Sneaker/Trainer Tourism

I'm not sure whether to be excited or disappointed by the news I've just read: SoleSearch (a sneaker search directory) has just made available for the Iphone. Designed to be used all over the globe, this handy little tool can help you find boutiques all over the globe.

Pros: quite helpful on trips to other cities and far off lands for must-have kicks.

Cons: takes away a lot of the need for research and being "in the know" to find the latest Nike release. Surely anyone in L.A. who catches wind of the fact that you only have to camp out for 24 hours for a pair of Yeezy's will book a flight and save the headache/luda asking price on ebay.
Also, not all of us have iphones... wahh wahhhh.

Behold...

Absolute Fire... the wait may finally be over! Apple has been working on a tablet for some time now and though it could "change at any time" it is rumored to be basically like a "giant iphone". The screen on the mock-ups is 10". Early figures are coming in at $700-$900 and it will come in two editions (one for education and one with a webcam). Gizmodo did not publish the code name under which this project is being worked on but claims that the first prototype emerged in 2008 and that they have been working on this concept for 4-6 years.

Look for the official release coming as early as this fall!
