@madmonday:

so what kind of case is that foxy?  my wife has a kindle fire & i would like to get her a nice case for the upcoming holiday.

thanks for any assistance

I hear good things about these, at least for the iPad. They sometimes have leather options if you email them.

thanks michael.

looks like i might actually get tuesday a gift that doesn't suck, or isn't really for me, but disguised as a gift for her 

[michaeljcr]

Madmonday, if you go for Portenzo, let me know how it turns out. I'm on the edge of getting the iPad (original) version by them as the Dodo failed me. Reviews seem pretty positive, so I'm hopeful.

Dupont ballpoint pen has arrived, Michael. Cleaned it immediately.

[michaeljcr]

That's filthy Seul. Not dirty filthy, just filthy, filthy…

I want one.

[Seul]

Fitted it with a black small refill (came with a medium black). Used it a bit on some custom forms and such. Really nice stuff!..

I'll keep an eye open, Michael

Wonderful pen! If they don't make a habit of using bottled ink, get them some Pilot ink cartridges, as they only take their own brand.

[hectic]

Thanks gents. I bought some cartridges for it.

per michaeljcr recommendation my kids got this for their momma:

upset that the type is sooo off center, sending them an email about it, but with the holiday upon us it is not much i can do at this point

I like the letter a lot…and the case o/course!

[michaeljcr]

Re: engraving, it's not great if that's not what was asked for, although through personal preference I like it off to one side. Does it seem structurally sound/well made?

[madmonday]

seems better than the dodo case in the durability category. i'll see how she likes it before i get on my letter writing campaign.
