Anaheim, Calif. – Targus announced today
at Macworld that it has extended its Screen Protector with Clear View technology
line to the recently announced Apple iPad.
Clear View is a patent-pending technology that
protects touchscreen devices such as smartphones, e-readers and laptops from
fingerprints, scratches and smudges, and adds anti-glare treatment and a
specially formulated adhesive that prevents bubbles and
peeling.
The protective film features a microscopic landscape
of ridges and valleys that work to dissipate fingerprint oils, reducing prints
and smudges on the screen. These micro structures also reduce glare and when
combined with the properties of the film, create a scratch-proof surface, the
company said.
The Screen Protector is pre-cut for a precise fit on
the iPad and other touchscreen devices. “In addition to our current line of
fingerprint-resistant screen protectors for iPhone 3G, 3G S and the iPod Touch,
Targus is happy to extend its product line to include the recently released
iPad,” said Carolyn Perrier, accessories product management and marketing VP.
“As touchscreen devices become more prevalent, so is the need for keeping the
screens free from fingerprints and smudges for optimum
clarity.”
The Screen Protector for the iPad (model AWV1216US)
will be available in April.
