OtterBox 1921 New Ruggedized Treo Case

Posted By: Ryan Kairer Thursday, May 10, 2007 11:05:19 AM

Otter Products has released the OtterBox 1921 Treo case, a rugged, polycarbonate case that protects Palm Treo 680, 750 and 755p series smartphones from water, dust, dirt and drops. The casing completely seals the device from the elements while providing access to the full keypad, touch screen, volume and program buttons.

OtterBox 1921 Treo CaseComposed of durable polycarbonate/ABS and rubber overmolding for grip and drop protection, the OtterBox 1921 offers Treo users the ultimate guard against the elements. A rigid screen cover protects the LCD and flips up for interactive screen use. Case also provides use of the camera through a clear window on the back.

An innovative compound latch on the 1921 provides users an easy open yet secure closing and an external stylus holder adds convenience. Donaldson acoustic vents enable excellent sound transmission while protecting against dust and water. Headset, sync and charge connectors remain accessible and Treo 750 users can even operate IR through the case.

"The latest addition of the 1921 allows users to take their Treo 680, Treo 750 and Treo 755p smartphones virtually anywhere," said Curt Richardson, CEO of Otter Products, LLC. "What makes OtterBox different is not only the protection provided, but the ability for users to send an email or make a phone call right through the case, even if it’s raining."

The dimensions of the OtterBox 1921 are 5.1 in [130 mm] long X 3 in [76 mm] wide X 1.9 in [48 mm] thick (including latch). Weight is 0.6 lb [.27 kg] (case only).

The OtterBox 1921 retails for $129.95 and it will be available for purchase in early June.

Otterbox also makes the OtterBox 1920, which fits Treo 650 and Treo 700 series.

They are quite proud of it

Out in the country there is an expression "They are real proud of (whatever). In Yankee English that means its over priced. I don't expect them to give it away but $129.95US for the box and an additional $29.95 for the belt clip?

They are quite proud of their product.

and continue as if nothing had happened."

On Topic: My brother runs a rafting service on the Occoee. If he had a Treo the Otterbox would be a necessity. Still, I see other boxes for $20-$30 bucks. I think the Otter Company figures it can "soak" the rich boys with their expensive Treos.

Worth what people will pay...

Seems to me like a fair amount of engineering went into the box, and it's not like they're going to sell lebenty-million of them.

Priced too high? Don't buy it. Pretty simple...
