The Proporta Maya Case Gold: Metallics are IN Again for Fall

If you have been following fashion trends, then you’ll know that just as in years past, metallics are once again coming back strong this fall.

With this in mind, Proporta has just released their new Maya Case Gold, a fashion forward slipcase done in metallic gold leather with black embroidery; this should catch the eye of all fashion magpies without blinding anyone with too much bling.

Review: Proporta Gadget Bag - Asus Eee PC

When Asus brought out the Eee PC, they did think to include a case.  The neoprene case holds just the Eee PC itself, but if you need to carry the Eee PC and a few things, you’ll need something else.

Enter the Proporta Gadget Bag.

As you can see, it’s barely as wide as the Eee PC itself.  This case is the most ideal carrying solution that I have found for the Eee PC 701.  It is lightweight, very durable, and each compartment is padded so you won’t have to worry about bumps damaging your Eee or anything else.

Review: Ted Baker Charging Kit from Proporta

I actually received Proporta’s Ted Baker Charging Kit by mistake when asking Proporta for the Gadget Bag.  I offered to review it for them, and they accepted! :D  So, what makes this charging kit special?  Let’s take a look.

According to Wikipedia, Ted Baker is a clothing store in the UK; they are known for applying twists to their products.  I have never been to the UK, but on the Ted Baker website I learned that they are a designer clothing company, and the wikipedia entry reveals that they have been coming to this side of the pond as well.  Ted Baker was also featured in the upcoming James Bond Casino Royale film; let’s see if this charging kit is stylish enough for the intrepid James Bond to carry.

Proporta Introduces the 3G iPod Nano Echo - Mirror Case

Hannah popped a new goodie into my inbox this morning: Proporta is introducing a new accessory for the 3G nano, the Echo - Mirror Case.

It’s pretty! But I can already tell I’d have to dedicate minutes of my day to compulsively wiping it down; the Echo - Mirror Case looks like a gorgeous fingerprint magnet. ;-)

The Echo - Mirror Case utilizes the same concept as the Echo - Mirror Screen Protector, but protects your entire 3G nano in the process.
