The iMaxi Pad: An iPad Case – With Wings!

To date there have been three main observations made about the Apple iPad:

  1. It's a life-affirming oversized iPhone that's so wonderful it also cures cancer
  2. It's bigger than a phone but less functional than a laptop, neatly filling the non-portable non-useful market niche
  3. It sounds like a high-tech feminine hygiene product, with a fresh fruit aroma

The last point has been taken to its bitter and mercilessly logical conclusion with the introduction of the iMaxi — an iPad case in the shape of a sanitary towel. The iMaxi's description is best left to Hip Handmaids, the talented housewives who make this must-have accessory:

With its durable vinyl outer layer and plush, quilted-cotton sleeve, the iMaxi helps keep your iPad clean and dry. Plus, the iMaxi'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!

It's great that they went to the trouble of making this atrocity, but they should have just Photoshopped it — the only people conceited enough to buy one would probably want to pay for it with inside jokes and a cashier's cheque from the bank of Smugland.
