Turn Your iPad Into A Vintage 1950s TV

You may not remember Paula Anne Patterson a year from now, but you will not forget the wooden iPad frame she created.

Intricately crafted into a Philco Predicta TV, her V-Luxe iPad shell lets you relive the 1950s in style. The iPad fits into a swiveling and tilting frame that serves as the screen of the replica TV, while the base has just enough room for a small speaker system. The entire reproduction can be made of walnut, cherry or African mahogany so there is a colour to match almost every room.

Novelty such as this is not cheap. Offered as a KickStarter project, the V-Luxe shell will set you back $US500. [Kickstarter via Dvice]
