Magic | ‘Majik
Noun

The power of apparently influencing the course of events by using mysterious or supernatural forces.

To say I wasn’t overly impressed when I first watched Steve Jobs debut the iPad, is an understatement. I hated it. I didn’t believe the claims, the hype– I guess I was thinking inside the box as opposed to outside of it. That’s why Steve Jobs is a billionaire and, well I’m not.

I’m sure it really feels great in-hand, and I know the glass surface is going to be super-silky smooth to the touch. For the materials, I give an A+. You can’t get any better in my opinion.
