Great Gift for Hershey Kiss Lover
Looked brand new, but without the box. This dish made 14 years ago looked new and played all its "Kiss" songs.
My wife was thrilled with this gift for Mother's Day.
She's a Hershey Kiss junky.

Mini Keyboard Case
This new model of the Mini keyboard case fits both the Mini and the Mini with Retina display.
It would be hard to find a keyboard case that provides more protection from the environment or is more rugged than this one. If you need this kind of protection, it increases the Mini bulk by at least 3 times and weighs in at 1 pound 12 oz. or 800 grams when fully loaded.
Paper directions for installing the Mini into the case are terrible and will turn a 5 minute installation into 30 minutes or more while you try to figure how to open the case for the first time, without breaking it. Directions say to remove the T-P-U sleeve. The What? They don't define it. T-P-U happens to be Thermoplastic Polyurethane if you are a chemist or silicone rubber skin if you are like me. You must peel this off the case front to get to the pry points on the case, which open it. Luckily, the people at New Trent provide a video on their website.
There should have been a paper packed in the outer box advising you to go to the New Trent support site for the installation video. It is excellent and you will learn many things never mentioned in the manual. Like open all port holes before peeling so that you won't wonder how to get it off the Home button at the bottom.
Other tips on the video show how to pull the hinge out from the back of the keyboard a bit and rest the bottom of the case on the notch above the power on key. If you don't, it will be top heavy and wobble. It works in portrait or landscape positions by rotating the case on the hub. The hinge is all metal, stays put where you set it and is very durable. Also, you’ll learn that you can remove the hinge arm completely from the back of the case by pinching the hub. When detached, the Apple Logo shows nicely through a window, when all you need is the case without the keyboard.
My keyboard was 20 minutes from full charge on arrival. It came with a USB charge cable, but you do need to provide your own 5 volt USB power source. A red LED turns to green when fully charged. There is also a yellow LED for caps lock. Mine doesn't light, but the function works so I'll live without it. Pairing is one time only and easy. Make sure you have the Mini’s blue tooth turned on, turn on the keyboard, push the connect button, a blue LED will blink, type in the pairing number and go. In the future, you will only need to turn the keyboard on.
I have touch-typed with my man-hands on small keyboards like this in the past, so I had no problems typing fast on this one. The shift keys took some practice. I typed this review using this keyboard, something I would not have attempted using the on screen. This opens up a whole new world of things I might now do with the Mini and makes note taking a snap.
This is the case you need to protect your investment if you are active and on the go. Nothing is better.

Glad I Tried One
I thought I'd give one of these a try and I'm very happy with it.
I have 10 cards in there and 5 twenty dollar bills in the pocket made for them.
When I pull the tab to open it, the 4 cards I use the most are exposed for easy extraction. No more bulky wallet for me.
