Published by CoverCase on Tagged CoverCase news

The super slim impact-resistant case offers form-fitted durable protection against scratches and dust, while allowing full access to all controls and best of all a touch-thru screen. ivyskin products will soon be available for purchase on covercase.com

Touch-Thru Design
The touch screen panel is coated with a special patent pending material that conducts a continuous electrical current across the the shield.The human body is also an electrical device which has stored electrons and therefore also exhibits capacitance. It is an extremely durable screen that is suited for use in industrial control systems and other harsh environments. This rugged screen type is not affected by most surface contaminants, scratches, or vibration. Responds to finger or gloved hand. However, not all touch screens are the same, and only ivyskin xylo T2 are build with German materials.

True Polycarbonate Design
Sleek and crystal clear qualities of a traditional polycarbonate case with the addition of an ultra-thin hard screen cover that stays on the case to protect the iPhone’s screen from every angle. The Xylo T2 delivers on its promise to protect your iPhone. Made with polycarbonate crystal material, it is second to none on the market today. We are proud to be an all American company with intensive requirements to make every product that we manufacturer superior, to the standard of what a US designed product should be.

Xylo Touch-Thru© (T2) case by ivyskin is the first of its kind to provide a hard screen shell over the iPhone. This German designed material is second to none on the market today! Enables you to navigate the iPhone’s screen with the hard scratch resistant shield. ivyskin has designed and manufactured the all new T2 case© from scratch by using the latest technology available in crystal case manufacturing. Another breakthrough from a company that always thinks outside the box. Surface Xylo Wave (SXW)© technology passes ultrasonic waves that pass over the touch screen panel and transfer them to the iPhone’s screen without any interferences. When the panel is touched, a portion of the wave is absorbed. This change in the ultrasonic waves registers the position of the touch event and sends this information to the iPhone’s screen for processing.

CoverCase will distribute ifrogz new line of iPod and iPhone Silicon skin cases

Published by CoverCase on Tagged CoverCase news

CoverCase.Com will distribute iFrogz iPod 3rd Gen. Nano cases, which are now on sale for 25% off. iFrogz has three different 3G nano cases; smooth traditional Wrapz which come in 14 different color choices, rugged, tough Treadz available in black only, and the new tinted Crystal in 6 color choices.

All of the iFrogz 3G Nano cases includes iFrogz signature Wrapz™ and Screenz™. Wrapz, the main case component of the iFrogz system, covers the player from top to three quarters of the way to the bottom and exposes only the screen (which is covered by a clear plastic protector), scroll wheel, headphone jack and other ports.

Screenz, or click wheel art, are the most customizable element of the iFrogz system They are protective sheets of plastic that lay over the player’s click wheel allowing it to reflect the personality of its owner. There are 97 iFrogz Screenz specifically designed for the 3rd Gen. Nano.

Whereas many silicone iPod cases are flimsy, gummy and collect lint, iFrogz uses only 100 percent high-grade, polished silicone that has been specially treated to resist dust and dirt. This makes the case smooth and silky to the touch, in addition to being extremely durable.

The iPod Touch is one of the slickest devices to ever hit the market and the iFrogz new iPod Touch cases will keep your Touch safe and secure, with style.

The Wrapz are available in Thick Black, Royal Blue, Red Ruby and Gun Metal Gray. The Treadz is available in Black only. Both cases are made with iFrogz signature 100% polished extra strong silicone that is specially treated to repel dust and lint.

There’s just something about a little color and ifrogz, makers of the most customizable iPod cases in the world, have now brought their famous color to the iPhone.

iPod Speaker Doc by Vers Audio Hand Made Super System

Published by CoverCase on Tagged CoverCase news

CoverCase.Com Introduces the only hand made iPod Speaker super system in the market.

If you are one of those people who appreciate fine quality and innovative ideas, here is the Only Hand-Crafted Wood iPod Sound System Vers™ 2x made of real wood for your iPod and iPhone looks as beautiful as it sounds. It is more energy efficient and environmentally sound than nearly all in its category, using power-efficient components, plantation-grown wood, and 100%-recycled packaging.
The heart of Vers is an energy-efficient class-D amplifier, coupled with two 3″ custom-designed speakers that deliver 40-watts peak of full-range sound, with particular attention paid to drawing out the bass and treble often lost in digital music formatting. The result: a fuller, more complete representation of your music.

