urban-armor-gear-ipadproOwning a brand new smartphone or tablet often brings with it one specific accessory that is rather difficult to prise it away from — the protective case. However, with so many different kinds of model that are available in the market, just which particular tablet case that you would want to pick up for the latest collection of iPads from Apple? Urban Armor Gear has just the thing for you — with its brand new Metropolis Series Cases for the new iPad Pro 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch models.

Urban Armor Gear (or UAG for short) always churns out cases that are tough as nails without having to sacrifice on design and aesthetics, boasting of unmatched, MIL-SPEC drop protection. The new Metropolis Series Case for the new iPad Pro 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch models will be able to deliver 360-degree comprehensive protection from both drops and shocks, where there is a smart cover that protects the screen as well as doubling up as a multi-position stand. In the corners lie bumpers that deliver additional drop protection for the iPad’s display.

Not only that, UAG’s Metropolis case will also boast of onboard storage for the Apple Pencil. The removable smart cover will also be able to play nice with Apple’s Smart Keyboard. Similar to all of the other UAG products, oversized ports and cutouts enable the use of 3rd party cables and accessories.

Michael McVerry, Senior Marketing Manager at UAG, shared, “As devices continue to evolve and move touchscreens closer to the edge where it is more exposed to damage, our Metropolis Series Case provides maximum protection for the display, without adding unnecessary bulk and weight or interfering with touchscreen accessibility.”

The Metropolis Series Case for the iPad Pro 10.5-inch will arrive in Black, Red, and Cobalt shades which will retail for $59.95, while the Metropolis Series Case for the iPad Pro 12.9-inch too, will have similar color choices. The only difference lies in its price with a $89.95 tag.

Wacom Clipboard intends to turn your business paperless

wacom-clipboardWacom is an old name when it comes to digitizer tablets as well as styluses that simply work, and work well. This time around, the Wacom Clipboard has been revealed to transform your business into a more paperless environment. Granted, one can never end up with a truly paperless environment, but there is the possibility of minimizing whatever use of paper wherever possible. With the Wacom Clipboard, such a vision becomes easier, since businesses are able to transform paper documents into the digital format — in real-time.

Also known as the PHU-111, the Wacom Clipboard is a smartpad which will allow users to complete and sign documents with the help of standard paper forms as well as ink. It will then convert the documents to a digital version in real-time. Biometric handwritten signatures will also be able to be captured and attached. The digital documents can subsequently be stored on local PCs, or simply have them uploaded immediately to servers or the cloud for easy document management.

Businesses such as service, healthcare, insurance industries and public sectors that still require paper forms but would like to move to a digital archive can always rely on the Wacom Clipboard to deliver a secure and easy method of instantaneously digitizing and saving these paper documents, all without having to change existing paper-based workflows.

The electronic clipboard will be paired to a host PC or a mobile device through Bluetooth, although there is also an option for USB connectivity when making use of a PC. Anytime a document is placed onto the Wacom Clipboard, the integrated barcode reader will be able to automatically identify the document, communicating with the PC or mobile device in order for the corresponding digital document to be called up.

While there is no word on pricing just yet, the Wacom Clipboard is tipped to be ready for shipping at the end of July 2017.
