What is this?!

[sippo]

I received this in the post this morning.

 

Any idea's what it is. It doesn't turn on/light up/turn on. I'm currently using it as a pen holder...

It looks like some sort of notepad...

[sippo]

Nope you can't write on it. The black bit is like rubber.

I would've said mousemat, but it's a little small for that.

Looks like a stand for a PDA or phone. I have something similar on my desk at home (but it has USB ports and a card reader built in).

Ah.

 

The black bit looked like a leather bound notebook.

 

 

Maybe it IS a pen holder?

I thought it looked like something you would win at a rubbish awards ceremony

[danbuntu]

ohh soooo jealous - I want one :-(

[Little-Miss]

crappy phone stand....

[sippo]

Ah, thankyou oh wise ones. Think a pen holder is better!

Is it magnetic? A paper clip holder? And I would take it the rubber bit is so it doesn’t get all scratched up

Is it magnetic?

 

If it is then it can be used as a "Hard Disk Error Eradication Device"

You need to own a horse first....

 

I think it's a cheap phone / tablet stand.

I doubt it's magnetic as he has pencils stuck to it!!

[north-ict]

It could be like a calendar thing or something that required them to stick something to the black area of the actual thing (eg rip off calendar, notepad). Or something to your school to say thank you and they just sent a blank one by mistake lol. I dunno *shrugs*

Clearly it uses wood magnets. If not, how on earth are the pencils sticking to it?

Aren't you supposed to stick post-its on it? Looks like it could be for that?

[Rawns]

Heat it up and see if any magical markings appear on it...

[Pete10141748]

First reaction is that it's meant for a phone or PDA or something similar to be displayed on it.

Honestly, you people. Pencils contain LEAD, and LEAD is like, a METAL, right, so obviously they will stick to magnets.

Spill some blood over it, see if a genie appears!

 

Also does it has flavour?
