34.95 USD.

PALO ALTO, CA – October 23, 2008 – Speck created the category of hard shell cases for MacBooks and iMacs with the award-winning SeeThru. Today, on the heels of Apple’s announcement, consumers can count on the trademark form-fitted hard case, with a new twist, designed exclusively for the new MacBook, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air notebooks.

“Speck continues to innovate time and time again. Today is no different. We’re excited to significantly expand our family of industry-first cases to the newly redesigned MacBook and MacBook Pro,” said Irene Baran, CEO of Speck.  “We’re never satisfied with the status quo. Our designers continue to innovate, and with this fresh line of MacBooks it challenges us to bring forth new ideas on customization and protection.”

Fitted is the first of its kind and is a fabric covered, form-fit hard shell case available in several stylish variations. The Fitted, which launched for iPhone 3G last week, feels soft to the touch, and is authentically fashionable while offering custom-fit contours and openings to allow complete access to all controls and ports. Fitted is the perfect way to showcase individual style and will initially be released in editions ranging from $69.95 to $99.95 MSRP. New styles and patterns will also be announced seasonally.

Fans of the industry’s first hard shell case can also get the newly updated SeeThru for the new MacBooks. SeeThru is constructed of durable, polycarbonate plastic and comes in a wide Speck-trum of popular and personal colors and clear (color options vary depending upon model).  With the easy snap-on/off design, users can shield their notebook from scratches and bumps while enjoying complete access to all features including keyboard, drives and ports. The shells also come complete with rubber feet to help prevent movement on slippery surfaces. The durable SeeThru is the perfect add-on whether transporting your notebook alone, in a sleeve, briefcase, backpack or other bag and is also priced at $49.95 MSRP.

Speck SeeThru and Fitted editions for the new MacBooks will be available starting in early December in a variety of color and style options, and will range in price from $49.95 to $99.95 respectively.

Previous-edition MacBook Pro 17-inch and 15-inch notebook SeeThru hard shells, as well as current MacBook 13-inch and MacBook Air SeeThru hard shell cases are currently shipping to consumers and retail partners with an MSRP of $49.95.
