PALO ALTO, CA – April XX, 2009 – Two colors that personify spring, Pink and Yellow, aren’t just for Easter eggs any more.

“We’ve had a tremendous response to our SeeThru Satin hard shells since their introduction last year,” said Irene Baran, CEO of Speck. “The new colors are delightfully cheerful and stand out in a crowd with an explosion of color. They’re sure to brighten up anyone’s living room, bedroom, or office and just in time for spring and summer.”

Designed exclusively for the new 13” MacBook and 15” MacBook Pro, the SeeThru Satin hard shell snuggly protects your MacBook like a perfectly-sized, custom-fit glove. The smooth-to-the-touch rubberized exterior finish gives the MacBook a feeling of comfort and extra grip in your hands. With the durable, ultra-thin profile and easy-on/off two-piece hard shell design, users can shield their notebook from scratches and bumps while still enjoying access to all key features and functions including side battery status check button, trackpad, keyboard and all connection ports, without the need to remove the case. Integrated rubberized feet help stabilize and create extra grip on slippery surfaces and the shells are fully vented to optimize heat dissipation from the notebook. SeeThru Satin is the perfect add-on to personalize and protect your MacBook, whether you’re carrying it alone or in a sleeve, briefcase, backpack or other bag. The SeeThru Satin in Hot Pink and High Noon Yellow join the already available colors of Black, Purple and Red.

The SeeThru Satin is priced at $49.95 MSRP and available at Apple stores and online at http:// www.SpeckProducts.com and http://www.Apple.com.
