Uniea Ltd, short for Universal Electronic Accessories, was founded by Kent Cheng in 2005 who wanted to bring innovative accessories to innovative electronics such to the likes of the iPod, iPhone, and the MacBook. As a major sponsor of MacWorld 2009, Uniea splashed out its latest creation, the Haptique, for MacBook users. The response was strong as many loved the soft, textured surface that is similar in feel to leather in a hard case shell. Unlike leather, the highly advanced process Uniea applies allows for the Haptique to outlast most leather products. Available in black, white, hot pink (yes, hot), blue, green, and orange, one will be able to protect that costly Apple of theirs while attracting the attention of others with Haptiques subtle style. True, I guess hot pink isn’t subtle.

The Haptique wraps snugly around the display and the bottom of the MacBook in two seperate pieces. Access to all the ports and CD slot are retained while all ventilation ports are not hindered from keeping you Mac cool. Don’t worry about the interior of the shell scratching up your MacBook as it’s as smooth as a babies, well, not sure it’s that smooth but it is smooth.

For $49.95, Uniea makes a good case for a good case. Check ‘em out at Uniea.com.

    It must not be an exaggeration to say that Diamond jewelry is still something very special whose traditional appeal is extremely difficult to ignore even by today’s fashion-freak, internet-savvy world. Wearing a diamond necklace, or bangles, or earrings will definitely add values to your presence in a meeting, or family gathering, or in a celebration party. The attraction of this age-old stone is hard to ignore; the shinning brilliance, the glaring reflection emerging out of elegant cuts and the sprinkling prismatic effect – all these contribute to the vanity of this stone. A chic jewelry, when fitted with even a tiny piece of this stone, definitely makes a huge difference.However, purchasing diamond jewelry has never been easy as it is extremely difficult to appraise of the quality of the stone. It needs high-end training, expertise and years of field level experience. Considering the high price of this prestigious stone, and a gradually widening up supply-demand gap lots of poor quality stones are being sold in the name of ‘Original Diamond’. Even more pathetic is the fact that presence of duplicate or fake stones with nearly identical appearance has made the job more difficult for the innocent buyers. You may not get the original one even when you pay for it and when you get the scope to apprehend the fraud, it may be too late for you.Appraisal of a stone like diamond needs thorough learning and the curve is really steep. You need to know the intricate details of the three dimensional crystalline structure of the stone. Like everyone else will suggest, you must have a thorough understanding of the four ‘C’ – Cut, Clarity, Color and Caret of diamond. Each stone is graded as per these standards by Certifying agencies like GIA and those certificates, containing complex symbolic representation, are rather difficult to understand. It is just like a pathological report that can be understood only by Doctors.So if you are keen to buy the original one, the best place to do so is it to go to the gem store of highest reputation in your nearby locality. You may have to pay 10% to 20% more for the stone but it worth paying that much extra as you may not be duped considering the goodwill of the seller you have trusted.The biggest problem arises if you want to purchase diamond jewelry at discount price! You can find some local stores offering discounts, but you have to triple-check the quality and authenticity of the stone. Otherwise you may be duped by a poor quality stone, or worse with a fake one.Good news is that there are some genuine online stores selling diamond jewelry at discount price. Those stores, like certifying agencies such as GIA, have earned global reputation as well. Some of them even offer you decent discounts, easy monthly re-payment option, 30-Day money back offer and even free shipping offers along with authenticity certificate of the stone you purchase. You cannot deny that for a precious product such as diamond, even 20%-30% discount will be a huge savings.Therefore, if you are not sure about how to appraise of the authenticity of a precious stone such as diamond, it is always better to purchase them online. You are definitely going to get some price benefit without compromising with the quality.
