The Typescreen: A Retro Typewriter Keyboard for your iPad

Take your tablet typing back in time with the Typescreen. The Typescreen is a new iPad accessory from the folks over at Spinninghat that converts your iPad into an old-timey typewriter.

The typewriter has been making an incredible comeback as-of-late. As certain companies try to eliminate keyboards altogether (such as Apple), consumers have become more drawn to them, especially to the granddaddy of all keyboards, the typewriter. The Typescreen works almost exactly like a real typewriter with the big exception being that instead of loading paper into it, you load your iPad or iPad 2. The Typescreen is the ideal item for Apple owners looking to add some retro and functional flavor to their iPads. This typewriter-inspired peripheral is labeled as a limited edition and is priced at $50.

Nutella Esperienza Italia 150 project

Nutella has been part of European and North American families for years, so it was no surprise that when the Nutella Esperienza Italia 150 project was released, four different jar images were revealed in honor of the Nutella brand and its culture.

Designed by ARC’S in Italy, the four jar designs involved the arts, landscapes and history, with each portraying a very unique and colorful approach to Italy. The art-themed package celebrated music, poetry and Italian cinema, while the landscape version paid homage to Italy’s beautiful architecture.

The Nutella Esperienza Italia 150 editions are limited in number, so make sure you get your fill of this chocolatey goodness before they run out. There is only one brand that is able to showcase Frederico Fellini, Rome and Vespas, and get away with it with such charming branding.
