Wow, I like the top one on that 5th one. Can you tell I like clean and sleek. But, I don't think I'll be paying $119 for a book reader cover. Ug.

THAT IS SO NOT FAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I want a Genevieve cover for my Sony! Waaaaaaaa!!!!!!!

For those of you who don't know, Cole Haan is amazing and is actually worth the price you would pay for their stuff. I have one of their purses and about 10 pairs of shoes. Seriously, their leather is like butter.

Pretty. The fourth one reminds me of the Dooney & Bourke croc skin that was available in a limited edition for the Sony PRS 500.

OK, because a woman buys a $3000 purse and $500 shoes does not make some expensive designer merchandise "worth the price".

My guess is that you don't have the Apple tattooed on your ankle. To Apple folks design matters a lot and I believe it's one of the reason why their love Apple products so much.

I do like my iMac... and it is due to the design of the technical aspects of the OS... they rest is just icing.

I'm partial to the stuff by Patagonia myself. I don't think you could ever talk me into buying something from Cole Haan. Crocs are more my style.

all seem exceedingly expensive!
I remember my neoprene carrybag of my notebook (with zipper) only costed $15.
I would not purchase anything more expensive than $20 for that.
Perhaps good to look at the grey market on ebay?

Silly boy. I paid 200 for the purse (60% off) and the most I paid for their shoes was $275. I usually only pay $100 for the shoes. The purse is the softest thing I've ever touched and the shoes make my feet sing They have Nike Air soles so even a three inch heel is like walking in flip flops.

Wish I could find shoes like that - with a size 2 1/2 girls size foot, even Cole Haan is impossible. I'm stuck with Payless. Not that I've ever paid over 50 bucks for a pair of shoes in my life....but three inch heels that feel like flip flops is an eternal dream of mine.
