Let me preface this review by saying I'm writing it -- literally -- at 0334 on a Friday night / Saturday morning. What would compel me to write a review at this time of night? Mathematically: Airbender-encased iPad2 + 44oz Soda + Nyquil x dachshund = spill Allow me to explain. I went to bed (early) after taking a Nyquil because I didn't feel well. My wife came home with my favorite drink, a "Route 44" Diet Dr. Pepper (with vanilla and creme) from Sonic. Seeing that I was nearly asleep, she set the drink on my nightstand but in my Nyquil-enduced near-comatose state, I failed to process her saying "I brought you a Coke". (We're in Texas...all carbonated beverages are "Cokes". But I digress...) Our friendly, overweight, well-meaning dachshund awoke around 3 and needed to go outside. Again, in my tranquil (Nyquil) slumber, I didn't hear his whine to be let out and, the urge obviously too great a burden to bear, he dropped a deuce. In our bedroom. At the foot of the bed. Said decue began to smell, which (ironically) DID wake me up. I then entered into the following "conversation" with my wife: Me: "I think the dog pooped." Her: "What?" Me: "Howie. Pooped. In here, I think. It SMELLS like it's in here." Her: "What?" Me: "I wonder if it's in here..." At which point I proceeded to reach for the lamp on my nightstand... Very quickly (and in spite of the Nyquil) I realized what had happened. Let's just say 44 ounces of "Coke" makes an unforgettable sound as it lands on your iPad. Me: "CRAP*, CRAP*, CRAP*" (Note: this isn't actually what I said. But it's pretty darn close.) At any rate, and as you've probably figured out by now, the "soda" (for your northerners who have read along this far) had been spilled. Onto my iPad. I sprang into action (I am a firefighter when I'm not spilling drinks) and immediately began to triage the scene. My priority patient was quite obviously the iPad, and apparently in critical condition was the next-most-valuable thing visible: my recently-acquired New Trent Airbender ClamShell Keyboard Case. As you have probably figured out by now, neither was damaged by the spill. I attribute this, solely, to the Airbender Case. Now, I am not recommending that you try to re-create this scenario to test the case, nor am I saying that the case is waterproof (or Diet Dr. Pepper-proof). What I AM saying is that I spilled 44 ounces of deliciousness on my iPad and keyboard case, and everything -- EVERYTHING -- still works. Buy. This. Case.
