Introducing the REAL iPad! The device is so technologically advanced, it makes organizing your life as easy as putting a pen to paper. A parody in itself, the iPhone inspired notepad creates some good social commentary, even if it is unwitting.
As I always look into things much deeper than I should, I believe what the designers of the iPhone inspired notepad were thinking when they created this was that we can get so carried away with new gadgets and technology that we often fail to step back and realize that sometimes these devices aren’t all that convenient and may not offer much more than a pen and paper. And that’s what I think makes the iPhone inspired notepad so cool. That, and you can write lots of dirty jokes on it.
