With spring now finally underway, I am happy to see so many more people outside enjoying the sunshine. It is a great time to get out there and be active. For those of you with Apple products on-the-go, we have some great solutions for keeping your devices protected.

The new “iPad”:http://www.smalldog.com/category/Apple/iPad/iPad_3rd_Gen/ rolled out in mid-March and our new line of cases for it shortly followed. Now we have ways to protect your investment from mobile wear and tear and the great news is that these cases also fit the iPad 2.

Speaking of protection, we have partnered with a company by the name of “Mack Worldwide”:http://www.smalldog.com/search?search=mack&page=1&refinecat=Services_and_Warranties|Third_Party to fill in the gaps that “AppleCare”:http://www.smalldog.com/applecare doesn’t cover. It also does a fantastic job of protecting any used Mac devices purchased from us at Small Dog. Lonnie writes more about it below.

Of course, I can’t forget about those used “MacBooks”:http://www.smalldog.com/category/Apple/MacBook/ we have for sale. What a great way to ease into the Apple world without breaking the bank!

All-in-all, it is shaping up to be a great spring. Come on down to Small Dog Electronics and pick up those new devices (or accessories for them) and get out there to enjoy the nice weather!

Let’s talk “Capo!”:http://www.smalldog.com/search/?search=capo&refinecat=Hammerhead I don’t know about anybody else, but when a new “iPad”:http://www.smalldog.com/category/Apple/iPad/iPad_3rd_Gen/ case comes into my store, I’m all over that like maple sugar on snow. For that reason, I was more than eager to purchase a new Capo case from our friendly Hammerhead line to protect my super-awesome new iPad. I got the case as an interim while I waited for my Hello Kitty case to come in the mail, but I ended up liking it so much that Kitty has been shelved.

So what is a Capo case? It’s a sleek, hard black plastic shell, very solidly manufactured, with a sweet velvet interior to clean and protect your iPad’s screen with every open and close. The Capo comes in “orange,”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/80116/hammerhead-capo-case-for-ipad-orange/at_bis “blue”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/80115/hammerhead-capo-case-for-ipad-blue/at_bis, “white”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/80114/hammerhead-capo-case-for-ipad-white/at_bis, “red”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/80113/hammerhead-capo-case-for-ipad-red/at_bis, and, my favorite, “black.”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/80112/hammerhead-capo-case-for-ipad-black/at_bis However, unlike its predecessor, the Hard Shell, the color is only on the leather panels on the front and back. Not only does it look snazzy, it does a good job of protecting my iPad, and it has the same open-close wake-sleep feature that the “Apple Smart Covers”:http://www.smalldog.com/search?search=Apple%20Smart%20Cover&page=1&refinecat=Apple do, adding extra value and convenience. It’s a perfect fit for my new iPad, and my “Hammerhead screen protector”:http://www.smalldog.com/search?search=Hammerhead%20screen%20protector&page=1&refinecat=Hammerhead (lovingly applied by yours truly) isn’t impacted at all by the case.

For me, the nicest thing about my Capo case is the high typing angle it affords me. There are three angles you can tilt your iPad up at to watch whatever your heart desires, too, which makes it perfect for any situation. In fact, it’s my favorite case right now! A+, would buy again.

h3. iPod nano & iPod shuffle

Is your mom always on-the-go with nothing but elevator music to listen to? Does she frequent the gym and run to the sweet sound of the other treadmills?

Surprise your mom this year with an “iPod nano”:http://www.smalldog.com/category/Apple/iPod/iPod_nano/ or “iPod shuffle”:http://www.smalldog.com/category/Apple/iPod/iPod_shuffle/ and add some music to her daily routine.

The iPod nano and iPod shuffle measure less than 1.4″ in height and 1.6″ in length. Its small size and and durable clip make these iPods great for mobile moms.
