Had the privilege of getting into the Press and Designer's Day last week and met some awesome people. So I really do not keep up with car news, but here are my highlights from the show.

And while I would not spend the money to buy an iPad, I can see Apple's growing success just through its business use. Restaurants use it for menus and every company uses them for interactive displays and videos at the trade show.

Here are my highlights of Restoration Hardware's current home collection.

The pieces celebrate artisanal details, original cast iron hardware, industrial patinas and fine belgian linens.

Both MINI and Smart unveiled electric scooter concepts at the 2010 Paris Motor Show.

While I love and lust for a customized MINI, I am not crazy about the design aesthetic applied to their Mini Scooter E Concept. It's too much going on for me. I much prefer the simplicity of the Smart Escooter. Both feature the iPhone 4 as its control interface, although MINI's has a cover that protects it from the elements while Smart's is exposed.
