Look at that - it's a log with an iPad slot. Brilliant and simple, isn't it. Made by Twisted Twee, the stand even has eco credentials as it's made from reclaimed London wood. It retails for £35 at Not on the High Street, and the log even has a slot for the wire to come…

Users of Skype are having problems using the phone service again this morning. This is the second time this has happened in just one month.
