I want a Microsoft Surface 3 tablet but sadly, with three kids, I can’t justify spending the money on on right now. Someday I’ll get one I hope, and when I do I want a rugged and tough case for it like the newest one just announced by UAG or Urban Armor Gear. The case doesn’t have any fancy name, just UAG Surface 3 Case and it doesn’t need a cute or fancy name either, it’s a rugged case that meets military drop test standards so I’m sure it will more than adequately protect your new Surface 3. Price is $69.95 and it will be available on April 24th. Details below for you..

Once upon a time I worked dirty jobs, still do from time to time, but I always had a problem with my phones and keeping them clean and scratch free and I always worried I’d break them. I went so far as to have a cheap flip phones that I would carry to swap out the sim card from my more expensive smartphone so I wouldn’t damage it. I need one of these. If you saw the first episode of the new season of Chuck then you saw him using a Sonim, hey if he can use one so can I!
