The design of the Tulip E-Go notebooks mainly aims young women who use mobile computers, but want to demonstrate their unique style and taste. Tulip E-Go notebooks will be available in numerous variations of leather cover with different patterns, all of them very lively, and one with cover inlaid with diamonds.
