Out of Print Kickstarter Project for iPad / Kindle E-Book Covers – Sweet!

by

This is awesome.. the first “True” ebook jacket for iPad – a unique and original lineup of out of print Ebook jackets for the iPad and Kindle Fire from the gang at www.OutofPrintclothing.com @outofprinttees. Some details from the Kickstarter Project… Made by the oldest bookbinder in the U.S., our cases are the first to look, feel and wear like an actual book. Each hardcover case features original book cover art licensed by Out of Print, printed on book fabric that has been treated to withstand constant wear and tear. Because it is made like a book, it will look better the more you use it. Inside our case, your eBook device is well-protected with a form-fitting cradle (designed by an MIT mechanical engineer) with design elements that allow for easy access to all important buttons and ports.

You can help KickStart this project HERE

NOTE: I felt the gang at Avenza would be interested in this data in order to produce a nice product for users of PDF maps in iOS. Basically, using this version on PDFmaps has more intelligence (like georeferencing – although it hasn’t been field verified yet). The map is now available online in the PDFmaps map inventory and available for free download.  Users of PDF Maps can access the map via their iOS device HERE.  Need PDF Maps? Get it right here in the iTunes store!  Here’s a handy QR code you can also use to grab the map!

Oh, a reminder… bookmark our designated ESRIUC news/feature archive to stay up to speed on the news from San Diego.
