Description

BACKGROUND OF INVENTIONThe present invention generally relates to cases for electronic devices, and more particularly relates to an adjustable protective case for an electronic device.Portable electronic devices have become very popular and ubiquitous in many different areas of the world and among many different groups of people. Examples of popular portable electronic devices include laptop computers. handheld computers (i.e., iPAD® and Kindle®), portable DVD and CD players and portable gaming devices. These electronic devices contain many different electrical components which may easily be damaged by environmental factors and therefore must be protected adequately. As a result, electronic devices are almost always housed in hard casings.Technology associated with portable electronic devices has rapidly evolved in at least one important way—miniaturization and downsizing. Modern portable electronic devices have become increasingly smaller and sleeker with little or no compromise in...
