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 Covers, Cases and Skins   no comments

The iPad has been out only a few days, and although quite a few companies have announced iPad covers and cases that will be available soon, so far the selection is pretty thin.  There are a few iPad casesand sleeves available now though.

iPad Skins

DecalGirl has about 50 different skins for the iPad already.  These skins also come withDecal-Girl-iPad-Skin-Wolf-Reflection a matching wallpaper which continues the design over the screen.  The iPad’s aluminum back looks nice but does not always feel really comfortable.  While these high quality vinyl skins are not cushioned or padded, they definitely feel more comfortable and less slippery than the bare metal iPad back cover in my opinion.   I have a DecalGirl skin on my netbook (and will be ordering one for my iPad) and I can say that they wear really well and after a bit of aging look like the natural case color of the device and not  like a sticker or appliqué.

Update: DecalGirl has provided a discount code for a free upgrade to a matte/satin skin for any device: GOMATTE.  Not sure when this expires.

iPad Cases

Targus for iPad

Targus has a couple of iPad cases which at the moment are still pre-order but should be available soon.

The Targus Crave Slipcase is made of stain and water resistant fabric with double foam padding for protection.  The Crave is priced at $34.99.

The Targus Hughes Leather Portfolio Slipcase is leather with a soft twill lining.  This case has a magnetic lining and is priced at $59.99.

Tuff-Luv iPad Case

The Napa Leather casefor the iPad is also presently a pre-order and will beTuff-Luv-Napa-Leather-Case-for-iPad available on April 24.  This one is made of leather and should be available in  several colors.  A nice feature of this case is the integrated stand which will come in handy for the iPad.  Price is $59.99.

 

TrendyDigital

TrendyDigital has its waterproof WaterGuard Case in a size for the iPad available now for $19.99.  Your iPad can be operated through the clear plastic cover.  A shoulder strap is included.TrendyDigital-WaterGuard-Waterproof-iPad-Case

I’m sure that in the coming weeks we will see a bunch of new iPad covers so stay tuned.

The iPad also suffers from a lot of glare when used in bright light which makes an anti-glare screen protector a good investment as well.  Most of the familiar companies making this type of product are still at the pre-order stage, but there is one available now by XGearlive.  This should also help reduce fingerprints.

Kindle DX Skins   1 comment

Posted at 10:58 pm in kindle dx,Kindle Skins & Covers,Random

DecalGirl.com has just added a selection of Kindle DX skins to their popular line of device skins. Currently they have just over 70 different designs to fit the DX, and almost 250 skins for the Kindle 2. There is also a line of Kindle 1 skins. This is a great way to individualize your Kindle as well as providing protection from scratches. Each skin is made of cleanable vinyl with a removable adhesive that covers the front and back of your ebook reader. Cast vinyl is used, so it doesn’t fade and should last for years. DecalGirl also makes skins for many other devices, such as cell phones, Xboxes, PSP, etc.
A few photos are shown below, but these are just representative of the many patterns available.
