More iPad protection giveaways from TUAW and NewerTech
A while back we did a review and giveaway of some iPad protection products from our buddies at NewerTech. Just before I headed off to the high seas for three weeks, I received some additional swag from NewerTech that I thought would be perfect for our TUAW Independence Day holiday giveaways. While I won't review the products in this post, you can certainly either read the previous post or visit the NewerTech website for details. What we'll be giving away are three different products to three readers -- a NuVue screen protector, a NuGuard Carbon protection kit (seen at right, including a NuVue screen protector and a microfiber polishing cloth), and a NuGuard Leather protective casing. What do you need to do to enter the giveaway? Just leave a comment below telling us what your favorite iPad app is. We'll randomly choose three winners who will get one of the three NewerTech products. Here are the contest rules: Open to legal US residents of the 50 United States, the District of Columbia, and Canada (excluding Quebec) who are 18 and older. To enter, leave a comment naming your favorite iPad app. The comment must be left before midnight on Wednesday, July 7th, 2010, 11:59PM Eastern Daylight Time. You may enter only once. Three winners will be selected.

TUAW First Look and giveaway: A flood of NewerTech iPad accessories
Judging from the number of questions I'm asked about cases for iPads, it appears that the second decision after "What iPad should I buy?" is often "What iPad case should I consider?" Thanks to Newer Technology, TUAW received a sampling of their new line of iPad cases, and we have a few to give away to TUAW readers. We'll start with the low end of the line and work up to the pièce de résistance. Now, there are some folks who want to feel the smooth metal and glass of their iPad and just need some protection on the screen surface. For those folks, NewerTech has come up with the NuVue Clear Screen Protector for iPad. It's US$9.99 and has a one year warranty. While it's not going to protect the back of your iPad from scratches or dings, it keeps the screen in pristine condition. You can use any of the other cases I'll describe to protect the rest of the device. There's also a version that can keep your data from prying eyes, which is important if you work in the healthcare business. It's called the NuVue Privacy Protector and costs $39.99. Many people are going to want to protect the iPad case, and that's the idea of the NuGuard line. First, there's the NuGuard Silicone protective casing, which is flexible and easy to put on or remove. It has a nice, non-slip surface, and it even includes a couple of indentations on the back to ensure a tight grip when your iPad is in your hands. The NuGuard Silicone casing sells for $17.99 and comes in green, blue, red, orange, black, or semi-transparent "arctic frost."
