Press release
High Wycombe, UK, 4th April 2007 – GEAR4, the leading UK audio accessories brand, today announced the arrival of the GEAR4 iVAK - an über-cool case that provides a hard shell with a soft feel for iPod nano or video.
The GEAR4 iVAK is an innovative two-piece jigsaw-design case that clips together around the iPod, creating a seamless shell. The liquid rubber coating gives a completely unique soft feel to the hard case and is scratch resistant to keep it looking good as new while it does the same job for your iPod!
It also features a in-built hard plastic screen unlike most other cases today that offer an additional screen protector that can be difficult to get into position. This, combined with the click-wheel film protector, creates a resilient and shock-resistant quality for complete protection.
Also included is a funky neck strap and headphone wrap for keeping your wires in order! The GEAR4 iVAK is available in a variety of vibrant colours that match the iPod nano range perfectly, plus a stylish black or white option for the 30Gb, 60Gb and 80Gb iPod Video.
Tom Dudderidge, CEO of GEAR4, commented: "We have launched this new range of cases in conjunction with Vakaadoo, who already have an outstanding reputation for superbly designed cases. We've always loved their innovative and unique products and so we've joined forces to bring to market the GEAR4 iVak – a product that combines great design with impressive functionality."
