Today we received an email from a David Wong in Hong Kong who has designed his own iPod case. Inspired by the late actress, Audrey Hepburn, David has created the sheep skin Hepburn Bag for iPod. “I love [to] design things and would like to see if a stylish design, with thoughts and characters behind it can win over the “You-have-seen-it-all-computer-accessory” stuff. After all, I love my iPod and its spirit; I really believe that it deserves a more classy fashion statement.” The Hepburn Bag includes a belt clip and detachable carry strap. The case is available for pre-order for $26 and will be available next month. Limited production of 100 only.

Neat. Since this is up there, I should mention that I’m developing a new iPod dock inspired by Imelda Marcos.

I don’t see anything majorly wrong with David Wongs English. Don’t be racist, just because he’s from Hong Kong. Grow up, and read the news post for what it is.

I agree, it’s not that bad. My Japanese teacher in high school was a lot of fun to listen to. She was a nice lady…
Seriously though, what Me said was kind of funny…

If you didn’t know, most Hong Kong chinese speak the King’s english, as they were a British colony oh not so long ago. And believe me, it sounds more like Prince Charles than pidgen-english.

most people who find humour in “engrish” sadly come from a country where most of its inhabitants can barely handle just one language..
pa-pow!

“Me”... you narrow minded… Why don’t you focus on the product? Oh, I see… It’s easy to be EnglishCentric right? How many languages do you speak? Can you communicate with others in a different language? Do you know where’s Hong Kong? Anyway, discrimination is still extremelly popular, and this is not a forum for that. BTW, if my English is not that good is because it’s not my mother’s language

Dear all, please forgive my poor English and communication skills. I know it is poor writing on the website and I am grateful for your patience. When I was set ting up the website, my friends suggested me to share my inspiration of design so friends and customers could have some ideas on the process. I will continue to improve the website and hope you will give me more ideas, comments on the bag and all, thanks ^_^

Nice work David, please don’t take notice of those who didn’t care about your design.
I believe the majority of viewers to this site are not racist and your english is far better than some native people.

Looks great. It’s nice that you actually took it from thinking about it to doing it. That puts you ahead of 98% of people.

Hey David, Cool idea to only produce 100…just enough to get a new G5!
Say, perhaps you can have Tiffany’s of New York sell a few for you at a hefty mark-up…maybe make a limited-limited edition in Tiffany turquoise!
