… and I can’t take my hands off it! It arrived last Friday, and I’m getting addicted to it. So much that I didn’t even bother to Tweet it, or Facebook it or upload any photos to Flickr – until now. I managed to install lots of iPad apps and am still testing things out. …
The Wall Street Journal investigates a plethora of possible mockups and rumours.
Bought this at the cool stationery shop at Orchard Central. I like the envelope, which can hold scraps of paper. Designer hole puncher, bought at the same shop. Black cotton buds.
