It didn’t take long for Apple’s iPad to impact the electronics industry. Now, one of the problems dealers encounter with these devices are non-tech savvy consumers using these products in ways installers did not intend.

The Garden City Park, N.Y.-based manufacturer Vidabox has an affordable solution that helps minimize the impact of consumers refreshing iPads.

Vidabox’s newly announced iPad Home Button Blocker is a simple solution that installers can employ to restrict access to an iPad2 and third-generation iPad’s home button. Designed to work with wall-mounted iPads, the product allows installers to set up an iPad2 or third-generation iPad as a dedicated control interface. Vidabox manufactures the iPad Home Button Blocker with glossy acrylic to match the finish of an iPad, plus the laser-cut frame is engineered to line up with the iPad exactly so it doesn’t block the front screen and front camera. Vidabox offers provisions to access the home button through the inclusion of a pin hole, and the product is available in a choice of black or white to match the color of an iPad.

The Vidabox Home Button Blocker can be used in any business that uses an iPad as a display device or interface.
