More covers for the iPad I don’t have

by

It seems like everyone is jumping into the iPad cover game. (What, does no one want to show off that they actually have one? If it were me, I wouldn’t hide my new toy away.  I’d want to make people on the subway jealous!) Regardless of my preference for in-your-face eltitism, iPad owners can dress it up and take it out, disguise it as a used book or even as a Moleskine–in fact, I’m sure someone out there has made some sort of scuba, underwater protective case.  I just haven’t found it yet.

But the newest and latest comes out of Eastern Europe’s trendiest country… no, don’t say Latvia.  Estonia!  Tallinn-based company “Portel” has recently introduced a hardy (and fashionable!) iPad cover, made out of felt, brass bolts, and leather.  What’s not to love?  It even has a nice strap so that you can tote it around like a purse (or a man-purse, for all the gentleman iPad lovers).  Sign me up!  Just one question, though:

Do they even have iPads in Estonia?
