OtterBox Increases “Strength” Of BlackBerry Torch 9800 Smartphone

Fort Collins, CO (I-Newswire) November 23, 2010 - Fort Collins, COLO. – Available for various BlackBerry® smartphones, the pink OtterBox® “Strength” line now offers protection for the BlackBerry® Torch™ 9800 smartphone. These innovative Commuter Series® cases are a stylish way to keep the BlackBerry Torch smartphone pristine while supporting a good cause. OtterBox donates 10 percent of the purchase price from each “Strength” case to the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade to support research to find a cure for breast cancer and programs that provide access to breast health care, regardless of a person’s ability to pay.

“Supporting the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade has been an amazing opportunity for OtterBox and our customers,” said OtterBox founder and CEO Curt Richardson. “We’ve enjoyed the reveal of each new ‘Strength’ case and to date have donated more than $80,000 to the cause.”

The OtterBox Commuter Series case for the BlackBerry Torch smartphone is unlike any other case on the market, providing customized layers for extra protection. First, a white silicone skin fits snuggly around the back with plugs that fit precisely into all ports to prevent damage from dirt and dust. Second, a pink polycarbonate shell snap onto the front and another piece to the back allowing full functionality of the phone’s sliding feature and touch screen. The case also includes a self-adhering screen protector to keep the display scratch free.*
