Make a Bold Impact With OtterBox

FORT COLLINS, CO--(Marketwire - November 4, 2008) - Otter Products, LLC announces the new Impact Series™ case for the BlackBerry® Bold™ smartphone from Research In Motion (RIM) (NASDAQ: RIMM). This skin-style case combines durable silicone with impact absorbing features to dissipate impact away from your smartphone with added bump protection.