In a sea of plastic alternatives, Vers stands out, offering superior sound quality and fine furniture-like beauty, making it a natural fit in either a home and office setting. Free U.S. shipping

Detailed Description

If you had to choose one word to describe Vers, it would have to be “Natural.” Natural — as in the quality of sound and the use of real wood, crafted and finished by hand. Natural as in the selection of sustainable materials and efficient components.

Natural, however, doesn’t come easy. The hand craftsmanship required to create a Vers system takes time — more than a week to build one cabinet. There are plenty of ways to build a sound system faster, but few better. There’s a reason why many musical instruments are still made of wood, nothing sounds as warm, as rich — or as natural.

Wood vs. Plastic The wood used in Vers displaces 80% of what otherwise would have been plastic. When chosen from carefully managed plantation sources, wood can be a very sustainable, renewable material.

The WHOLE Tree The core material of a Vers enclosure is a wood composite made from a combination of eucalyptus and pine — two species that grow fast and mature quickly. The WHOLE tree is used: trunk, roots, branches and twigs and the trees themselves are plantation-grown, meaning once they’re harvested, they’re replanted.

Screws vs. Glue All Vers systems are assembled with screws, not adhesives or impossible-to-disassemble snap features. This allows a unit to be easily broken down into component materials when the time comes.

Marked for Life The name of the material used for each plastic part is molded into the back of the part to aid in future recycling. It doesn’t cost anything, but you have to ask for it.

Recycled Packaging Simply having recyclable packaging isn’t enough — you need to start with recycled materials where possible. All paper material used in our packaging is both 100% recycled AND 100% recyclable.

Pulp Fact Paper pulp trays made from 100% recycled paper material provide the same protection as foam packaging — and they reduce package volume by around 10%. Since they take up less space, smaller packages require less energy to transport.

Class D Amplifier A class D amplifier is 80% more efficient as other amplifier types, meaning it uses about half the power to produce the same sound volume. Class D amplifiers generate less heat, too.

RoHS Compliant The Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive was authored in an effort to remove lead, mercury, cadmium and several other hazardous materials from the waste stream. Though not required by law, all Vers products are RoHS compliant.

Features Overview Plays and charges:
iPhone, iPod nano, iPod mini, iPod, iPod classic, iPod touch, and iPod video Hand-crafted cherry veneer cabinet — no two alike Includes 8 iPod adapters and universal MP3 dock Two 3″ custom-engineered 15-watt speakers Removable speaker grill Dual port design for deeper bass Advanced 14 function remote control with 25′ range 3.5mm audio cable for use with other MP3 players 3.5mm audio input and audio output Full-range speakers add clarity and realism to your music 14-function remote: Power, iPod menu, menu up/down, menu select, play/pause, mute, volume +/-, previous/next playlist, shuffle, forward track select, backward track select [battery included] One-year limited manufacturer’s warranty Technical Specifications Class D amplifier Speaker impedance: 4 Ohm Peak wattage per channel - 20 watts Frequency response: 60 Hz-20kHz Signal to noise ratio: 90 dB Total harmonic distortion: 5.7% 24V 1.5A AC/DC switching adapter Battery for remote: CR-2032 [included] Measures: 11.5″ x 6″ x 5.6″ Weighs: 6.5 lbs.

Aliph Jawbone Bluetooth Headset

Published by CoverCase on Tagged CoverCase news

These days, it seems that wireless Bluetooth headsets are a dime a dozen, but Aliph’s Jawbone stands apart from the pack not only due to its unique looks but also thanks to some seriously amazing noise canceling technology. Originally developed for DARPA (The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) to create a communication headset that would pick up voice in hostile environments, the Jawbone offers some of the best clarity from a Bluetooth headset we’ve experienced. This version comes in black, but it’s also available in red and gray at discounted price of $99.99 only at covercase.com

Sophisticated modern industrial style meets the next step in audio technology with the Jawbone Bluetooth headset.

It can be worn on either ear, and you can customize your fit by choosing from one of the included earloops and earbuds.

