Targus Expands Portable DVD Player Case Options

August 10, 2004—Targus Inc., inventor of the notebook case and the preeminent provider of mobile accessory solutions, today added the Portable DVD Player Travel Backpack to its line of DVD player carrying case solutions. The new case accommodates almost all DVD player brands on the market and is ideal for traveling.

As portable DVD players come down in price, Targus has addressed the growing popularity of these fragile devices with its line of cases designed to protect users’ mobile entertainment investments. Targus’ new backpack has made carrying a DVD player completely hands- and trouble-free. The DVD backpack features the exclusive Targus Vehicle Viewing System, which transforms the backpack into an in-car viewing center to create an inexpensive alternative to using a built-in car DVD player system.

Constructed of durable black nylon and measuring 11.2 inches by 2.5 inches by 12.6 inches, the backpack can accommodate DVD players up to 9 inches. Internal padding and a security strap that holds the DVD player in place ensure maximum protection when traveling. With the side carrying handle the case can also be carried briefcase-style. The case also includes a retractable media storage compartment that holds seven DVDs, padded compartments, an internal divider for remote control and accessory storage, and an adjustable head phone storage strap.

Targus’ new Portable DVD Player Travel Backpack is currently available online at www.bestbuy.com or on Targus’ Web site (www.targus.com). Suggested retail price for the Portable DVD Player Travel Backpack is $29.99 and includes a limited lifetime warranty.
