     <title>With Reports That Gorilla Glass 2 is Coming, The Snugg Weighs in on Mobile Protection</title>

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those that have not heard of Gorilla Glass, the chances are you have already used, or may in fact own a product that uses it.<br /> <br />Gorilla glass is a toughened glass which was developed by Corning, the innovators in materials chemistry. The introduction of Gorilla glass was the result of some modification of an older product named ChemCor which was produced in 1962. The challenge was to reduce the weight of this existing toughened and treated glass, so that it could be reproduced as the thin, millimeters thick piece of glass most of us sport on our smart phones.<br /> <br />Gorilla Glass use is widespread among recent smartphones and is used in Apple&#39;s iPhone devices, although it was a while before they admitted to this. With that said, it is thought that Gorilla Glass is used in around 20% of all current Smart phones, as opposed to the thin plastic which can be found on earlier smartphones such as the BlackBerry.<br /> <br />Now, Corning are due to introduce an improved glass which they hope will feature in many smartphones and mobile devices to come, further protecting our gadgets from life&#39;s drops, falls and impacts in general.<br /> <br />Mr Richard Mercer, Managing Director of the tablet case retailer, The Snugg stated that:<br /> <br /><span style="font-style: italic">&#39;Gorilla glass and its successor, are not only advantageous, but are in many cases critical for those device manufacturers that use it. When consumers spend hundreds on a new smartphone or tablet, only to have it written off by a single drop, they are bound to complain about the product&#39;s build quality and will likely expect a refund. Any form of additional protection then, is not only good for a manufacturer&#39;s reputation and brand, but also for reducing the cost of replacing damaged devices, as fewer will be returned. For the more cautious however, there are always after sales cases, like our best-selling <a href="http://www.thesnugg.com" target="_blank"  >iPad 2 Case</a> which provides that extra peace of mind&#39;.</span><br /> <br />The importance of a toughened screen cannot be undervalued, besides water damage, cracked and damaged screens are one of the leading causes of smartphone breakage and returns. What gorilla glass does however, is it reduces the scratches sustained in a drop or fall, so that those that are sustained, are not &#39;life-threatening&#39; to the device.<br /> <br /><span style="font-style: italic">&#39;One of the earlier iPod Nano editions sported a new screen that was highly prone to scratching, particularly when kept in a consumer&#39;s pocket with their keys and loose change. Many of these screens also failed, seemingly without cause. The result was a flood of complaints and so Apple was forced to recall many of the devices and pay for the cost of replacement. So it just goes to show how important it is to invest a little bit more in high quality materials. We do exactly the same with our tablet and <a href="http://www.thesnugg.com" target="_blank"  >iPad 2 cases</a>. We invest in quality finishes that make the cases oil and grease resistant, keeping our user&#39;s devices safe from harm and long lasting cosmetic damage&#39;</span> adds Mr Mercer.<br /> <br />It is hoped that the introduction of the stronger, lighter and thinner Gorilla Glass 2 will allow for greater flexibility in design and manufacture, so that future phones can be slimmer and lighter without compromising on their resilience. For those that are serious about protecting their tablet device however, a high quality case and screen protectors are a must, and many actually improve the device&#39;s usability.<br /> <br /><span style="font-style: italic">&#39;Many of our tablet cases, such as our <a href="http://www.thesnugg.com" target="_blank"  >Kindle Fire case</a>, are designed to support the device, as well as protecting it from unintentional damage. They are designed to fold, to provide free-standing support for video viewing and presenting which is particularly useful for those that work or watch video on the go. So until manufacturers provide this extra protection and functionality out of the box, many people will continue to pick up a separate case, just in case&#39;</span> says Mr Mercer.<br /> <br /> <br /><strong>- ENDS -</strong><br /> <br /><strong>About TheSnugg:</strong><br />TheSnugg has been offering its customers the opportunity to safeguard their technological assets with stylish, quality cases since their formation in 2010.

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>LONGMONT, CO &#8211;  January 10, 2012 - ShowStoppers @CES 2012 - <a href="http://rebit.com/?utm_campaign=Pro&amp;amp;utm_source=pr" target="_blank"  >Rebit Inc</a>., developers of the award-winning, &#39;ridiculously simple&#39; <a href="http://rebit.com/products/?utm_campaign=Pro&amp;amp;utm_source=pr" target="_blank"  >backup software</a> for consumers, professionals and small businesses, today announced Rebit Pro, offering professional-grade data protection for PCs and market-leading features for laptops.  </p>

<p>Rebit Pro is the first <a href="http://rebit.com/backup-basics/hybrid-cloud-backup/?utm_campaign=Pro&amp;amp;utm_source=pr" target="_blank"  >hybrid cloud backup</a> solution to deliver <a href="http://rebit.com/backup-basics/continuous-data-protection/?utm_campaign=Pro&amp;amp;utm_source=pr" target="_blank"  >continuous and automatic</a> backup, <a href="http://rebit.com/backup-basics/data-protection-and-recovery/?utm_campaign=Pro&amp;amp;utm_source=pr" target="_blank"  >full system recovery capability</a>, and seamless cloud integration, leveraging a single backup engine and user interface.</p>

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Munich - The collaboration of BMW Group subsidiary DesignworksUSA and Thermaltake  has reached the next level. The design consultancy has developed a design concept for an innovative series of gaming accessories of which the first product, the Level 10 M Mouse, will be launched in spring 2012. </p>

<p>As a Think Tank of BMW Group the design consultancy DesignworksUSA works for many industries with only one aim: To transfer design know how between cultures, markets and industries in order to come up with the most innovative, forward thinking and consumer oriented design solutions. In 2009 Thermaltake, the leader and innovator of pro-gaming computer chassis, for the first time partnered with the wholly owned BMW subsidiary. The studio had been tasked with the design concept of the Level 10 high end gaming tower. The result was a chassis which triggered off a lot of praise from the IT and pro-gaming world and many awards for its sheer revolutionary approach to computer housing. Now the collaboration continues with the expansion of the Level 10 experience to a range of gaming peripherals for Thermaltake´s e-sports division.</p>

<p>For the upcoming range of Level 10 accessory products DesignworksUSA challenged Thermaltake with most progressive design concepts. They aim at extending the Level 10 experience of the chassis to products that gamers directly interact with. The first product to be launched out of the new series of gaming peripherals is the Level 10 M Mouse. It will give testimony to the delicate thinking of the designers when applying the Level 10 design language to additional products. For the designers this task meant to extend the Level 10 gaming experience to all the gamers&#39; senses. Facing the challenge of translating the design language of the expressive geometrical Level 10 chassis onto products which by nature require ergonomic design solutions the design team came up with an array of innovative solutions to provide pro-gamers with products that speak the Level 10 design language but still provide them with the most pleasant and comfortable equipment for heavy use.</p>
