Could today be the day that all technogeeks would rejoice when iPad2 will finally be released after months of speculation on how the specs gonna be? Thinner, lighter, speed bump, dual camera and yadda, yadda, yadda? I hope so... though the latest rumor from an insider saying that iPad 2 launch isn’t the one that we should be getting excited about, instead we should reserve our enthusiasm for the iPad 3, which is apparently due later this year. Is it? Why? Coz THAT is gonna be one major redesign of the beloved tablet. Reduction in overall size, I suppose?
Anyway. Reserve our excitement or not, we all gotta see what iPad2 has in store for us first before we could make any more judgment. Then from there on we can lust over or dream of getting a newer version of iPad - the iPad Mini - to compliment this bigger sibling after its launch today. To be hones,t it's kinda tiring to read all these rumors after these months - and I can't wait to see the real thing when it hit the conference later. Oh btw, I did call Apple store to ask whether I can reserve the new iPad2, but their answer "we haven't get any instruction from Apple yet to do that..". Errks... I know I'm being too eager too early!
So, for the final installment in the countdown towards the unveiling of iPad 2, I'm bringing you the mother of all iPad cases. Well, sort of coz this one is from a major fashion house. Introducing the Yves Saint Laurent iPad folder in a very chic, shiny patent leather. If you happen to read my previous post, (the one with Harper's Bazaar clipping) you must've noticed that YSL has previously released an iPad folder under their CHYC version in smooth leather. Yet I think this one looks much better, with an embossed, stitched-detail 'YSL' logo to feed your inner conspicuous in you.
What I like about this one is how the gadget would be filled inside - i.e. thru the cutout slot like seen in Burberry and Dior Homme. Inside it is lined with suede, while having tabs to secure it in a folded state.

Oh, wait. Why am I showing you the pix that is already being shown everywhere in the blogosphere? That's not very 'original', don't you think? Thankfully I have other photos to show... since I got one myself. Say hellooo to my YSL patent leather iPad case. Ha!
If you read my previous tweet you might've seen a glimpse of it. Where to get this beauty? Probably at any YSL store, but I got mine from Net-a-Porter.
Wait...! Before you click the e-shopping website yourself, I have to tell you the bad news though. This iPad case has already sold out since they have very, very limited stock. Yes, right after I purchase it, they're totally gone! Gone in 60 seconds! So, I think I'm among the lucky ones to have it (but unlucky to my bank balance...yikes!).
Anyhow... you can still get other iPad case out there in the market - but none can match this beauty! :P
Still, one thing's missing: dude, where's my iPad2? I'm ready to get one!
