OtterBox to Reveal New Case Line, Exclusively at CES 2010

For the first time in history, OtterBox will reveal a new case series for handheld devices exclusively at CES 2010. Currently offering three distinct case lines to provide peerless protection for tech products, OtterBox will launch a fourth line at this year’s CES. Experience the new line and the future of customized technology cases.

“We’ve taken the knowledge we have gathered from other case lines and put it towards creating this new series,” Curt Richardson said, OtterBox founder and CEO. “This design will be like nothing our customers have seen from us but will still incorporate the same quality and innovation as other OtterBox case lines.”

Need something strong? The three layers of the OtterBox Defender Series™ offer a rugged safeguard for smartphones. First, a two-piece polycarbonate shell snaps together around the device, then a silicone skin wraps over that and finally a built-in screen cover protects from scratches and scrapes. Defender Series cases come with a holster style ratcheting belt clip. This case is built for adventure!*

Want style? Incorporating elements from the Defender Series and essentially reversing the design, the OtterBox Commuter Series™ is a hybrid case line created thoughtfully for on-the-go lifestyles. A slim silicone skin holds the device and a polycarbonate shell snaps over the mid layer to add support and protection. A self-adhering screen cover, microfiber cleaning cloth and installation card are all included. This case slides easily in and out of bags, pockets or purses for users on the move.**

Like to keep it simple? The OtterBox Impact Series™ was designed for those needing a less extreme safeguard than the Commuter or Defender Series. A silicone skin with impact absorbing features such as inner coring, this durable case provides everyday protection against bump, drop and shock.A self adhering screen cover is included to prevent damaging scratches and scuffs and a microfiber cleaning cloth and installation card come standard as well. Impact Series cases are simple and smart for casual smartphone users.**

Looking for the latest addition? The never before seen series will be announced at the ShowStoppers press event January 7, 2010 and displayed at the main OtterBox booth in the upper level of South Hall 3, booth #31858 starting January 8, 2010.
