The Allan's ESV1 Unboxed

Esv_in_boxStill waiting for your Allan's ESV1 to arrive in the mail? In the UK, they're already arriving on doorsteps. Geoff Youngs received his -- he ordered the black version -- and has posted a series of unboxing photos on his blog, Frafferz. Looks like the moment he opened it flat, the ESV1 coiled itself into a yoga pose just to show off. It's a beautiful thing.I warn you, though: if you have work to do and you're already struggling to think of something other than the little bundle of highland goatskin en route to your door, this is not a link you want to click on.
