As the number of e-reader devices grows larger by the minute, Periscope®, a leading manufacturer and marketer of cover lights for e-reader and traditional hardcover and paperback books, today announced that its popular Periscope® Lighted Folio for the Amazon Kindle 2 (6”-screen) is also compatible for use with both the new Amazon international edition and new Barnes & Noble nook e-readers.
“We had to wait a little while to make sure our Folio works with the new Barnes & Noble nook reader, but we now know for certain that it is a perfect fit,” Periscope President Eric Fisherman said today. “Our existing Lighted Folio is a perfect cover and light solution for the remarkably popular Barnes & Noble nook and the Amazon Kindle international edition.”
Available for immediate delivery from www.periscopelight.com at a suggested retail price of $49.95, this remarkable “all-in-one” unit features a retractable Periscope® twin LED reading light, deluxe cover, and notebook/pen holder in one attractively designed black leatherette unit.
Ideal for reading at home or on the road, consumers simply slip their Kindle 2, Kindle international edition, or nook into the custom designed holder, pull up the retractable, twin LED reading light, and begin reading in any low light environment — in bed, on a bus, train, or airplane, as well as in a car or class room. When finished, they can retract the reading light into the spine of the cover, turn off their e-reader, and close the cover. Everything stays together until the next time it is needed!
The Lighted Folio’s built-in 5”X8” notepad and pen-holder make the Periscope® Lighted Folio ideal for students and professionals alike. If they don’t need to use the notepad they can snap the cover open for one-handed reading! The built-in retractable twin LED light is powered by three “AA” batteries (not included). The cover features a magnetic snap closure that secures the e-reader when traveling. A mini-travel 110-220V AC adapter is available for purchase separately.
