Type Cover gives Microsoft Surface a tactile keyboard
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Handhelds, Microsoft, PC / Laptop, Peripherals,
The Touch Cover is a futuristic multitouch keyboard accessory for the Microsoft Surface tablet that brings a thin profile and a measure of protection, but for those of you who'd prefer a tried and true tactile keyboard with real trackpad buttons, you'll wanna get a look at the Type Cover. Since the Touch Cover is a capacitive touch keyboard without any moving keys, it's the slimmer of the two, measuring in at 3mm thin compared to the Type Cover's 5mm thickness.

Touch Cover for Microsoft Surface tablet sports multitouch keyboard
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Handhelds, Microsoft, Peripherals,
The first accessory announced for the new Microsoft Surface tablet today is the Touch Cover. A seemingly brilliant take on the tablet cover accessory, the Touch Cover serves as both a protective cover for Surface, as well as a full multitouch keyboard. You just open up the Surface kickstand, and the Touch Cover lays flat (3mm thin) and even registers typing faster than any other keyboard currently on the market, according to Microsoft. You get a full keyboard and touchpad. If that isn't your jam, you can opt for the Surface Type Cover instead.

We just hit you with our full Apple iPad Smart Case review, and you should really check that out if you're considering picking up Apple's first full case for its popular tablet. In addition to the written review, we've put together a gallery of images showing off the good and the bad--and there's a lot of bad in our mind. As you'll see, ports don't line up with the holes in the case, and there's an odd lip all around the perimeter that just makes it awkward to hold. Go and judge for yourself in our iPad Smart Case gallery, and let us know what you think.

Apple releases Smart Case for new iPad
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Apple, Handhelds,
Apple has announced the new Smart Case accessory for the new iPad. The Smart Case is similar to the Smart Cover that's been available since the iPad 2 shipped, but it protects both the front and back of the new iPad shell. It's available in six colors, and can even be personalized with free laser engraving, a first for an Apple accessory. The Smart Case also features the familiar tri-fold design that the Smart Cover has, allowing you to comfortably use the iPad to type and watch media. Check out all of today's Apple news coming out of the WWDC 2012 keynote.
Alice Temperley to Launch New Line of Scarves
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Designers,
The designer - who created Pippa Middleton's gown for the evening reception at last year's royal wedding - is thrilled to have the opportunity to focus on her first loves, "prints and textiles."
"I am really excited to launch a new collection dedicated to scarves. It has always been an important part of what we do, but now we can really focus on prints and textiles which is my first love," she said.
The collection will include a limited-edition Medal style launching in June, which will celebrate Britain's Olympics and Diamond Jubilee. Alice also wanted to create a range of scarves because she loves wearing them herself.
"I wear scarves as part of an everyday uniform; it is a great wardrobe companion, perfect for travelling, doubling as a wrap on the beach or adding color or a seasonal print to your outfit. With the opening of our first flagship store in the autumn, now is the right time to expand into new categories," she added.
Bowden + Sheffield Minimalist iPad cases are beautifully functional
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Apple, Design, Hot Deals,
We know that it's hard to find variety when looking for a great iPad case. Our main problem with the cases is that we want something that adds a level of form and function while also offering protection, but we don't want something that hard to take the iPad out of, because we don't want to use an iPad that's stuck in a bulky case. Up until now, there's been no way for us to have our cake and eat it too, but that's set to change with the success of the Bowden + Sheffield Minimalist iPad Cases Kickstarter project. While the project wraps up in 16 more hours as of this writing, it's surpassed its $20,000 goal. What makes this case so good? Well, for starters, both cases look fantastic. The case designs are similar, with the difference lying in the materials.
