FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SPECK MIXES NEW FLAVOR COMBINATIONS
FOR CANDYSHELL CASES FOR iPhone 3G AND 3GS

PALO ALTO, CA—July 30, 2009—Speck’s designers are at it again. Not content with “just another case” for “just another iPhone,” the team has crafted a whole new spin on the company’s popular CandyShell line – five new delicious two-tone color combos designed to take the award-winning outer hard shell/soft interior case to a new level. All CandyShell cases, past and present, are compatible with the new iPhone 3GS and the iPhone 3G.

“The 'tone-on-tone' style, often referred to as 'Ombre', continues to dominate runways in the fashion industry,” said Bryan Hynecek, Lead Designer at Speck. “These simple yet sophisticated CandyShell designs reflect the fact that iPhone devotees want to update their look every few months to match wider fashion trends."

The new color combos include: BubbleMaker Pink, BatWing Black, AquaBerry Blue, WaxStick White, and JamJar Purple. Introduced earlier this year, the CandyShell was the first iPhone case to offer the unique combination of hard shell protection with a soft interior. Never before has the flexibility and shock-absorption of a soft rubberized case been combined with the durability and scratch protection of a sleek outer hard shell in a seamless, single-piece, easy-to-use design. CandyShell's soft, colorful, rubberized interior helps keep the iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G insulated from all of life's bumps and drops, while the shiny and sleek outer hard shell protects it from scratches and lets you slip it in and out of pockets with ease. CandyShell has generous openings and access to all ports, controls and sensors, including soft-touch rubberized touch-thru power and volume control covers. The CandyShell can be docked through its bottom opening and the case also includes a cleaning cloth and removable screen protector film for extra scratch protection.

The new CandyShell cases for iPhone 3G and 3GS are available now at Apple Stores and online at www.apple.com and www.speckproducts.com for $34.95MSRP. CandyShell in Purple/Pink is available exclusively at AT&T retail and online at www.att.com/wirelessaccessories. Additionally, all previous Speck cases for the iPhone 3G fit the iPhone 3GS, including Fitted, ToughSkin, Seethru and QuickDraw.
