<p>You knew with a name like the iPad, the jokes they would follow but <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=41296440&amp;ref=sr_list_4&amp;&amp;ga_search_query=ipad&amp;ga_search_type=handmade&amp;ga_page=2&amp;includes[]=tags&amp;includes[]=title">Hiphandmaids on Etsy</a> takes it to a new level.</p>

<p>They have developed a real, usable case which is in the form of a feminine napkin &#8212; and yes it has wings. Etsy is selling these &#8220;cases&#8221; for $30.00 US for the month of March as a promotion.</p>

<p>Here is how Etsy describes the case on their website:</p>

<p>&gt;With its durable vinyl outer layer and plush, quilted-cotton sleeve, the iMaxi helps keep your iPad clean and dry. Plus, the iMaxi&#8217;s Velcro-latched, advanced wing design wraps snugly around your device, so your iPad always stays where it should. Best of all, it shields it from all those unsightly and embarrassing data leaks that would make any motherboard worry!</p>

<p>&gt;Each handmade iMaxi can be easily customized to fit your active lifestyle. Please view other listings for different color options including our &#8220;lived in&#8221; red thread interior. If you don’t see a color you like, just ask!</p>

<p>So if I bought one for Rene, which should I get, white or lived in ?</p>

<p>A couple more pics after the break!</p>

Japan&#8217;s Solid Alliance decided that the bar for &#8220;crazy earphones&#8221; just hadn&#8217;t been raised high enough and so they&#8217;ve released these adorable/idiotic plastic embellishments which make you look like you have various implements coming out of your ears.

<p>Japan&#8217;s <a href="http://www.solidalliance.com/gadgets/crasy_earphone.html">Solid Alliance</a> decided that the bar for &#8220;crazy earphones&#8221; just hadn&#8217;t been raised high enough and so they&#8217;ve released these adorable/idiotic plastic embellishments which make you look like you have various implements coming out of your ears.  For those who may not have already seen the first set of earphones they consisted of: sushi, paws, banana and a large bolt.  These 4 new earbuds consist of:  an apple with an arrow through it, a knife which looks like it is stabbed through your head, a mushroom, and a little ear.  </p>

<p>They&#8217;ll cost you ¥2000, or about $20 and have a 3.5mm adaptor so they will fit in your iPhone or iPod touch. </p>

<p>So, am I the only one who likes these earphones ? Would you ever buy Crazy Earphones for yourself&#8230; or a friend ?</p>
