'Frustration-free packaging' slow to catch on (Ben Patterson)

September 10, 2010

Ben Patterson - Just the other day, I got bitten by one of those hard plastic clamshell cases that retailers still seem to love.

Remains of the Day: Schooled by the iPad (Macworld.com)

Fortunately, the remainders for Thursday, September 9, 2010 are free of charge.
