For Immediate Release
Long Island, New York--June 5, 2003-- The Think Different Store (http://www.thinkdifferentstore.com) today announced an exciting new product it will be carrying: the Maclear Zip - finally a case that protects your entire iPod, while still giving you full access to the controls!
The Maclear Zip will change the way you view and use your new iPod. It is a clear, zippered case that fits around your iPod. Made from top quality ultra clear PTU material, the Maclear Zip protects the entire iPod body, including the screen and touch wheel. Although covered, the touch wheel is fully functional.
The Maclear Zip comes with a removable chrome belt clip stub, so now it’s zip it, protect it, use it, wear it, and show it off. When the belt clip stub is removed, it offers excellent protection when your iPod is being slid into and pulled out of other leather and plastic cases. You won’t want to handle your precious new iPod without it. It only costs $12.50 with the belt clip. Pre - order now and pay
only $10!
Zip up, it’s a rough world out there. The Maclear Zip is available at the ThinkDifferentStore.
The Maclear Zip is for the new 10GB/15GB/30GB model iPods.

Once I launch g3 I will redesign g2 and g1. The first iSkin design launched by [url=http://www.iskin4ipod.com]http://www.iskin4ipod.com[/url] was removed from the market 3 months ago. The existing stock of 3000 is being prepared for a 50% sell off this month sometime.

We are both the same company (http://www.iSkin.biz and [url=http://www.Maclear.biz]http://www.Maclear.biz)[/url] and manufacturer of both products in Shenzhen China. iSkin will be in production this week, but there are many accessories with it so some of these may not be finished this week and we are offering a free zip case to hold the iskined iPod with the first batch of iSkins G3. There are lots of bits and pieces that have to come together, this may happen this week?? Zip on the other hand is a case that fills a void that iSkin can not fill and that is that you can use it with another leather case or the case supplied by Apple and when you want to handle the real iPod without a case, it is great for all of that. I have it on mine and I love it.

I’m in Hong Kong too, also like to order the Zip. What should I do? Can you help me or should I order it from [url=http://www.thinkdifferentstore.com?]http://www.thinkdifferentstore.com?[/url] I think ship from Shenzhen China will be easier than from China to US, then from US to Hong Kong. Any suggestion? Thank you very much.

Most of the stores in Hong Kong will be carrying Zip so you can go to New Vision at Star Ferry Computer Mall to buy it. Watch our site and we will anounce when it is ready to be shipped to our resellers. Hong Kong is a beautiful city.
Products for iPod: I will be designing and manufacturing a number of new products for iPod and other electronic toys, like digital cameras, PDAs etc.
