This time, we have some accessories you might not see everyday, not for the iPad, but for Amazon's Kindle eReader, which is supposedly very popular amongst the troops in Afghanistan. It is a space-saving solution indeed and I am glad to hear that during war, the soldiers there find the time to enjoy a good e-book. The new M-Edge Camouflage line of accessories comes to complete the soldiers' needs, as they can now take the Kindles with them, whenever they move base, without risking a scratch on their gadgets or being seen by the enemy. Does this news seem a little out of place only to me?

“We want to show our appreciation for the men and women fighting overseas day in and day out on our behalf, and our Camouflage Jacket launch is a meaningful connection to the cause,” says Patrick Mish, CEO of M-Edge Accessories. We’re observing a steady increase in eReader use by deployed troops as a space-saving source of reading and entertainment while away from home. We are excited to offer these men and women a specialized Camouflage jacket option that offers outstanding device protection, while allowing both our company and our customers to help support a morale-boosting service organization like E-Books for Troops.”

The E-Books for Troops program will receive a camouflage jacket and an e-Luminator booklight for every Kindle they purchase. M-Edge makes this donation to the project because their recent collaboration which will hopefully make the recreation times of soldiers in Afghanistan a little more pleasant. These new protective accessories come in three different design styles, which you can also see on M-Edge's Sport Line of similar products. The e-book readers are thus protected by sand, wear, tear and screen scratches as well. The names of the three new jackets announced by M-Edge are Leisure Jacket, Latitude Jacket and Journey Bag. They are available on the manufacturer's official website.
