Several weeks ago, I was sent a few items from Boxwave to review. I did a quick review of the three products and promised to do a more extensive review and then provide a means to win each of the goodies.Today we start in with my most used and most liked of the three, the Quorky pouch iPad case. I pretty much take my iPad 2 everywhere and this case makes it easy to transport pretty safely in style. It fits an iPad 1 but it feels a little tighter, it should accept the New iPad (iPad 3) with no problems.
From the product page on Boxwave: "Cork is harvested using bark tissue from trees indigenous to the Mediterranean region. Farmers harvest the single layer of exterior bark, leaving the tree trunk and interior bark intact and able to regrow all that was taken. A single Cork Oak tree can be harvested from every 8-14 years of its 200-year life."
So you can feel pretty good about using cork as it's environmentally friendly (though a part of me often wonders how the tree feels about having it's outer "skin" sliced off every few years?).
