iPad: It’s Official!!

The rumored Apple Tablet is called the iPad. It’s official! Sounds a bit weird and maxi-pad-ish, but whatever. It’s half an inch thin and weighs just 1.5 pounds with a 9.7 inch IPS display. It also has a 16GB to 64GB flash storage. It even has a compass   Bluetooth and Wifi of course…And omg, Jobs just said that you can fly to SF and Tokyo and watch video the whole way on one charge. That is 10 hours of video and 1 month of standby charge. OMG! He’s downloaded all these apps unmodified from the App Store. First, Facebook. He runs it in a tiny iPhone-size window oin the middle of the screen. But he can tap the “2x” button and run things full screen. It’s the same resolution, but just bigger.

A Cute, White Designer Netbook – HP Mini 110

Looks like the success of Vivienne Tam’s digital clutch spawned the creation of this new and much cheaper super cute white netbook. Designer Tord Boontie teams up with HP to create a lovely flora design which weaves around to create one extraordinary and sexy netbook. This new HP Mini 110 is said to feature Imprint 3D, the first ever three-dimensional surface technology which uses coats of in-mold decoration layering various inks, textures and colors to create complex and unique designs. What’s kind of neat about this netbook is that the design spills over to the palm rest and touchpad. Tord Boontie also designed 15 wallpapers, a custom theme, screen saver and icons, which of course come in the package. I really like the idea of cute, custom icons instead of the boring generic icons we’ve been seeing for decades.

Pricing begins at $399.00.

Cute Wall Art for Cute Laptop

Pink Laptop – check!
Mouse shaped like Hello Kitty – check!
Cute Desktop Image – ….checking!

Yes, a cute backdrop on your desktop is an absolute necessity at LIVINGcute. Both my work desktop and home laptop are decked out in MEOMI. I’m pretty happy with them.

Mari, on the other hand, is a stickler of dressing up her pink Vaio and indulges in weekly modifications of her desktop image – it keeps her consistently excited to see her laptop. And why not? You just dropped a grand on that gadget, might as well make it extra pretty.

Mari likes Meomi too but it seems they haven’t updated their selections in awhile… bummer! She also enjoys the poppy, vibrant colors of tokidoki. She mentioned that Pixelgirl has an ENDLESS amount of choices and spends her days off staring (drooling) at them for hours. Mari, you need to get out more often. Just kidding.
