We’re delighted to have a new Olloclip Quick-Flip case in our possession and on our test model iPhone 5.

A Happy Accident? You Decide – iPad Cover
The colors that Apple provide for their magnetic smart iPad covers are quite decent to most of us, red, blue, green, black etc but Simeon an iOS app developer fancied a tanned leather look that he hoped as it aged would look better.