The first thing you notice about this headset is its rather chunky size and cheese grater-like texturing on the exterior. Designed by Yves Behar, an award-winning industrial designer who also contributed to the design of the OLPC (One Laptop Per Child, aka the $100 Laptop), the Jawbone certainly has that iconic modern look that will be copied for years to come. It’s also a bit large on the face (due to the embedded technology and speech sensor), which reminded us of Lando Calrissian’s assistant, Lobot. But then there’s no easy way to disguise a Bluetooth headset, and it’s probably an advantage as passersby won’t think you’re just muttering crazily to yourself.

The Jawbone can be worn on either ear, and it comes with four earloops of varying sizes to fit your lobe. Made of solid metal with a rubber cover, they’re fairly comfortable around the ear. The trick, however, is getting it on over the ear, and this is the Jawbone’s biggest disappointment. Because it’s so stiff, you literally have to use both hands to try to slip it on over your ear. And since we don’t wear our headset constantly, we missed a few calls while performing this dance. Also, the metal frame does bend (as we found after carrying it in our pocket), which can be viewed as an annoyance or as a feature–enabling you to form-fit the frame to your ear. It also comes with five ear pads of varying shapes and sizes, and we tried one of the teardrop shaped pads to secure the Jawbone inside our ear sans metal frame–it was comfortable and worked for awhile, but isn’t a solution if you’re moving around a lot.

As with Steve Jobs, Behar is not a fan of protruding buttons. Thus, the Jawbone’s two controls are hidden within the headset, requiring you to press either the front or back of the unit to answer calls, adjust volume, or turn on/off the noise cancellation function. While we’ve read some reviews that complained about these hidden controls, we had no problem in accessing them and appreciated their tactile response. The Jawbone also comes with a custom-fit recharging cable that can either plug into a PC’s USB port or into the included wall jack. We enjoyed the flexibility of the USB charging, but wished the cable could have been a more standard USB mini-jack (for those times when you forget to bring the cable along).

But the true test of the Jawbone is how its “noise shield” performed. First, a little about this technology. The Jawbone has a small piece of rubbery plastic that protrudes from the bulbous microphone and sits flush against your face, and this sensor tells the Jawbone whether or not you’re speaking and can remove background noise from your ongoing speech signal. It can also dynamically adjust the volume of the incoming audio from your call.

We tried the Jawbone in a number of different situations, and for the most part it worked flawlessly. Sitting at our desk with the stereo volume cranked up while playing The Chemical Brothers, our call partner was none the wiser. She didn’t hear any of the music coming through, and our voice came through strong on her end. While standing on a street corner, the undulations of traffic noise never made it through to our caller, while we noticed an uptick in volume with an increase in traffic noise.

However, the Jawbone wasn’t perfect, as it doesn’t do a great job in windy situations. Still, for the good majority of situations you’ll find yourself in–from busy airports to talk-heavy coffeehouses to traffic-laden city streets–the Jawbone should perform very well, masking the surroundings to improve fidelity for you call partner as well adapting your ear volume to the surrounding environment. We just wish the ear frame was a bit more flexible.

Pros:
Amazing background noise masking capabilities–even when faced with loud, thumping music
Outstanding adaptive volume as the environment around you changes
Options for customizing the fit
Cons:
Metal earloop frames are hard to quickly put on
Non-standard USB connection is a bummer if you forget the cable at home

Product Description
Designed by the renowned Yves Behar, Jawbone takes mobile style to new heights. Jawbone’s perforated shield curves to match the outline of your face while the inside surface is made from medical grade plastic to provide a soft and smooth feel on the skin. Jawbone can be worn on either ear, and you can customize your fit by choosing an earloop and earbud from the several shapes and sizes provided. Jawbone’s ergonomic design enhances the acoustic performance and keeps the device lightweight, stable and comfortable. How it works- Jawbone measures the ambient noise around you and automatically enhances the incoming audio and adjusts the volume to make every incoming call sound crystal clear. Using adaptive sound technology, the Jawbone uses two microphones and a voice activity sensor. When placed against the cheek, the sensor detects voice vibrations rather than picking up the sound from your mouth. Excellent sound quality, adaptive noise cancellation, catchy design and comfortable fit.
