Incase has just announced two new offerings for the iPad 2, both made of premium leather and available in two sophisticated colorways. The iconic Apple-loving brand has upgraded its iPad Portfolio ($130) and Book Jacket Select ($100) in the soft and supple leather, with a luxurious look and plenty of function inside. Both designs will be available soon online in premium leather in either gray with port accents or black with gray accents.

The Leather Portfolio (above left) zips up into a slim carry-along, but unfolds into a full iPad workstation when necessary. The premium leather case comes complete with plenty of pockets for papers or accessories, a magnetic smart cover to help your iPad 2 sleep and wake, and easily converts to a stand for viewing or working.

The slimmer Leather Book Jacket Select (above right) is a simpler portfolio that has suede lining and keeps your iPad safe and sound while still allowing users full access, including a precision-cut camera port so you can stay snap-happy. The book jacket easily converts into a helpful stand that has three different viewing positions, including a low-profile angle for typing. The slim case also includes a sturdy elastic strap to keep things locked down when you’re not using your pad.

Both items are made with genuine leather that has been bathed in aniline dye and gently buffed and waxed by hand for a rich patina that will become more unique over time. The cases are accented with high-quality cotton twill or suede trim.

This smart display alternative can now use AI to plan all your meals

The Skylight Cal Max installed on a wall.

Skylight is a smart home company that produces a variety of smart display alternatives, such as the Skylight Cal Max. These serve as a central hub for all your daily planning -- they’re primarily used as a digital calendar, but you can also use them to track chores, make lists, or meal prep. That last aspect just became much more exciting, as Skylight is officially introducing Sidekick, an AI-powered assistant that can plan all your meals in just a few minutes.

Sidekick is a new AI feature for Skylight devices. It’s capable of generating personalized recipes based on your budget, family size, and dietary restrictions, and it’ll even create a shopping list and load up step-by-step cooking instructions. Skylight hopes the new feature will save families 10 hours every month, as they’ll no longer need to worry about the logistics surrounding meal prep.

Smarten up your holiday scene with the Govee Icicle Lights

The Govee Icicle Lights.

Keen to make your home this holiday season look fantastic? If you’re aiming for a National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation style appearance but want it smarter, you need more than just the Philips Hue deals going on. Right now, you can buy the Govee Icicle Lights set for just $90 at Best Buy so you’re saving $50 off the regular price of $140. They make the outside of your home look gorgeous while being super practical. Here’s all you need to know before you buy.

Why you should buy the Govee Icicle Lights
I love Govee products. Since buying the Govee Lyra Smart Floor Lamp, I’ve been consistently impressed by how well its products work while being very keenly priced. It’s a different kind of technology than the best cheap smart light bulbs but it’s perfect for stringing together some lights around your home or room. The only downside is the company's app isn't as stylish as the Hue one but you get all the same benefits for a much better price.
