Sierra Madre, California - (June 09, 2010) – Booq, a leading brand of premium laptop carrying cases for creative professionals, releases the newest addition to their Taipan line, Taipan spacesuit XS. With Apple’s recent announcement of over 2 million iPads sold in the last two months, demand for stylish and versatile protection for the popular device is running high. Booq’s Taipan spacesuit XS provides an exciting alternative to the bland and boring protective cases already on the market. Available at booqbags.com and retailers throughout the country, booq combines sophisticated design and functionality to deliver high-quality bags and skins for the next generation of ambitious professionals. 

Booq’s 3mm neoprene iPad skin provides a protective cushion to battle all the drops and mishaps of life on-the-go. “Most protective accessories for the iPad have followed the same design as an iPhone case or other mobile device,” says Jake Orak, head of product design & development for booq bags. “An open face case design is great when you’re using the iPad, but leaves the screen exposed when carrying the iPad in another bag, backpack, or purse.”

Taipan spacesuit XS features a non-scratch interior lining that surrounds the entire iPad and keeps it scratch free. Booq’s new skin also comes equipped with a cushioned jersey trim that provides a barrier between the screen and zippers, eliminating the opportunity for accidental scratches when removing the iPad.

Without compromising protection or function, the spacesuit-inspired pattern and bold new colors keep Taipan spacesuit XS cool and fashionable for men and women. “Along with booq’s sleek black & red color design, we’ve unveiled a sexy new berry color and a silver & turquoise combination that appeals to men and women,” says Orak. “People are looking to protect their investment in a way that maintains it’s slim and creative design. Taipan spacesuit XS matches the style and high quality of the device itself, while protecting the iPad wherever you take it.”
