Our Famous Garage Sale is still going, with new things added almost daily. Items start at just $1 — and you’re sure to find some gems in there with a little digging.

Father’s Day is just around the corner and don’t forget to congratulate your recent graduate with a new Mac! With up to $100 any MacBook Pro or iMac with some extras thrown in, this is a sale you don’t want to miss out on.

_Dear Friends,_

I was going to ride over to Lake George, NY today for the annual Americade Motorcycle rally, but the weather is cold, rainy and brisk so I am wimping out on that and will make my way over to the rally in Laconia, NH this weekend instead.

Apple’s big developer’s conference launches on Monday. “*WWDC, the WorldWide Developer’s Conference,*”:https://developer.apple.com/wwdc/ is the biggest Apple event of the year, and we can expect a peek at what we are likely to see from Apple over the next year or so. I am sure we will see previews of the new Mac and iOS operating systems, and of course, the rumor mills are buzzing with speculation about new products.

We will have a complete run-down for you in the next issue of Kibbles & Bytes, but keep an eye on our “*blog, Barkings!,*”:http://blog.smalldog.com our “*Twitter feed,*”:http://twitter.com/hellosmalldog and our “*Facebook page*”:https://www.facebook.com/smalldogelectronics for up-to-the-minute news and announcements as they happen throughout the week.

Now is a great time to buy that new Mac or iPad with the great financing program that is being offered in our retail stores. You can get 0% interest for 6, 12, or 18 months depending upon the value of your invoice. We launched this program this past weekend and customers are finding the application process to be fast and easy to manage.

I want to give a shout-out to David Boyd who will be leaving Small Dog in a couple weeks. David has been with the company for nearly 7 years and is one of those employees that really epitomizes our operating principle of “do it all with enthusiasm and joy”. David started out as a salesperson in our S. Burlington store when it first opened, rapidly moved to our tech department and really found his place as a full time consultant, solving customer problems, teaching classes and helping our business customers with sophisticated installations. We are going to miss David and wish him the best in his future endeavors.

With all the technology around us on a day-to-day basis, Pong thought it would be a good idea to reduce the amount of radiation given off by your iPhone. So, they made a case to do exactly that!

Grab the newsletter exclusive this week: *Save $15 on any Pong case for your iPhone, and we’ll also include a Pong stylus (a $20 value)!* These styluses are in short supply and high demand, so grab yours before they’re all gone.

Our lovely Product Management department was kind enough to provide me with a unique case to test for my iPhone 5. In a few short weeks (late June), we’ll have the newest line of Brenthaven iPhone 5 cases that are pretty cool!

The EXO case for iPhone 5 is a highly protective case that combines their unique BX2 foam protection system that they introduced in their high-end camera case line. (“*Read more about Brenthaven and their legendary warranty here.*”:http://www.brenthaven.com/why-brenthaven) The main reason I like it (and why many others may as well) is because it’s a very minimal case. The iPhone is a beautiful creature, so why would you want to cover that pretty little thing up with some bulky case? I know, I know — because some of us are clumsy and drop our beloved phone occasionally.

But what if you could find a case that was both protective __and__ minimal? Whoa, what? That’s the EXO!

Another neat feature is the cool little “kickstand” that pops out of the back to help prop up your phone horizontally or vertically. You can also use it to clip the phone to your pocket (Very 2000’s-esque…maybe some people still rock the cell phone belt clip, though, I don’t know.)

I think the best part of this case is the sweet video Brenthaven made to promote the case. Check it out “*here.*”:http://youtu.be/Yj6Ko0nEhuI Apparently you can drop it from an airplane and it will still be ok. Hmmm…I wouldn’t test that, though.

Enjoy!
