G-Form Extreme Sleeve protects iPad from dropped bowling ball

G-From Extreme Sleeve lets you drop a bowling ball on you iPad and not crack it open.

I always crack open gadgets in a way that lets me put them back together again. You wouldn’t think dropping a bowling ball on an iPad would also leave the device in working order. But it can, if your tablet is protected with a G-Form Extreme Sleeve.

At CES 2012, the guys from CNET’s The 404 tested the G-Form Extreme Sleeve by dropping a bowling ball on a working iPad 2.
