Daily Edition

E-readers were a hot item this holiday season. If you were lucky enough to get one as a gift (or if you already own one), it's time to protect it. Targus unveiled several new cases at CES for some of the most popular e-readers - the Kindle 3, Sony's Daily Edition Reader and the Nook from Barnes & Noble.

Truss Case/Stand for Kindle 3
This case does double-duty - it's both a carrying case and hands-free viewing stand. The Truss Case/Stand easily converts into multiple positions for handheld, in-case and standalone viewing. Features include a tough, top-grain leather exterior, a soft, scratch-resistant inner lining and a secure wrap-around closure to keep your Kindle safe from bumps and scratches. Available in black (THZ031US) and brown (THZ03103US) at an MSRP of $39.99.Read more
