svorn

The SVØRN Arcus carabiner keyring is a traditional carabiner with a futuristic alien style. It’s made from a light weight Zinc alloy with a Chrome Noir finish (black chrome).

iDea CT1080 Tablet review

10 tablet

Before 2010, there were no touch-centric tablets, only laptops that had stylus-driven screens.
