Kindle 3 Skins   no comments

DecalGirl appears to be the first to have Kindle 3 skinsready.  Initially DecalGirl has around 250 different Kindle 3 skin designs for you to choose from.  The new skins are priced at $14.99 or $17.99 if you upgrade to the matte finish.  I recommend the matte – I have used both finishes and the matte is the nicest in my opinion; the matte finish seems to look even better after it ages for a while.  You can use the discount coupon code DECAL10 to get a 10 percent discount on your order.

eReader Skin Coupon Codes   no comments

If you were thinking of getting a skin for your ereader or other device, we have the skinny on discount coupons from two different skin companies.

First of all DecalGirlhas a new coupon code which will entitle you to a 10 percent discount when used in the appropriate space on the checkout page.  DecalGirl’s discount code is DECAL10.

Skinit is another provider of skins for all kinds of devices including the Kindle, nook and Sony PRS505 and PRS600 ereaders as well as the iPad.  Skins are also on the way for the iPad Dock and keyboard. 

Skinit has a lot of skins themed on television shows, films and music groups.  There are also sports team and Disney themes as well as interesting creations by various artists.  A new set of skins based on The Twilight Saga: Eclipse movie was just announced by Skinit. 

The discount coupon code 30%OFF will get you a 30 percent discount at Skinit, but this code expires on June 20, 2010.

iPad Accessories – DecalGirl Matte Skin Review   no comments

The aluminum back of the iPad is quite attractive, but I have applied a DecalGirl skin to mine anyway for several reasons:

  • DecalGirl’s skins look cool.  Also provides some scratch protection. iPad-DecalGirl-Skin
  • The aluminum back of the iPad is a bit slippery – I can imagine dropping it at some point – I would like a surface with a bit more traction without bulking up the thin profile of the iPad.
  • The aluminum back is cold and somewhat uncomfortable in cold weather.
  • I wanted to try the new matte finish that DecalGirl offers now.

Installing the skin on the back of the iPad is pretty straightforward as there are no buttons or other features to work around.  I opted not to install the other part of the skin on the front of my iPad as I like the black bezel.  If you are installing a skin on an ereader or other device with buttons and other controls DecalGirl recommends popping the skin in the freezer for a few minutes first.  This makes the adhesive a little less tacky and makes it easier to shift the skin around if you need to adjust the fit.

The matte finished skins definitely do look better than the glossy finish in my opinion.   My iPad also feels better in my hands after skinning it – there is a kind of micro texture to the matte finish.  Somewhat counter intuitively the glossy skins seem a bit less slippery, especially if your fingers are a little sweaty. 

The matte finish is a $5.00 upgrade, but you can use promo code GOMATTE during the checkout process to upgrade to the matte finish for free.  DecalGirl currently has about 150 different iPad Skinsas well as skins for the nook, Kindle, Bookeen Cybook and Sony ereaders.
