M-Edge Launches Waterproof Guardian Case For Amazon Kindle
The world's first fully waterproof, floating case set to revolutionize the e-reading experience
ODENTON, Md. (June 9, 2010)--M-Edge Accessories, the leading provider of e- reader accessories, today released their latest groundbreaking accessory for Amazon Kindle--the Guardian Case. The Guardian is the world's first fully waterproof, floating case for Kindle.
Made of molded plastic, the Guardian safeguards the device in all water environments up to 1 meter deep, from the bathtub to the pool to the ocean. The Guardian Case allows for full functionality of Kindle's navigation buttons and keyboard through flexible sealed button cutouts. Users can even read hands-free in the water, because the Guardian floats on the surface.
"The Guardian is certain to revolutionize the way Kindle owners read. Now, not only can people read by the water without fear, they can read in the water, on the water, and under the water--to one meter anyhow," says Patrick Mish, CEO of M-Edge Accessories. "They can read in places they wouldn't dare bring a book, but always wanted to. The Guardian Case provides the solution and is an excellent example of how M-Edge is committed to delivering problem-solving and innovative accessories that meet the needs of readers, no matter where they choose to read."
The Guardian keeps a secure, watertight seal around Kindle by utilizing a dual- hinge, integrated gasket and four-latch closure system. Three internal buoyancy chambers provide distributed flotation to keep Kindle afloat for in-water reading. An anti-reflective film protects the Guardian's screen area while allowing for uninhibited reading in sunny environments. Made of transparent polycarbonate, the Guardian's hard shell exterior provides impact protection while the custom molded interior and soft mounting pads provide gentle support for the device.
The Guardian comes in three colors--black, red, and cobalt blue--and is available for $79.99 on medgestore.com and Amazon.com. The case has been featured in such publications as Maxim, People StyleWatch, Forbes, and Wired.
